The Never Ending Story of Jewish Violence

It's olive harvest season in the West Bank, and the militant Jewish racists who inhabit the illegal settlements throughout Occupied Palestine are again determined to cause as much grief as possible for struggling Palestinian farmers. Even human rights activists seeking to provide protection for the farmers come under attack from these violent Zionist loons.
Already hundreds of olive trees have been torched in Nablus by these nutcases, some of them hundreds of years old, while the complicit IOF not only refuses to prevent the Jewish attacks but provides them with practical and moral support and goes about arresting and kidnapping Palestinians just for good measure.
Elderly Man, Two Kids Injured In West Bank Settler Attack
Israeli settlers injured six Palestinians as they harvested their olive trees near the illegal Israeli settlement of Brachah.
Medical sources at Radefia hospital told Ma’an that six residents of the village south of Nablus suffered bruises, fractures and wounds after settlers assaulted them. Among the victims were two children and an elderly Palestinian man.
Hospital officials identified the two injured children as eight-year-old Hesham Fayez Fathi Mansur and 12-year-old Madeeha Nassar Rashed Mansur.
70-year-old Fathi Rasheed Mansur, as well as Ibtisam Naasar Rasheed and Manal Wasfi Rasheed Mansur, both 30, were also injured in the attack.
A Palestinian Authority (PA) official responsible for village affairs told Ma’an that “dozens of Israeli settlers” attacked the Palestinians.The official, Ghassan Daghlas, said the settlers “beat and threw stones at the residents” of the village on Friday.

The Israeli army claimed that this was not the day for its “protection” of Burin Village farmers against settler attack during the olive harvest. PNN’s Nablus correspondent confirmed that instead of stopping settlers, the soldiers joined them in the assault Palestinians.
Using stones and bullets, the settlers hit residents as they were picking olives in their fields. Instead of stopping them, “the occupying forces helped the settlers assault citizens and farmers,” PNN’s Nablus correspondent reports. “It is ongoing until now with no serious injuries.”
Palestinians entered their olive fields for harvest today “without coordination and permission,” a military spokesperson said, which is something that the occupying authorities claim they must have.
All Israeli settlements and settlers, including Yitzhar, exist in direct contravention to international law.
to be done away with as much as possible, to deny food and livelihood to the Palestinians.
I don't call them israeli punk squatters for nothing.
The Palestinians need permission to harvest olive groves on THEIR OWN farm land. And the permission comes from buildings on land stolen from their ancestors over 60 years ago.
Fantastic List, COZ. I will file that away in my PUNK SQUATTERS folder.
The oppression is systemic, and the fact that the joos think that there's some kind of difference in looking on, as war-crimes are committed, is testament to the utter lunacy and depravity of the devil-worshipping zoo bastards.
That list is made up of all the settler stuff I had bookmarked in the 'Jewish Terror, Jewish Racism, Settler Violence' bookmark folder in my browser . You should see my bookmark menu, it's crazy. Folders upon folders, and sub-folders, on everything from 9/11 to the holocaust and WWII, Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan, Israeli nukes, USS Liberty, AIPAC and the lobby, Christian Zionism, Zionist media, etc etc.
That's why my comments and blogs are usually choc full of hyperlinks, because the information is always right there. It's a handy system.

I'm not even sure if this shit has posting relevance anymore. It's a never-ending story.

there will come a day when the lives of every single victim will be avenged.

Settlers cut down at least 20 olive trees
can this post serve as a repository that coalesce some of the more graphic crimes of Zion, which capture their MOD and that captivate the human imagination of a detached reader?
obviously, since posts get buried by newer submissions, arrangement would have to be made to allow ready access - possibly a link on the front page?
--Just wondering
I always bookmark new stuff as I come across it, and I'll be updating this blog and its counterpart at my own blog site with new links as I find the time.
I freaked out yesterday when my computer died and refused to turn back on. I thought it had finally shat itself and I was all ready to outlay a grand for a brand new laptop before I discovered that it was only the lead that was faulty. A new lead obviated the problem, thank fuck.
What was so devastating about it, was that I thought I'd lost all my files and bookmarks. If I couldn't turn the computer on, how could I copy my files to disc and import my massive collection of bookmarked references to the next machine?
The moral of the story is that it's worthwhile storing and collecting links in blogs like this, in the event that all goes to shit.

Palestine: The Architecture of Apartheid
by David Parker. October 12, 2008. Interview with Jon Elmer.
In the 2007 publication “Hollow Land“, Eyal Weizman, the Israeli-born, London-based architect, reconceptualized geopolitics in the Occupied Territories. The political space created by Israeli apartheid is a web of total domination and control over Palestinians. The architecture and urban planning inside the territories demonstrate a late-modern colonial occupation. Israel owns the subterranean aquifers beneath Gaza and the West Bank, controls the airspace above, and has weaved a web of Israeli only settlements, highways, and security perimeters throughout the West Bank, while turning Gaza into an open-air prison.
According to Weizman, the natural and built features of the landscape function as weapons and ammunition for the conflict. The Occupied Territories have become a series of layers and territories, each manipulated by the Israeli authorities. Borders are porous for Israelis but solid for Palestinians. Checkpoints are a source of humiliation.
The political power of Israel re-inscribes relationships of force in the organization of the built environment. Contemporary urban warfare in the West Bank and Gaza is a constant destruction and construction of space. At the root of the warfare lies Israeli racism and colonialism.
Lines of occupation in the West Bank and Gaza can change overnight. Borders are flexible for the daily incursions of Israeli forces who inflict torture without sullying their home soil. Palestinian homes are a potential theater of war. Palestinian houses are demolished, their farms destroyed and confiscated.
Weizman depicts the Israeli settlements inside the West Bank as built according to a military design of concentric circles, fences, searchlights and patrol roads. In his lecture at the Canadian Center for Architecture in 2007, he refers to them as “optical matrices radiating out from a proliferation of look-out points/settlements scattered across the landscape”. The psychological effects are calculated; fear is used to induce flight and displace the indigenous Palestinian population from their land; a tactic carried out since the 1948 Nakba, Arabic for ‘catastrophe’.

Enough already
Ehud Barak is trying to make the Israeli government seem tough on settler extremism, when it is anything but
In his illuminating book Occupied Territories: The Untold Story of Israel's Settlements, Gershom Gorenberg describes how the settlement movement was born of government indecision and duality. Taking advantage of factional splits and political ambiguity in 1975, the few hundred members of Gush Emunim – the founding body of ideological, religious West Bank settlers – manipulated their way into gaining permission to remain on Israeli-occupied land, in spite of governmental and military opposition to their presence.
The settlement movement has continued in this vein until today. Throughout this period their exponential growth has been expedited by ongoing governmental ambivalence. Oscillating between covert support and active encouragement, left and right wing governments alike have looked the settlers in one eye and told them to sit still, while, with a wink of the other, they have facilitated their expansion. Settlers built outposts to governments' condemnation, but were gradually provided with electricity and running water and absorbed into existing settlements. Then those outposts built outposts – and so on. Settlers have been raised like naughty children who, despite the tuts, will always have their parents' consent.
This ambivalence has given rise to a dangerous sentiment among settlers of late. Spoilt on the one hand, but restricted on the other, settlers have become increasingly petulant. Even as they are getting away with continued expansion, they feel deprived of their rights. Even as their presence puts an insurmountable obstacle in the way of peace and cripples Palestinian livelihoods, they believe they are the victims of the arrangement.
Since the disengagement from Gaza – which many settlers churlishly term the "expulsion" – more and more settlers feel they are being oppressed; the outcasts of Israel. However, the Gaza withdrawal, too, was an example of governmental duplicity. Even as he seemed to be strong enough for the "confrontation" that the 1975 government had sidestepped, Sharon pandered to the settlement enterprise, relocating entire communities from Gaza to West Bank settlements; from one occupied territory to another.
Belatedly, the Israeli government is starting to learn the perils of having fostered an unruly child in this way. Forever condemning its misdemeanours while simultaneously supplying treats and concessions, successive governments have watched their child grow into a monster. The spoilt-victim attitude has festered and given rise to a new wave of violence of extraordinary ferocity. Even the Israeli army is now fair game for Israeli settlers on the rampage, who are reassured by historical precedent that as long as they shout loud enough, their demands will be met.
Nevertheless, condemnations of the violent fringes of settler society are becoming more widespread. Olmert said of last weekend's rightwing riots near Hebron that he has "had enough of all this violence" and defence minister Barak has raised the possibility of banning rightwing extremists from entering the West Bank.
However, this is not a comprehensive policy, but merely another example of the slapdash approach to disciplining the child, while the treats (land, expansion, support) continue. The words of these prominent politicians will add to the settlers' sense of injustice, while a lack of any real containment will give them free rein to raise hell. Barak's proposals, then, will simply be another log on the fire of settler disorder.
It is time the Israeli government ceased its duplicitous attitude towards the settlements and acted unequivocally, unswervingly and unapologetically. It is for them to put a stop to all settler violence, dismantle all outposts and guard against all provocation, incitement and abuse by settlers towards Palestinians, activists and the authorities. Banning a few extremists and pulling down a couple of houses is not enough when all the other outposts remain and settler attacks on Palestinians continue unabated. A comprehensive and emphatic policy is needed to rescue both Israelis and Palestinians from settler blackmail, until the day comes when a bilateral resolution facilitates an Israeli withdrawal from the Occupied Territories. It is time the spoilt child is told that the game is over.
Unless the settlers are reminded that they are not the victims; unless they are told that they have been allowed to get away with too much, their crimes will only increase. The government may still find confrontation "distressing", but the alternatives are far, far worse.

The 62-year-old Palestinian, Mohammed Al-Kurd, died in occupied Jerusalem on Saturday night, after two weeks of the Israeli policemen's assault on him in his home and forcing him out of it along with his elderly wife.
First they evict the elderly al-Kurd couple from their home, then demolish the tent they erect for shelter - no wonder Mohammed gave up the ghost. They basically forced it out of him.
