Jewish settlers on Thursday threw a poisonous substance in a water well in the east of Yatta, south of al-Khalil, in an attempt to kill local residents and their animals.

Local official Rateb al-Jabour said that settlers from the illegal settlement of Maon in eastern Yatta threw a blue toxic substance in a water well used by local shepherds in al-Hamra area in eastern Yatta.

He said that local shepherds in eastern Yatta are exposed to almost daily assaults by Jewish settlers in order to force them to leave their native areas.

Comment: Coincidentally traditional texts judge poisoners of the village well as some of the worst criminals possible - and behavior like this is the norm for Israel's illegal settlers:

I'm so tired of reading these stories about Israeli settlers' atrocities. It's like living downwind from a sewage treatment plant - you cannot get the stench out of your nostrils.

Lemuel Gulliver Good analogy.

Tribal conflict. There's nothing to be done about it except wait for them to grow out of the tribal stage. The biggest problem is that Israel has much greater access to high-tech weaponry. They (and the Palestinians) should be stripped of this by the international community until they can prove themselves to be mature enough to handle it. If there was any international community worthy of the name to wield authority in the matter, that is.

lsjarvi FFS.... really?

micV Yep. Tribal is a regressive, but intractable, fact of a particular level of us vs. them consciousness. Sorry to to offend with non-PC facts. Can't be helped.

When one social/religious/political group dehumanizes another social/religious/political group, it's tribalism in action. In the past, when tribes went to war, it was hand-to-hand combat. People slowly learn to respect and make room for other human beings, and the conflict eventually peters out. When tribalism rears its head nowadays, destruction and death can happen by remote control, and the battle remains ideological. Nobody learns anything about the fact that the people they are dehumanizing are just people. Both sides can justify their hatred and sense of superiority/victimhood forever. We're witnessing this in the endless animosity and inhumane treatment between the Israelis and the Palestinians. Call it what it is: tribalism.

lsjarvi yes... we [in the 'grown up' tribes] should take the high tech weaponry off the Palestinians [and Israelis]

yes... tribalism

micV Fair point! It's not like Americans or Western Europeans are entirely free of tribal behavior. However, it's getting harder in this country to dehumanize other people just because they don't belong to one's tribe. Witness the fact that the MSM has been instructed to work its collective fanny off to dehumanize Russia, and to no avail. Also witness the backlash against restricting immigration, led by the SJW movement. Driving the SJW ethic is an insistence that welcoming everyone with open arms is the only ethical stance to have. Is this an over-reaction against tribalism? Absolutely! There's nothing realistic about opening the borders to floods of immigrants. However, these trends are indications that tribalism doesn't readily motivate people in 21st century America. For the most part, people have to be convinced that they personally are threatened with attack before they want to harm people from a social group that is foreign to them.

Do the Palestinians and Israelis need justification for their hatreds and mutual persecution? No. They create the justification, ad infinitum. One side will provoke attack in order to assert their own victimhood, then dehumanize the other in order to claim superiority. On and on and on it goes.

It's the Hatfields and the McCoys, writ large. That finally petered out after they got sick and tired of the mindless death and destruction, and enough of them realized how stupid it was. They grew out of their dehumanization of one another. They grew out of their tribalism.

When will the Israelis and Palestinians do the same?

lsjarvi I think you are talking about a disease that afflicts humans. When it finishes in one place, it just moves to another. And they cycle continues. The aggressors always justify themselves. Many Germans did in Nazi Germany and many Jews do that now.

Eventide · 2019-04-28T15:34:30Z

Ruth Yes, it is a disease of a certain stage of consciousness. I'm hoping that progress in consciousness is helping to cure the disease to some extent. As I've noted, I think there are signs of it - albeit with an opposite-extreme pendulum swing in some cases (the SJW phenomenon being a case in point.)
