So this is what they do; the Arabs and their Leftist accomplices cut down the olive trees themselves and then blame it on the Jewish residents of Samaria. This is not new and it has been stated before, but no one believed it until this video came along. It is a typical underhanded tactic designed by Left wing pali-zombies. This is a clear indication that all their photos of supposed IDF and Jewish aggression against the Arabs are all staged as well. - Michelle

Volunteers from the Shomron Residents Council on Monday filmed Arabs and a foreign leftist activist cutting down trunks of olive trees and branches next to the community of Elon Moreh, to create a provocation.
The incident occurred just one day after the Shomron Residents Council and the Shomron Regional Council came out with a request to local residents to put cameras in their vehicles in order to document provocations by Arabs and extreme leftist activists during the olive harvest season.

Due to the increase, during previous years, in provocations organized by extremist leftists from Israel and from abroad, as well as by Arabs from the area, in preparation for the olive harvest the Shomron Residents Council, together with the Shomron Regional Council, organized a photography course for the residents and Council volunteers.
The Arabs and the leftist extremist who were caught on video were sawing through the trunks and branches and leaving them near the cut off trunks in an area near the Elon Moreh’s homes, as well as in another location near the entrance to the community.
Council volunteers photographed them in the act and called the police.
The Chairman of the Shomron Residents Council, Benny Katzover, said, “Just yesterday we called on the public to equip themselves with cameras in order to document provocations, and already today a provocation was filmed, the act of uprooting olive trees in real time. It's clear to everyone that if the alert volunteers had not recorded the provocation in real time, the whole world would have shouted and condemned the settlers and the State of Israel.”
In the wake of the incident, the head of the Shomron Regional Council, Gershon Mesika, called to act aggressively against the ones staging the uprooting of the olive trees and to distance the provocateurs from the extreme left from the area during the olive harvest season.
“The olive harvest season in recent years has turned into the provocateur's season,” said Mesika. “In light of the extreme left's provocations during the olive harvest in past years, the settlement enterprise has invested much effort, in coordination with the IDF, to prevent extreme leftist organizations and the Palestinian Authority from taking advantage of the season to cause provocations and take other actions.
“I call on the security services to be alert, to understand that these are sequences of events whereby most of them take place when activists from the extreme left, both from Israel and from abroad, are in the area,” he said. “I call on the security services to distance from the area the extreme leftists planning these provocations and thus prevent these incidents from happening and to allow the harvest season to finish quietly.”
Last year, Jewish residents of Judea and Samaria complained that foreign and Israeli anarchists were taking advantage of the olive harvest to help terrorists gather intelligence.
The two terrorists who murdered five members of the Fogel family in March of 2011 had used the olive harvest as an excuse to gather information on Itamar, the victims’ town, and to plan the gruesome murders.

Road Terror Rising: Barrage of Rock Attacks in Judea and Binyamin
Regional Arabs doing what they do best.....

Motorists driving vehicles with Israeli license plates in Judea, Samaria and the Binyamin region are warned to be extra vigilant tonight (Monday): rocks are flying on the roads.
Israeli vehicles were targeted by Palestinian Authority Arabs hurling rocks near Talmon in the Binyamin region. Skillful drivers managed to escape the attackers, however; no one was physically injured and no damage was reported.
IDF soldiers set out to search for the rock throwers.
There were also numerous reports of rock attacks in Judea, which are intended by the perpetrators to kill those they target. The frequency and number of such attacks has increased over the past several months, an ominous sign.
A bus driver reported a rock attack on his vehicle at the northern entrance to Efrat, located less than ten minutes from Jerusalem.
Palestinian Authority Arabs also hurled stones at buses with Israeli license plates near the Beit Anoun junction, just north of Kiryat Arba.
Earlier in the evening, an Israeli bus was attacked by PA Arabs hurling rocks on Highway 60 along the road near the town of El Aroub. None of the passengers were physically injured, but the vehicle was damaged.
IDF soldiers deployed throughout the area to search for the attackers.

The rock attack comes as part of a growing phenomenon known as road terror – lethal attempts by PA Arabs to disable Israeli vehicles and murder their drivers and passengers.
On Monday evening, only the bus was damaged. Some of the passengers were traumatized, and their journeys to their destinations were delayed, but they were physically unharmed.
IDF soldiers fanned out around the site of the attack, near the PA town of El Aroub, a known hotbed of terrorist activity.
Last Tuesday motorists were attacked on the same road in the same manner, a few minutes to the south, near the PA town of Halhoul. No one was physically injured in any of the attacks.
But road terror is intended to kill – and sometimes does.
A little over a year ago, Kiryat Arba resident Asher Palmer and his baby son Yonatan were murdered by two PA Arab road terrorists. Their drive-by rock attack was so clever that it first had police fooled into thinking the deaths of the father and son had resulted from a simple car accident.
