Israel's government has responded forcefully to the latest settler provocation. But this movement is news to me:
Footage taken at the mosque on Tuesday showed burned carpets, blackened walls and Hebrew graffiti on an outside wall that read “Price Tag” and “Alei Ayin.”
“Price Tag” refers to a policy adopted by some radical settlers in which they respond to attempts by the Israeli military to curb their building or actions with attacks on Palestinians. Alei Ayin is the name of an unauthorized Jewish settlement outpost in the area, where Israeli security forces demolished several illegal structures and clashed with settlers last week. Soon after the demolitions, a regional Israeli police commander’s car was set on fire.
At some point, the "facts on the ground" you emboldened can come back to haunt you.
