U.N.: Israeli Settler Violence in the Occupied West Bank Hits All-Time High

The United Nations is warning that Israeli settler violence in the occupied West Bank has hit an all-time high. Eighteen Palestinians have been killed in settler attacks so far this year, compared with 17 in all of last year. This comes after the Israeli security cabinet earlier this year approved over $430 million to establish 34 new settlements in the West Bank. www.democracynow.org
