Yitzhar Extremists: All Settlers Must Fight Construction Freeze
Local Editor
Far-rightists from the West Bank settlement of Yizthar issued a letter responding to the recent clashes between settlers and "Israel" Forces troops, stating that the fight against government restrictions and the West Bank construction freeze relates to all West Bank settlers, "Israeli" daily Haaretz learned on Friday.
"This is not just Yitzhar's battle but every settler's fight," the letter sent to settlers in Har Bracha, Itamar and Elon Moreh stated, adding that "on such days, in which the restrictions on the settlements are multiplying, the battle against them is of great importance."
"The recent clashes unfortunately escalated too far, and we are now conducting an internal investigation, so that if we have to deal with such events in the future, we will be able to do so in a more correct manner," the letter added.
"Israeli" Police raided Yitzhar early Thursday morning, arresting seven settlers suspected of involvement in attacks on Palestinians. Four more settlers were arrested soon after.

Yitzhar has been at the forefront of the settler movement's campaign, which calls for violent retaliation for "Israeli" government restrictions on Jewish building in the occupied West Bank. Settlers have launched numerous attacks on Palestinians, including an arson attack on a mosque in December 2009.
