Settlers refuse to leave Palestinian villages
Edited on Thu May-12-05 05:17 AM by pelsar
Settlers entered Palestinian villages on the West Bank in two separate incidents Thursday, and refused to adhere to Israel Defense Forces orders to leave the villages immediately.

Settlers from the West Bank settlement of Yitzhar refused to leave the village of Ruman near Tul Karm, while some 20 yeshiva students from the Alon Moreh settlement were arrested in the Palestinian village of Ein Bidan near Nablus. A large IDF force alerted to the area is still chasing after more students who managed to escape from the soldiers.

my gut reaction?...i would love to be one of those soldiers in the army units chasing those POS and beating the shit out of them...... (interesting note, my anger towards them is real, while I dont have the same kind of emotional rage/anger at all towards the palestenians when they try to blow me up....)

1. I sympathize.
These are the same fellows that are exempt from military service?

2. kids..
many times they're under 17 which makes it difficult to actually arrest them + they have booklets which tell them what they should do when arrested and lawyers ready to move in when needed....they've been preparing for this for quite some time now

3. Teens make great cannon fodder.
That is why armies love them, no fear and just hoping someone
will tell them what to think and do.
