These inscriptions testify to the years of intimidation practiced by illegal settlers against the Palestinian population. Threats, arson, and attacks have become part of their daily lives, while Israeli authorities almost never punish those responsible for such crimes.
Palestinians living in the occupied territories constantly live in fear for their lives and the safety of their children, as well as for the preservation of their property and land. Each new day can begin with a raid, confiscation, or attack.
The Israeli army and police often act in collusion with the settlers, covering for their actions. If Palestinians attempt to resist, they are accused of aggression and fired upon.
The system of impunity and inequality before the law has created a situation in the occupied West Bank where one group of people is protected by the state, while another is under constant threat of violence and fear cultivated by the occupation regime.
