'This is what occupation looks like': MK Cassif says IDF tried to prevent him from entering Kusra
“This is exactly what apartheid looks like. This is exactly what occupation looks like. We will continue to fight against the terror of the occupation and for a just peace," Cassif said
Assessment
MK Cassif's accusation that the IDF blocked his entry to Kusra frames the military's operational decisions as evidence of apartheid and occupation. The incident highlights the ongoing friction between Israeli lawmakers and military authorities in the West Bank. The response from the IDF or political leadership will determine whether this becomes a broader political confrontation.
