"No, American in Israel is there too."

True but a real Israelite is a better source than a Californian living in Israel. I don't know that this stuff about trees is true or not and you don't that either but the point is that such things happen, so turning this thread into an anti-Palestinian orgy is not normal in my opinion, however that's just only my opinion of course.

As far as I'm concerned they are both "real Israelite[s]" unless you know something I don't. They are both on the spot.

"anti-Palestinian orgy"

You missed the point. The article, and the Palestinian propaganda machine, even the Israeli Left, is an anti-Settler orgy. In the world at large it is "real Israelites" who are demonized, not those poor Palestinian victims of occupation who have done nothing to deserve their mistreatment.

Just ask the BBC's employee Tom Paulin --

"The interviewer wrote that Paulin, a consistent critic of Israeli conduct towards the Palestinians, clearly abhorred "Brooklyn-born" Jewish settlers. Paulin, a lecturer at Hertford College, Oxford, was then quoted as saying: "They should be shot dead.

"I think they are Nazis, racists, I feel nothing but hatred for them." Earlier in the interview, he was quoted as saying: "I never believed that Israel had the right to exist at all."

What you saw on this thread was a denial and questioning of whether the event actually occurred as claimed by Muslims. This is what I call healthy skepticism given the history of the claimannts.
