[0:00](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/2Lu35RiVtfgz/en/senior-idf-officer-condemns-violence-in-jalud-as-a-colossal-failure) These violent incidents overnight are harshly condemned by a senior IDF officer.

[0:03](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/2Lu35RiVtfgz/en/senior-idf-officer-condemns-violence-in-jalud-as-a-colossal-failure?t=3) In the IDF, our correspondent Zvi Yoreler. You bring the full, scathing quotes.

[0:07](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/2Lu35RiVtfgz/en/senior-idf-officer-condemns-violence-in-jalud-as-a-colossal-failure?t=7) The IDF announces tonight that there was a colossal failure here.

[0:10](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/2Lu35RiVtfgz/en/senior-idf-officer-condemns-violence-in-jalud-as-a-colossal-failure?t=10) The great army that knows how to strike Iran and eliminate Hamas brigade commanders in Gaza, as we will soon see, has repeatedly failed against Jewish terrorists who come from within us, and there was an error here, both conceptual and operational.

[0:22](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/2Lu35RiVtfgz/en/senior-idf-officer-condemns-violence-in-jalud-as-a-colossal-failure?t=22) The Samaria Brigade commander truly did not notify the Judea and Samaria Police.

[0:26](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/2Lu35RiVtfgz/en/senior-idf-officer-condemns-violence-in-jalud-as-a-colossal-failure?t=26) He thought he could do it alone with a relatively small force and comply with a High Court order. So let us see the very scathing remarks that a senior IDF officer tells me tonight.

[0:33](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/2Lu35RiVtfgz/en/senior-idf-officer-condemns-violence-in-jalud-as-a-colossal-failure?t=33) A senior IDF officer. “These rioters are the scum of the human race, Jewish terrorists, our children, yours and mine,” he told me. “They will yet pay the price for their crimes.”

[0:44](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/2Lu35RiVtfgz/en/senior-idf-officer-condemns-violence-in-jalud-as-a-colossal-failure?t=44) He says they will pay that price 15 years down the road.

[0:48](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/2Lu35RiVtfgz/en/senior-idf-officer-condemns-violence-in-jalud-as-a-colossal-failure?t=48) This is a level of violence and organization we have not seen before. And when we say organization, Udi, what do we mean? As Yossi also noted in the report, the moment the terrorists realized, the Jewish terrorists, that the IDF was about to return the Palestinian family, it spread on Telegram, two hundred rioters block roads,

[1:04](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/2Lu35RiVtfgz/en/senior-idf-officer-condemns-violence-in-jalud-as-a-colossal-failure?t=64) block Jalud, burn homes, burn vehicles and businesses and behave like a terrorist army in every respect. Now the message from Central Command chief Major General Avi Bluth and the commander of the Judea and Samaria Division, Brigadier General Kobi Heller, to IDF commanders in the territories: We will return the

[1:19](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/2Lu35RiVtfgz/en/senior-idf-officer-condemns-violence-in-jalud-as-a-colossal-failure?t=79) Palestinian family to its home. There is a High Court order, the IDF is obliged to comply with it, and this family will return.

[1:26](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/2Lu35RiVtfgz/en/senior-idf-officer-condemns-violence-in-jalud-as-a-colossal-failure?t=86) This time, they will come with more forces. I hope that this time they also won't underestimate this enemy from within, the Jewish terrorists in the territories, who, the IDF warns, of course receive backing from what is called the political arm, the silence of Ben Gvir and Smotrich,
