Attacks in West Bank
| June 16th, 2008 | Crossposted from The Blog and the BulletKhalid Amayreh blogs:
Last week, the Israeli human rights organization B’Tselem released video clips showing masked Jewish settlers ganging up on and severely beating elderly Palestinian peasants near the town of Yatta, southwest of Hebron. At least three Palestinians were wounded in the unprovoked assault, including a man and his wife, both in their early sixties.
The latest act of settler terror was not an isolated incident, as official Israeli spokespersons would often claim. It represents a disturbing and persistent phenomenon as young and usually heavily armed settlers continue to attack Palestinian farmers, peasants and shepherds and vandalize their property in an effort to drive them away from their lands and villages.

B’Tsalem has a project where they provide videocamera’s to Palestinians and post some of the clips they make. It’s called their ’shooting back’ project.

WTF is with these settlers? If God is giving Jews the land, he can do so without any earthly aid, I would think.
