JABA, Occupied West Bank: A West Bank mosque was set on fire Tuesday with graffiti on its walls raising suspicion that settlers carried out the attack in response to plans to remove 30 families from a disputed enclave.

Scrawled in Hebrew were the words “Ulpana War,” referring to a neighborhood in a West Bank settlement where Israel’s government is set to dismantle five apartment blocks deemed illegal under Israeli law because they were built on privately owned Palestinian land.

Palestinians and the World Court consider all Israeli settlements in the occupied West Bank illegal.

Israel disputes this, citing Biblical claims to the territory it captured in a 1967 war.

Around three meters of the mosque’s interior wall and carpeting were scorched.

“At 1 o’clock we heard screaming from the people of the village and realized the mosque was on fire. More than 300 people awoke and we managed to put it out,” said Abdul Karim Sharaf, the mayor of Jaba village, where the attack occurred.

“After that we saw the writing, racist writing,” he said. “This is great injustice clear to the world.”

An Israeli police spokesman said investigators were “looking into the possibility that it was a ‘price tag’ attack” – referring to retribution settlers say they will exact for any attempt by the Israeli government to curb Jewish settlement in the West Bank.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu condemned the attack, calling the assailants “intolerant and irresponsible lawbreakers” and said they would be brought to justice.

Nabil Abu Rudeineh, spokesman for Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, criticized the Israeli government’s record in prosecuting “Price Tag” attackers, who have set fire to mosques in the past, as well as damaging Israeli military installations in the West Bank.

“Condemnation is not enough. He must stop this aggression against our places of worship and people by holding those who perpetrate these acts accountable,” Abu Rudeineh said.

According to Israeli human rights group B’Tselem, the vandalizing of the mosque in Jaba was the 10th time since 2009 that settlers scrawled hostile graffiti or attempted arson on places of worship in the West Bank.

Though Israeli authorities made arrests in a few of the cases, there have been no prosecutions for the crimes.

“Looking at the history of the Israeli government in holding to account settlers for these kinds of acts, it’s minimal,” B’Tselem spokesman Sarit Michaeli said.

The incident came as a July 1 deadline approaches for Netanyahu’s government, in accordance with a court ruling, to tear down the Ulpana buildings, home to about 30 families in the Beit El settlement.

Palestinians fear Israeli settlements will deny them a viable state, refusing to return to peace negotiations until settlement activity is frozen. Netanyahu has called on Abbas to restart negotiations, without preconditions.

Because the evil Palestinians use it to summon dark powers which they use to destroy Israel and take over the world.

Absolutely wrong to even think about that.

Jewish settlers are hated among many Jewish Israelis too. Theyre extremists. And we know all religions have ones.

Yes they do. Many stereotypes think that all jewish people are bad, whilst others (most, I should say), hate the palestinians.
