After an Israeli human rights group handed out small video cameras to Palestinians in the West bank, those cameras have been used to capture a number of attacks that would otherwise have gone unreported. In the latest example, an attack by a group of Israeli settlers on a Palestinian farming family Sunday was filmed, and the video released on the internet. Attacks by extremist Israeli Jewish settlers against the indigenous Palestinian population of the West Bank are common, and the incidents have increased as Israeli settlements have expanded on Palestinian land over the last 15 years. In Sunday's attack, an elderly woman, Thamam al-Nawaja, was herding her family's sheep when four masked and armed Israeli settlers came running toward her from the settlement of Susia.--

As a citizen of the USA, I'm ashamed and appalled that my country would support a racist apartheid nation such as Israel.
AIPAC and the Zionists have truly taken control of my government.
May God bless the Palestinian people.

Why would he stand there while they approached with masks and bats?
I don't understand why they wouldn't head to their house and grab
their own bats? That aside, what a disgusting act from a disgusting people.
