Katz goes all out against IDF attempts to reduce Jewish violence against Palestinians - analysis
Defense minister tries to veto IDF Central Command Chief Avi Bluth from using restraining orders on alleged Jewish extremists after already blocking administrative detention
Assessment
Defense Minister Katz is directly challenging the IDF's ability to manage Jewish extremist violence, escalating a conflict with his own military command. By already blocking administrative detention and now opposing restraining orders, he is removing legal tools that the IDF considers necessary for order in the West Bank. The question is whether the military will implement its own tactics over ministerial objections.
