Mosque Torched In North Israel, Settlers Suspected
JERUSALEM (AP) A mosque has been torched in an Arab village in northern Israel, and graffiti spray-painted on the walls suggested Jewish settlers or their supporters were involved.
Police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld said a carpet was burned and interior walls were damaged at the mosque in Tuba-Zangria in the Galilee region. Israel Radio also reported that Quran holy books were burned.
Rosenfeld said the words "price tag" were spray painted Monday on the building reference to a settler practice of attacking Palestinians and their property in retaliation for government operations against settlements.
Several weeks ago the government destroyed unauthorized structures in an unauthorized settlement outpost in the West Bank an operation that was followed immediately by another mosque torching.
