if one police station was raided and weapons taken, it would be a disaster. If the police at other stations took no more precautions to prevent further thefts it would be negligence. If there is a second burglary of a police station it is negligence by the police authorities. And if there is a THIRD burglary of a police station is is proof that someone in the police want to allow burglaries of weapons to happen. Is there anyone who thinks the Israeli police allow repeated burglaries of weapons by Arab terrorists? Then who are the police in Israel allowing to steal weapons? Settlers? Setters? or Settlers? Perhaps I am wrong. It could be gangsters, right wing lunatics, or street criminals. But if three burglaries have happened without the least response of the police to the first two instances, one thing is absolutely certain. The police want whom ever it is to get away with the crime.
