Interesting post over at Carl's about the Jewish National Fund's contribution of 3000 trees for a new Arab settlement near Ramallah. Some are complaining that the JNF shouldn't be using its resources for such a thing, and I agree. When people give to the JNF, it's with the understanding that they are giving to Jewish causes. I don't think this fits.

But there's another complaint, and that's from Fatah. They don't mind the trees, it's allowing anyone to know that Jews did something nice that they can't tolerate. It gets in the way of the demonization. These are peace partners? Fatah seething over reports about JNF trees

While you're there, check out the video of the guy who, after a terrorist stabbed he and his wife at a gas station, proceeded to run over said terrorist in his car a couple of times (in his Benz!): Video: Terror victim's husband runs over terrorist. The embedded video at Carl's isn't working for me, but you can watch it at the source.

Gateway has the Reuters video report which is pretty despicable. They don't mention until toward the end that the driver was one of those stabbed by the guy, after making sure you know and can't miss that, "A settler ran over a wounded Palestinian man!!!" Reuters, as usual, is good for self satire and not much else.

Finally, here's video of an Arab woman stabbing a security guard at Kalandiya checkpoint. JPost: Who leaked Kalandiya stabbing clip? [video]

The comments on the YNET clip (the man running over the terrorist) are amazing - overwhelmingly supportive of the driver.

Israelis are fed up with kid-glove treatment of terrorists.

One common refrain in conversations about the release of Gilad Shalit is that "all terrorists responsible for deaths should be killed - then we won't have these dilemmas about releasing murderers".
