Israel plays a lot nicer with it's own.

Many soldiers and police did not carry weapons, and they sought to avoid using force. But every time they moved toward the outpost, clusters of settlers jumped in their path, and pushing, shoving, shouting and wrestling quickly ensued.

"In the Bible, it says this land is for us," said Moshe Cohen, 27, a university student who arrived from Tel Aviv to take part in the protest. "This land belongs to Israel just as much as Tel Aviv."

"I'm telling the young men to hold strong to the land of Israel and not let anybody take it away from them," said Rabbi Eliyakim Levanon, who came from a nearby settlement.

"The government of Israeli gave the soldiers an order which is immoral," said the white-bearded rabbi, dressed in a black suit and a white dress shirt on a sun-scorched day. "We will try to keep the soldiers from fulfilling the order."

IDF had to do this once before in the Sinai between 1981 and early 1982 when Israel officially withdrew after the Camp David accords. What happens is that a platoon pulls up to the settlements in vehicles. They then take off all of their individual equipment and attempt talking the settlers out. When talking doesn't work, they physically remove them.

From what I understand, the Israeli government compensates the settlers. Such was their policy in the late 70s-early 80s during the Sinai withdrawal.

For one of the best examples in the history of mankind regarding a developing region that went straight to hell without passing go after a voluntary withdrawal, the Sinai ranks up there in the top ten.

Ummm...they were throwing stones. The also jumped in front of bulldozers and actually jumped on the blades. American activists have been killed for that. The police also found stashes of molotov cocktails at the outpost.

It doesn't really matter this is all for show, a new outpost will be built as soon as the army leaves.

how else do you expect them to treat their own citizens?

They had no problem gunning down unarmed Arab citizens back in 2000 for doing less than these settlers do. Admit it, being a citizen in Israel doesn't give you equal treatment by any means.

It seems to me that Israel has been very restrained in their actions after suicide bombings.

But... I'm judging this issue from a view through the "U.S. lens".
If the U.S. had experienced just half the suicide missions that have occurred in Israel, there would either be a U.S. military lock-down of Palestine or no Palestine at all.

Yes and the Palestinians are completely innocent, suffering at the hands of those evil Israeli Jews.

(that was sarcasm for those unable to tell)
