rylah Your comment would only carry meaning if you applied the same standard to Palestinians but you dont. So cut the "blood libel" crap. There is significant evidence built up in the Dumas case, were it a Palestinian who murdered a Jewish family we would not be having this conversation because he would then be presumed guilty by you. The presumption of innocence depends on ethnicity not principle.
There are bad people and good people in all groups. And there are people who will endlessly make excuses for evil acts from their own side.
Israel recognizes a serious problem with extremist settlers, as do their moderate settler peers, but they enjoy powerful political protection and the support of enablers. Kudos to Israel for pursuing this despite political resistance. Palestinian authorities fail in this regard when it comes to murder. If it was a Palestinian, in Israeli custody, he would be tried and convicted, the pro-pal side would proclaim innocence and police abuse....kind of like some of the pro-Israel side here.

Extremist Jewish settler who burnt alive Dawabsheh family acquitted : Peoples Dispatch
He admitted to planning the torching of a Palestinian home in a racially motivated conspiracy and to marking out the Palestinian village with another co-accused. In exchange, he escaped conviction for planning the family’s murder, but he will be convicted of conspiracy to commit arson in a racially motivated crime, as well as being involved in other hate crimes.
Palestinian authorities fail in this regard when it comes to murder.
These attacks happen in Israeli controlled areas. The PA has no authority there.
Indeed. But what happens when a Palestinian commits an act of terrorism...does the PA work with the authorities to capture him? Do they condemn it, work to root it out? Just curious...
Facts remain the same, the court explicitly gave a ruling (which is neither the final one) that excludes the Jewish teenager from connection to Duma and several other accusations against him.
That you want to deflect from this projecting what I may do in an alternative reality,
and keep accusing Jews shows more your motivation than my standards.
Accuse me of double standards while you accuse people of what the court didn't because they're Jews, while knowing it to be false.
The Israeli community condemned, jailed the suspects, and organized prayer throughout the country for the recovery of the family in hospital.
So It's not about supporting such an action, rather along the process was revealed much of history and evidence by the residents themselves that make many in the Israeli public reluctant to concluding their opinion based on media spins before the hearings even ended.
Yet you accuse their valid criticism as the same prejudice that you're using against that is rather based on projecting ethnic character than on facts.
