Excuse me, but the settlers have been locked in their homes for two years. They are shot at if they leave their compound and stoned and shot at if they even have a funeral. Perhaps the Arabs should leave seeing how they are the ones causing all the violence.

According to the Jerusalem Post, the Israeli government is blaming the settlers for what happened.

It sounds like the Israeli government is re-focusing their efforts. They're backing off on Palestinians in general and going after Hamas hard. Now they're proving that they are at least willing to criticize the zealots. The next few weeks should be interesting, providing the GOI sticks to this path the next time Hamas or Hezbollah tries to divert the peace process with an attack.

Of course the Jpost blames the Jews, they rioted. That kinda crap is not tolerated by Israel. Jews are held to a much higher standard than the Arabs are inside Israel. For example, a jew throws a rock at a car and he will go to prison for endangering a life.

But trust me, tossing rocks at anybody having a funeral procession for a terror victim will tend to raise tempers. People for some reason don't like having rocks tossed at weeping widows and children. When the rock tossers are the killers it floats like a lead balloon.
