"Don't you understand that terrorist elements are using you in a cynical manner? These events and activities do not and will not help, and they are pointless. Demand your rights from those who continue to oppress you," IDF official says.

The
IDF Spokesperson's Unit on Tuesday posted two videos on its official
Facebook page in Arabic in an effort to dissuade the residents of the
Gaza Strip from participating in a mass march on the Israel-Gaza border on Friday.
Hamas, the terrorist group that rules Gaza,
has called for a series of "peaceful protests" beginning March 30, when
the Palestinians mark Land Day. Tens of thousands of Palestinians are
expected to take part in the so-called "March of Return." Hamas urged
Palestinians in the West Bank to clash with Israeli security forces and
settlers in solidarity.
Under the headline "Not a Return –
Anarchy," the IDF urged Gazans to open their eyes to the fact that Hamas
is using the march to divert their attention from the internal problems
facing the residents of the coastal enclave.
"A protest march? Popular demonstrations?
It's a provocation," IDF Spokesman in Arabic Maj. Avichay Adraee says in
one of the videos.
"Hamas is organizing a march and calling on
the people of Gaza to head toward the border with Israel, to deflect
their attention from the water, unemployment, filth, sewage,
electricity. Would it not be better to take care of all these problems
before calling on the people to risk their lives?" he asks.
"Don't you understand that terrorist
elements are using you in a cynical manner? These events and activities
do not and will not help, and they are pointless," Adraee continues.
"Demand your rights from those who continue to oppress you rather than
care about your problems, and who take what you deserve and your money
for the purpose of digging useless tunnels. The choice is in your
hands."
Meanwhile, Israeli, Palestinian, Jordanian and Egyptian security officials have been secretly cooperating with the aim of preventing the Hamas-orchestrated march from becoming violent.
Police Commissioner Roni Alsheikh said
Monday that his forces are coordinating with the military and "are ready
for any scenario."
Palestinian protests are expected to gain
momentum ahead of Israel's 70th Independence Day in April and are likely
to be fueled further by the U.S. Embassy's move to Jerusalem, slated
for May.
