Despicable and cowardly act by these colonising settlers. Their racist crimes have gone unreported for far too long.

What do you expect?

The false and fraudulent claims that President Bush and the British government make about supporting “democracy” in the Arab world do not apply to Muslims. If there was any prospect of democracy in the West Bank Mehmood Abbas like the puppet ruler of Palestine would be removed and so would the King of Jordan who is a descendant of the homosexual Lawrence of Arabia, Hosni Mubarak of Egypt, Pervert Musharraf of Pakistan, Hamid Karzai of Afghanistan and all the other tin-pot dictators who are Israel’s moles in the Muslim world.

Hamas in the West Bank in a real democracy would replace the tin-pot Zionist puppet Mehmood Abbas.

It is well known that Hamas talk in the “civilised” language that Zionist butchers and their slaves like President Bush understand and respect.

Whereas Hamas would send these Zionist murderers and marauders to hell instead of allowing them to torture elderly Palestinians in Hebron, the “moderate” Mr Abbas is kept in power in the West Bank because Israel and its slaves need him to annex and colonise the West bank, its land, its water and its wealth.

That is also the reason why the services of Tony Blair the clownish war-criminal have been hired as “peace-maker” to help Israel do all of the above and to build the apartheid wall whilst Tony Blair flitters around making a mockery of the peace he propagates and changes his religion every day (the next think thing Tony Blair will do is shave his head and announce he has been circumcised).

There can of course be peace in the Zionist vision only after Israel and its slaves have taken everything from Muslims including their lives.

I do not understand why supporting democratically elected parties like Hamas has been criminalized by the powers and propaganda of the Israeli lobby and its slaves in the UK and elsewhere.

In order to prevent the shocking and continuing abuse of Muslims MPACUK, like other organisations must openly support Hamas’s bid for power in the West Bank. It is legal under British law and is the right thing to do.

Think about it!

Comments on the article: the people who did this need to punished according to the law. However, it is not an indication of general Israeli behaviour, all societies have people who do bad things.

Comments on Survival for West Bank Muslims: I am white, english, athiest. Your comments are full of hatred for Israel, but also for other Muslims, I find that interesting. Muslims complain about the removal of Saddam in Iraq and yet you call for the overthrow of other Arab\Muslim countries, I find that interesting. Hamas is a right-wing, Islamist, fascist, terrorist organisation who killed fellow Muslims, and you did not condemn it, I find that interesting. Someone who has so much hate of western people and Muslims, I find that strange.

you may be white, and your as athiest as any zionist is. To make it out that these people are just bad apples is pathetic. these people are not abnoraml - the colonisers (self proclaimed - settlers)are the most racist of all the jews in israel.

They are the Klu Klux Klan of the the aparthied regime. Anyone who does not believe me - go to youtube or any of the human rights organisations (i am a member of one of them) and see their reports and thoughts on this community.

Israel is an Aparthied state - the last one in the world and must be challenged.

When all else fails call them a zionist.

Ahhh Colin making yet more excuses for Zionism. What about the hundreds of Palestinians that get killed every year by the Zionists....more 'bad apples' heh?

good in that case I assume you will condemn Israeli soceity for failing to bring them to justice?

but thats the point, Israel fails to bring its scum to justice. because they believe jewish scum is better then goyem palestinians.

A number of comments regarding my original comment. If Israel does not investigate a crime and prosecute if evidence is found, I condemn them. No question. I condemn Hamas throwing Muslims off the roofs to kill them. I condemn Hamas sending rockets in southern Israel to kill civilians. I condemn Israelis killing civilians. I do not condemn Israelis going after people that have sent rockets into Israel.

I do not understand the term apartheid in relation to Israel. In their Parliament there are Arab members, there are Arab members of Israel with equal rights, equal voting rights. Not sure why people here use the term apartheid state.

When people refer to Israeli apartheid, they mean the segregation imposed on the population in the occupied territories, where certain areas and even roads are forbidden for Palestinians to pass through or use.

A recent example, Palestinians in the West Bank have been illegally barred from visiting the Dead Sea beaches. See: http://tinyurl.com/5pcjg7

So far two male settlers have been arrested are being interrogated about their involvement in this crime.

As for Israel being an apartheid state it is not entirely clear what people mean by this. Israel, the internationally recognised state within 1949 boundaries, does discriminate against certain citizens and affords other options / opportunities that it denies others. Israel discriminates against Jewish females by requiring them to undertake military service while allowing other female citizens to avoid such obligation. It discriminates in favour of Israeli males who identify themselves as Palestinians by not requiring them to undertake military service or reserve duty. This discrimination allows those advantaged by the system to benefit from improved career progression and increased income. It is evident that this discrimation does result in significant resentment amongst those who are disadvantaged by this discrimination. It has also until recently allowed discrimation by the JNF, but this has been successfully challenged in the courts. It discriminates against non-Jews insofar as it denies them the opportunity to apply for residency and thus citizenship under the "Right of Return" law.
In relation to the West Bank were the Zionazi state to extend to the territory the full benefits of Israeli civil law it would be in contravention of international law. The Israel military authorities responsible for governing the captured territories are required to apply the law as it stood in the area prior to its capture (i.e. Jordanian law).
It should not be overlooked however that the Palestinian constitutions have discriminated against Jews in equal or greater measure.

RSD can you tell us which palestinian constitution was made after ethnically cleansing hundreds of thousands of jews from palestine.
It seems you always try to excuse the actions of zionist jews who are running a apartheid state,if israel cannot apply israeli civil law because the west bank is occupied territory, do you not think they should have left 39 years ago.
These are just lame excuses for the conitnued occupation of palestine.

Shan et al. IMO Israel should simply unilaterally quit the West Bank and should have done so long ago to break the deadlock. However the premise of UNSCR 242 is Land for Peace, and that has not been forthcoming. The continued occupation has damaged Israel as much as it has damaged the Palestinians.
It is too easily forgotten in the enormity of the Nakhba that Jews were driven out of areas controlled by the Palestinian's allies(?). It is overlooked that the Jews of Hebron, who were not Zionists, were attacked in 1929 and driven out. In the 1947 definition of Palestinian identity Jews were specifically excluded unless they actively participated in combat against Zionists. The Jews of the Old City of Jerusalem were also driven out without regard to whether they were Zionists or not. Following 1949 Jews were denied the opportunity to visit Jerusalem. It was only in the 1960's that the Palestinian leadership changed the definition to afford male Jews who had lived in Palestine prior to 1917, and their male descendants, to acquire Palestinian nationality. This was a fairly cynical piece of politics by that time and none seem to have taken the opportunity, nor perhaps given it any credibility.
IMO a negotiated withdrawl is unachievable in the format of any of the arrangements from Oslo to the Roadmap. IMO Israel should withdraw back to roughly the Green Line and close the border, and from that point the Israeli and Palestinian governments can negotiate international relations as two separate nation states. The problem for the Palestinians with such an approach is that they are reliant on access to Israeli infrastructure and markets if they are to survive as a society. Neither the Fatah nor Hamas administrations has shown any significant capacity to administer a nation state effectively. Both Jordan and Egypt have shown little enthusiasm for open borders with the current or future Palestine, and for (arguably) good reason.
Why doesn't UNRWA operate out of Sinai and Jordan to deliver services to the Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank? The economic benefit to the Egyptians and Jordanians would be significant and it would enable UNRWA to avoid dealing with the IDF. The answer is that neither Egypt nor Jordan want an actively open border with an anarchic Palestine.
My concern about this repeated allegation of apartheid is that it is emotive rather than rational or factual. It is an allegation intended to offend on one hand and validate hatred on the other. It does nothing other than further polarise an already polarised situation. This does not help the creation of a sustainable and successful Palestinian state, it delays it. In the 15 years since the Oslo Accords were signed the attempts to progress towards co-existance have been an unmitigated disaster in which all the social and economic advances that the Palestinians achieved under the occupation have been lost. 15 years ago 70% of the Israelis voted for co-existance and peace, now it would impossible to get 10% to vote for the same. Both sides are to blame, but blaming one side alone merely extends the suffering of both sides. It should also be borne in mind that the Palestinians and the Israelis have more in common than they have differences, when they can recognise that in each other then perhaps peace will come. IMO the characteristic that dominates it that both Palestinians and the Israelis have been cruelly used by their so-called allies in pursuit of objectives which do neither any good.

If one is to make the assumption that the Palestinian people would take the same path as the South African majority at the end of their apartheid; he would know little of the resolve and capability of the Palestinian people.
