JUST when Israel, and even some Palestinians, began talking about the Lions’ Den phenomenon in the past tense, a large number of fighters belonging to the newly formed Palestinian group marched in the city of Nablus.

“The Den belongs to all of Palestine and believes in the unity of blood, struggle and rifles,” a reference to the kind of collective resistance that surpasses factional interests.
