04-26-06 - Jewish, Christian and secular activists call for an end to Hebron violence The workers claimed that Israeli settlers are now frequently executing planned, violent attacks.

On 22 April 2006, a group of adults and teenagers attacked a Palestinian shop using sharpened metal poles. They assaulted children and international volunteers in the process.
This is the only view of the settlers that Americans will get to see. Mainstream American media will rarely if ever print the ugly truth about the violence by some settlers.

Forget about this one and the like-minded one from today's news by the WCC - it's highly doubtful that one whiff of them will make a blip on the MSM radar.
