Price tag policy (Hebrew: מדיניות תג מחיר is, according to B'Tselem, the name given to "acts of random violence aimed at the Palestinian population and Israeli security forces"[1] by radical Israeli settlers, who, according to the New York Times, "exact a price from local Palestinians or from the Israeli security forces for any action taken against their settlement enterprise"The Wall Street Journal states that the term refers to "a campaign of retribution by fundamentalist Israeli youths against Palestinians in the West Bank".[5]

they also occur in Israel proper

I would encourage not to rely on Wikipedia for your information.

Peace Now lists what it considers to be the major price tag attacks of the past two years.

Almost none of them involve violence of any kind. Usually graffiti, sometimes destruction of property.

wow heard it here first folks

And here are Palestinians stealing cars...

Is that terror in your view?

but you now say car theft is terror?

...what's the point going on?

it's non-violent but when Palestinians do it then it's terror nope no double standards there


up next

any time someone has been injured by a rock......... thrown by a Palestinian that is

that's incomprehensible but don't let that stop the accusations, your really good at spinning stuff out nothing

but it seems any resistance by Palestinians is terror or so we're told

However some IDF soldier uses a teargas canister as a weapon by aiming it at the head of demon strater and it's defending Israel's right to exist or something

That's what I've always taken it to mean.

Strange how many reports I've read where "price taggers" have been given a wink by the IDF, which stands by to protect them. Strange how the "price taggers" are free to set fire to Olive groves, and to enter Palestinian neighborhoods fully armed and with impunity, the IDF standing by.

Strange how so many go all the way and settle in "outposts", many of which endure and become new "settlements". Strange how the Palestinian point of view - say the point of view of a family whose house, property, farmland, has been sprayed with "skunk" - is ignored, deleted from Israeli accounts. Strange how that, too, isn't considered "terror". Nor the night raids, the kidnapping and jailing of Palestinians by the IDF. The arbitrariness of it all. That, too, isn't considered "terror". And nor is it "terror" when a whole village of Palestinians in area C is forced to relocate, in a "population transfer" 100% determined by Israeli policy.
Any more than the "lawful and just" relocation of the Bedouin of the Negev into ghettos separated from the mainstream Israeli economy, in favor of Jewish only settlements and development.

Here's why all that isn't considered "terror". Because all that is product of a complete lack of empathy, of fellow human feeling.

...is a form of non-violent resistance.

How adorable.

"We have tried absolutely everything, from doing nothing, to tut-tutting in government press releases, to doing nothing again."

"I know, its amazing right? We can apparently intercept artillery rockets in mid-air, but as yet the precise means of preventing youths from torching mosques is beyond us. Its just so frustrating."

...than Hamas and Islamic Jihad "militants".

A terrorist is worse than a militant, right?

Obviously, price-tag settlers are far worse.

Even if they are not.
