Purim in Hebron.

filkaler
Hebron, Palestine - March 2008.
Israeli settlers attack a Palestinian school during the festival of purim. The Koltaba School in Tel Ramada, Hebron is often the target of settlers as it is situated next door to the hard line settlement of Beit Hadassah.

    • its less a story about the israeli-palastinian conflict and more a clinic on gossip.
      israeli settlers decide to use a celebratory event to encite violence? they can set fire to the school any time but now during thier festival with thier children this is the strategic time to do it?really?
      previous attacks on this school are not actually reported. just spoken of as fact. like the harvesting organs. or killing of christian children.just spreading more of the usual

      This incident took place during the Jewish festival of Purim. Throughout this festival a person is "obligated to drink" (Gemora, Megillah 7b) which would explain settlers lack of tactics.

      I would have happily interviewed one of the settlers involved in that nights altercation, however when approached none of them were prepared to speak on camera.

      In response to your claim that the settler attacks in Hebron are unfounded I refer you to the following website:
