A lot of the problem in this thread is from people immediately willing to look at one crazy as representative of an entire group, whether it is the infamous "settlers" or the ulra orthodox Haredi, who whatever one thinks of full time Yeshiva learning are in no way violent.

Right, one crazy as representative of an entire group. Indicative of those who bring preconceived notions to the conversation. As I noted earlier, Bigotry 101

Alot of the problem in this thread is...

One person goes off his rocker (the murderer) and all of a sudden all the nazis here become arm chair shrinks, foaming at the mouth - so anxious to trash all religious Jews, Calling God's Chosen "homicidal paranoid psychotics"!, lazy leaches sucking from society and draining a system, insane subversive idiots!!! who refuse to submit to the orders of Rice/Bush who are NOT even their elected leaders! Hmmmm?

It IS getting worse, but the very least we can do is call a spade a spade! Appeasement comes in many forms. Bullying takes on many forms.

Sorry, but there a higher than baseline population of homicidal paranoid PSYCHOTICS among the settlers.

Isreal's subsidizing the radicals who don't work, but rather sit around all day with their pals in the religious schools is going to come back to haunt them.

People who have to work, take care of kids, make food, etc. don't have time to fill their heads with crazy thoughts, and also understand better the consequences of their actions.

Former_ACLU IS 100% correct. Lots of these settlers are INSANE. It is high time for them to pull out, and start heeding the wishes of Sec'y of State Rice. I am weary of these IDIOTS doing their best to SUBVERT President Bush.
