They are arming the settlers. This is now somewhere around 100 dead in the West Bank.

From the article

Samaria Regional Council head Yossi Dagan issued a rare video statement on Shabbat describing the incident: “This incident is a simple incident,” he claimed, saying that the settler family involved was “upstanding,” and a father and “son, a combat soldier on weekend leave” were “attacked with rocks by dozens of wild Hamas supporters.”

the pograms will continue until morale religion improves

This is intentional, the occupation government did the same thing with settlements in Gaza until people started supporting and joining Hamas. This ended up destroying the democratic PLO and Fatah government, giving them an excuse to blockade the stripe and make it unlivable.

Even though the Fatah government which is peaceful and recognizes "Israel" is still in power in the West bank, the occupation army, police, and their settlers continue to target Palestinians in the West bank killing them, and destroying their property. Isn'trael is not going to dismantle those settlements until a violent government takes power in the West bank, giving them an excuse to turn it into Gaza and from that into rubble.

This is what their government wants, and what their flag stands and has always stood for.

This is a classic story here: Settlers attack farmer, farmer retaliates, settlers run to IDF to destroy farm.

Very sad to see.

The following article gives an overview of the background of the situation:

Its just the same as in the history books about the founding of america.

The person that killed the farmer needs to go to jail.

I hope Israel is able to shed itself of those awful rightwing politicians, soon. They embolden those lunatics.
