REDSTATE (Ward Clark) - New: West Bank Checkpoints to Close on 10/7 Anniversary
This coming week marks the third anniversary of the October 7, 2023 atrocity, when Hamas members invaded southern Israel and committed horrors that decorum prevents us from describing here. Anniversaries often seem to look like opportunities to the kinds of goblins who committed the October 7 attacks. In anticipation of this possibility, as the United States Embassy in Jerusalem warns us, several West Bank checkpoints will be closed on October 5 and October 7.
What event is being commemorated on October 7, 2023, which prompted the closure of West Bank checkpoints?
October 7, 2023, marks the date when Hamas members invaded southern Israel and committed atrocities. Because of the potential for these groups to use the anniversary as an opportunity for further actions, the United States Embassy in Jerusalem advised the closure of several West Bank checkpoints on October 5 and October 7.
