Why They Lie About ‘Jewish Terrorists’

JL;DR SUMMARY Liel Leibovitz critically examines claims of rising Jewish terrorism by analyzing recent reports of violence in the West Bank, suggesting they are often exaggerated or misrepresented in media narratives. A way out west there was a fella, fella I want to tell you about, fella by the name of Jeff Lebowski. At least, that was the handle his lovin' parents gave him, but he never had much use for it himself. This Lebowski, he called himself the Dude. Now, Dude, that's a name no one would self-apply where I come from. But then, there was a lot about the Dude that didn't make a whole lot of sense to me. And a lot about where he lived, likewise. But then again, maybe that's why I found the place s'durned innarestin'.

Places mentioned

Lubbock, Texas, United States
"We have, for example, a gentleman named Khattab Mohammad Daraghmeh, 26, killed on Jan. 1, not by settlers, but by alert IDF soldiers after he and his fellow terrorists attacked them near the village of Lubban ash-Sharqiya."
Texas, United States
"The reality is far less cinematic. The area was designated as an IDF training zone in the early 1980s, largely because it was, well, empty."
Jerusalem, Israel
"Once again, this is a pattern. As a regional official from Judea and Samaria told Jewish News Syndicate in 2023, Jewish farmers are grazing their sheep in open areas; Arabs don't like that, even if it happens in Area C."
Jerusalem, Israel
"All of this happened, not coincidentally, after a long week of headlines about Israels Very Violent Settlers."
Israel
"Sounds ominous. Except, of course, if you know how to read, in which case you've surely spotted this little line doing a lot of work: killed by Israeli forces or settlers."
Tel Aviv, Tel Aviv District, Israel
"And lest you think that Israelis are not getting in on the action, a Jerusalem Post editorial this week declared that extremist violence is eroding Israels national security from within."
Nablus, Palestinian Territories
"What happens when Palestinian farmers seize a swath of land? Just ask the young Jewish shepherds who were assaulted by a Palestinian mob near Bethlehem in January, or the young Jewish shepherds who were attacked by Palestinians outside of Nablus in February, or any other number of Jewish victims in similar attacks and provocations."
Hebron, Palestinian Territories
"There was also Muhammad Raja Nasrallah, 20, another Palestinian casualty, whose only crime was tossing Molotov cocktails on Israeli soldiers in a planned ambush outside Hebron on Jan. 27."
Riyadh, Saudi Arabia
"According to Regavim, an Israeli NGO that tracks such illegal land grabs, over the past 15 years, for example, the PA--a terror group just as murderous as Hamas, running a despotic and corrupt regime--has built some 100,000 illegal structures, paved more than 3,494 miles of illegal roads, and illegally seized thousands of acres of land by dispatching so-called farmers to de facto seize it."
