Judea and samaria

The prime minister's comments to Channel 14 followed a statement on Saturday in which he condemned the violent extremist settlers after several of them barricaded themselves inside a Kusra home.

The charge alleges that the defendants acted together and caused bodily injuries to two of the three complainants. The investigation was conducted by PID’s northern team.

All of this takes place as IDF officials have said Jewish extremist violence has reached new levels, with hundreds of extremists recently drawing out a conflict with the IDF.

The E1 area is vital to Jerusalem’s political future, and its importance is equally decisive for Israel’s ability to maintain a defensible border in the east.

Anyone who truly believes that a peaceful solution to this conflict can now be achieved simply through an Israeli withdrawal from the West Bank and the creation of a Palestinian state is naive.

Sukkot could have demanded its removal through the IDF, the government, or the courts. What he could not do was appoint himself judge, enforcement officer, and demolition crew.

The West Bank has been the site of several violent outbreaks in recent weeks at several flashpoints, including Kusra and Gilad Farm near Nablus, as well as Yatta and Sa'ir near Hebron. 

But there is another simpler word for what is happening in parts of the West Bank, and we should not be afraid to use it. On the contrary, we have an obligation to use it. It is “terrorism.”

Israel outlaws all political violence – whether committed by Palestinians or Jews, right-wingers or left-wingers, in the territories or in major cities.

The outpost, known as Givat Or Yehuda, was reportedly the site of a violent incident three months earlier, which Army Radio cited as the reason for Monday's evacuation.
