IDF, police to hold meeting on rising settler violence
Bring on the bulldozers ...

Judea and Samaria police and IDF Central Command officers said Sunday they would hold a joint meeting on Tuesday in the face of growing settler violence toward Palestinians and security officials.

The announcement followed two incidents over the Purim holiday in which settlers from Yitzhar, near Nablus, entered the nearby Palestinian village of Asira Qibliyya, threw rocks and caused damage to property.

In both cases, on Friday morning and on Saturday night, the settlers clashed with security forces who were called in to drive the settlers away.

One settler was arrested Sunday morning, and another - a 16-year-old - was detained Saturday night.
