Settler violence: It comes with the territory
Unlike any other aspect of the occupation, settler violence is something nobody outside the radical fringe in Israel will defend. This, alone, they’ll denounce. And yet, nobody — in Israel or internationally — has found the political will to put a stop to the decades-long phenomenon, even when the victims are U.S. citizens. By Larry Derfner…

Two sides of the same coin: How soldiers and settlers complete each other
Most of the time, soldiers and settlers are not adversaries; they are two sides completing each other. The settlers despoil the Palestinians of their land, and the soldiers pretend they have no choice but to defend them.

When the police say the residents of Qusra fabricated the incident, they are actually saying the residents committed the felony of a false report.
