Palestinian Authority Arabs warned on Friday that they will personally stop any ‘price tag’ operations by Jews residing in Judea and Samaria.
A report in the PA-based WAFA news agency said, “The popular committees set up by Palestinians in the villages near Shechem in order to protect their property and the lives of citizens from the settlers, were able to arrest nine settlers who tried to enter the village of Kusra which recently suffered from harassment and arson of its mosque.”
The report was referring to the torching of a mosque in the village last week. The attack on the mosque came several hours after police destroyed three Jewish homes at Migron in the middle of the night.
The report said the nine Jewish residents of Judea and Samaria were released after they were warned not to try to enter the village again. The report went on to claim that one of the Jews fired at five PA Arabs, wounding one of them seriously, and fled along with his friends.
This report was not confirmed by any other sources, but WAFA claimed that one of its photographers who arrived to document the goings on, said that large IDF forces reached the outskirts of the village, blocking the entrance and firing tear gas at the residents. This has not been confirmed elsewhere, either.
The governor of Shechem, Jibril Al-Bakri, said the area residents will continue to defend themselves and personally stop Jews from entering their villages.
“Unfortunately we are warning of the settler’s attacks, but the army and the government do not do anything to put an end to the aggression by settlers,” he said, noting that following the wave of attacks on Arabs by Jews, the Shechem governorate decided to establish and maintain committees whose role is to protect... .....

Muslims play the victim while at the same time being the agressor.
Pardon me, can somebody tell me what ‘Price Tag’ operations are? Thank you.
Tit for Tat!
I guess Arab merchants are going to make Jews pay RETAIL! No more looking at price tags and haggling! This means WAR!
So price tags operations means tit-for-tat?
Thanks for the reply!

hahahah pffft u turd! That was pretty funny!
Eye for Eye is another way of putting it. The Pali’s are saying,” if we do bad stuff to you, we aren’t going to allow you to bad stuff to us”
I have no ideal what constitutes a “Price Tag” operation. Sorry.
Oh, c’mon, that’s just wrong!
But it feels SO right!
(and yes, I am Jewish)
It means “pay back”.
An eye for an eye was intended to limit recompense to appropriateness. It was not about revenge. What the Israeli response should be is something so terrible that the Arabs would be afraid to ever do it again.
Glassing over some oil fields or camel lots might be the only way.
Price to be paid.
If you look at the article at the link, there is a picture of some writing on the side of the mosque which was attacked, and the caption says that the writing is Hebrew for “price tag.” The context of the article would imply that, when a group of Israelis takes revenge for some violent act on the part of the Palestinians, they leave the words “price tag” to explain why they did it. It’s the price the Palestinians pay for their violent acts.
I understand the original intent, I was speaking of it’s “devolved” meaning!
Arabs murder an infant in her bed. Jooos! block an intersection for half an hour.
The attack on the mosque came several hours after police destroyed three Jewish homes at Migron in the middle of the night.
What you say is not applicable in this case. The attack on the mosque was a response by Jews to the destruction of Jewish homes by the Israeli government. Thus it was some Jews doing stuff to other Jews, and then the angered Jews doing something to Muslims. Not really "tit-for-tat" at all.
