Despite mentions in a recent US report on terrorism, Israeli - TopicsExpress

Despite mentions in a recent US report on terrorism, Israeli extremist attacks against Palestinians and their property continue unabated, especially in the West Bank. With little to no protection from the Israeli army that occupies their territory, Palestinians have on several occasions in 2014 taken matters into their own hands, taking a kind of neighborhood-watch approach to prevent injuries and damage to their property. Palestinians are probably taking matters into their own hands because of the sheer lack of (Israeli) law enforcement, a spokeswoman for the Palestinian human rights organization al-Haq told Maan.
