They are well researched and of very high quality I believe. One of them deals with settlements and other Israeli infrastructure and their impact on Palestinians: http://www.ochaopt.org/documents/TheHumanitarianImpactOfIsraeliInfrastructureTheWestBank_full.pdf The other one deals with settler violence and the 'price tag' strategy in which groups of settlers would exact a “price” against Palestinians and their property in response to attempts by the Israeli authorities to dismantle “unauthorized” settlement outposts: http://www.ochaopt.org/documents/ocha_opt_settler_violence_fact_sheet_2009_11_15_english.pdf The organisation I work for supports among others a small Palestinian cooperative in the West Bank to produce organic olive oil. One of their greatest worries is the nearby outpost. Recently people from the outpost came and burned a number of olive trees. This hurts!

But I wanted to be very careful in terms of which donations I attacked. Donations specifically to groups which are avowedly pro settler were definitely kosher for attack. Gifts for absorption I wanted to hold off on attacking. But if people can verify that these absorption centers are publicly supporting settling people in the Territories then I'd go after them too. I'd just like to see physical evidence to support this. Not that I disbelieve. It's just that I'm open to attack fr. pro settlerites & need proof before I go out on a limb. I see yr pt.
