An anti-Settler accusation like this without evidence is just good old fashioned anti-Jewish incitement. The Wadi Hilweh Information Center is a PLO outfit which also accuses Jewish communities of:
– “Raiding” Al Alsa Mosque (i.e. praying on Temple Mount)
– Murdering cats
– Training children to use hunting guns against Palestinians
Where is the right of reply or right to defence? Have the police been involved? Any statement from the local clergy?
Don’t believe everything you read against Jews – especially when accusations come from dubious sources such as IMEMC which is an anti-Israel propaganda organ!
