Dozens of Palestinians were discovered in a garbage truck. This was poetic justice.

On Monday, Israeli police discovered several dozen Palestinians inside the back of a garbage truck passing from Samaria in the “West Bank” into 1948 Israel. Watch the short video. You should notice a couple of things. The well-armed Israeli forces do not shoot the invaders. They are obviously prepared for any attack from inside Palestine on Wheels, but when no fire is received, none is sent. The loonies on the left tell us that Israel is killing Palestinians all the time; this would have been a perfect opportunity to wipe out the young Palestinian men, but nary a shot was fired. The folks in the truck were not terrorists in all likelihood; rather, they were looking for work. Isn’t it amazing how Palestinians and Mexicans somehow come to terrible, evil, no-good racist countries for reasons unknown? Since the October 7 massacre, Palestinian workers have been told to stay away. Thus, the garbage truck. Maybe they’ll get a reduced sentence for creativity beyond the call of duty.

Who has been replacing Palestinian laborers? Thai, Indian and Chinese workers are part of the solution. We had two Chinese fellows over recently and they did outstanding work; they knew enough Hebrew to communicate and were very efficient. Even the official Israeli building organizations are noting that projects are being completed more quickly and with significantly less theft and defects in the final structures. Uh-oh, Palestinian workers have been shown to be the often lousy and vindictive workers that everyone knew them to be. When China ordered its citizens to leave Israel, many refused: they said that they would rather face Iranian bombs than Chinese starvation. Amazing what a paycheck and freedom of expression can do to a man. It was always assumed that Israel could not survive without Palestinians “doing the work that Israelis will not do”. Well, Israel........
