Peloni: Amid the false narrative sold as “Settler Violence” for anti-Israel political purposes, it is important to note that violence within Israeli Arab communities in Israel continues to be characterized almost exclusively by intra-community crime, rather than inter-ethnic conflict with Jewish Israelis, something which has never waivered. Also, despite making up about 20% of Israel’s population, Arab citizens account for more than 70% of all homicide victims in Israel with the number of 2025 Arab homicides being the highest ever. The majority of these killings are related to crime involving illegal firearms and are generally related to gang violence, organized crime, and clan disputes.
