If one is seeking to inflame the situation, an arson attack against a mosque is the way to go. In the latest incident which on the surface appears to be a price tag attack, a mosque in the PA village of Dir Istiya near Ariel was set on fire. There was significant damage to the door and surrounding area from the blaze, which occurred during the night, the eve of 15 Shevat 5774. There was also graffiti on the scene which included “Death to Arabs” and “Revenge for blood spilled”.
While the attack appears to be of the “price tag” variety, there have been cases in the past in which Arabs have targeted mosques in the hope of pointing a finger of blame at Jews. Police are investigating the latest attack.
Just recently many rabbonim affiliated with the dati leumi community have signed a petition condemning price tag attacks, calling them a Chilul Hashem.

ok…
So this is just another anti semitic news source. Pointing fingers at Jews when you don’t know what happened. Equating damage to property to ruthless violence and murder. Blaming problems in Israel just because of the Sellers. They’re the ones who inflame the situation.
But wait… its all their fault. all the new draft laws. They should all be held accountable for the politicians in the Knesset. Maybe ask a real daas toyaraw before posting this garbage.
After all the coverage of some trashy newspaper that had an antisemitic headline. So this is another trashy news source posting antisemitic garbage.
And yes of you disagree with someone by all means say so but say exactly why. It doesn’t give you a right to malshin them at every chance you could . This is just sickening.
