West Bank Police Chief: Most Complaints of "Settler Violence" Are False, Filed by Anarchists
(Ha'aretz) Noa Shpigel - The commander of the Central Unit of the Israel Police's Judea and Samaria District said Tuesday in the Knesset that half of the complaints that Palestinians in the West Bank have filed against settlers since the war in Gaza began have proved to be false. "Most of the complaints are deliberate complaints from radical left-wing organizations which are situated in Tel Aviv," Avishai Mualem told a subcommittee of the Knesset Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee. Mualem called the false complaints a widespread practice that interferes with military activity and damages Israel's reputation.
