  1. The text of this report does not identify the nationalities of the attackers. The photo accompanying includes a man wearing a red kaffeyah. The editors should consider deleting the picture unless they know that the attackers were Arabs.

  2. Who attacked whom? Was it Palestinians thinking they were throwing rocks at a Jew? or at an Arab employed by a Jew? or thrown by Jews not realizing they were thrown at someone hired by Jews to make deliveries? Were they trying to rob the truck? And the picture of an urban setting seems a bit unlikely for Yitzhar which has about as many people as a city block in Brooklyn.
