Advice to Yesha Revenants

I read this report below and I think that the farmer

(a) need not have used any violence unless an actual, imminent threat was apparent.

(b) he should nevertheless make a complaint to the Journalists' Association for the use of non-media vehicles. After all, we complain when the Pals. use, say, ambulances or the Left claim the IDF uses media vehicles.

(c) he should complain to Tzippi Livni on the actions of the UN vehicle.

And remember, always carry a camera. They are so small nowadays, they wouldn't interfere with any pruning.

U.N. Drove Journalists To Cover Story
(IsraelNN.com) An official United Nations vehicle took a reporter and photographer for the Israeli newspaper Ha'aretz past the olive groves of a resident of the Jewish community of Mitzpe Yair Thursday night, causing a confrontation. Ha'aretz alleged that the Jewish farmer jumped on the vehicle and broke the windshield, injuring the driver. However, a resident said that the windshield broke when the driver braked the car and that the Jewish farmer was injured.

The newspaper stated that the U.N. vehicle drove by Mitzpe Yair, in the southern Hevron Hills, after visiting a nearby Arab village. The Jewish farmer charged that their intent was to uproot his trees.
