What else can they do?

This week newspapers published some disturbing photographs of settlers in Palestine. In one of the photographs a settler was seen taking out the belongings of a Palestinian from his house and delivering it to the tent outside. The Palestinian is being thrown out of his house for the settler to occupy it. The original owner will henceforth be living in the makeshift tent. The settler was armed with an Israeli court order for the same. In another more disturbing photograph a settler was seen running his car over a Palestinian. By the grace of Almighty God he survived the attack. These incidents highlight the plight of Palestinians in the occupied territories.

What right do these settlers have to unscrupulously occupy others land and belongings? How can they indulge in such cruelty? How come they don’t have to respect any human rights? Aren’t they equally guilty of occupation as is the state of Israel? What right do they have to cry foul when a Palestinian, long enduring humiliation and imposed hardships, blow himself up in their midst? I am not advocating such acts.Women and children should not be subjected to such acts of violence, no matter what. But my question is what else can the Palestinians do given the shamefully biased and unbelievably mean stand of International community on this long standing issue?
