The soldiers they removed from the border were sent to Cisjordania to help colonize it, so it’s entirely possible they just underestimated the threat and thought they could focus on expanding their colonial system elsewhere.

But more importantly: organize to try and make the world a better place.

And besides, actually doing stuff that you think to be meaningful helps with feeling better.
