Israel Needs to Step Up Fight Against Jewish ‘Settler Terrorism’ – Al-Monitor: the Pulse of the Middle East
Seventeen mosques have already been torched within Israel proper and across the Green Line. Graffiti such as “Muhammad is a Pig” has been sprayed on the walls of mosques. Muslim cemeteries have been desecrated. Thousands of olive trees have been uprooted or set on fire. Property has been vandalized.
