Settlers torch chicken coop in Nablus, official says
Published Sunday 17/03/2013 (updated) 19/03/2013 16:41
NABLUS (Ma'an) -- A group of settlers set fire to a chicken coop in a Nablus village on Sunday, a Palestinian Authority official said.

Ghassan Daghlas, who monitors settlement activities in the northern West Bank, told Ma'an that settlers from Migdalim set fire to a chicken coop belonging to Jamal Abu Rida in nearby Qusra village.

Daghlas called on the international community to end settler attacks against Palestinians.

Settler violence against Palestinian communities and their property is routine in the occupied West Bank, with settlers enjoying widespread impunity for their crimes.

Annual figures compiled by Israeli rights group Yesh Din have repeatedly shown that nine out of 10 police investigations about settler crimes fail to lead to a prosecution.

The settlers are out of control with their demented Messianic violence. The army is out of control abetting it and the government is out of control contracting out its expansionist agenda to a half-mad vanguard on the frontier. The West Bank needs UN Peacekeeping forces to bring some decent, sane values to the fetid, sadistic world the occupied territories have become.

nothing more reprehensible, evil, revolting and mentally diseased than cold-blooded murder of defenseless, innocent life. this vicious terrorist behavior makes Hitler look docile compared to the heinous wickedness of the illegal criminal squatters! their hearts are dead and black. oh wait, they have no hearts because they aren't human or even in any class of living things. they are scum thugs.

Pestering Palestinians off their land is Israeli policy. The outside world will tolerate it as long as Israel is needed as a forward Western bastion in the Mideast. Change must come from the people themselves, one way or another.

so these honourable settlers allow chickens to burn to death - because they want to harass their owners and destroy their livelihood - for no reason other than they are Palestinians. Vile, disgusting people, these settlers. "Depraved" is spot on, Maureen/Australia. ditto "Scum thugs", Julie/USA. And where are all you Israel apologists speaking out on this? Or is it that you approve?
