Sep 4/5 2025: Settlers Perpetrate Massive night Pogrom at Khalet a-Dab’e
Khalet a-Dab’e is in the heart of Masafer Yatta. Somewhat unusually for the region’s Palestinian villages, it sits atop a high hill. That could be one reason why the military and settlers have targeted it so relentlessly. Last week on the night between Thursday and Friday (September 4/5), dozens of settlers descended upon Khalet a-Dab’e and perpetrated a pogrom. At least 50-60 criminals, apparently from the entire region’s settlements and outposts, entered the village and immediately assaulted residents of all ages with bats and iron rods.

Dhimmi Arab refugee populations absolutely reject, together with all other Arab and Muslim countries which refuse to recognize the Jewish state post ’48 and ’67; Jewish equal rights to achieve self determination as defined by the 1917 Balfour Daration and the 1922 Palestine Mandate. Ottoman land laws, which remain on the books in the modern Jewish state today, reject non Ottoman Muslims, both Jews and Arabs from owning Ottoman lands. Dhimmi stateless Arab refugees promote revisionist history, in point of fact during Ottoman rule Arabs existed at best as share-croppers.
Arab Muslim rejection of Zionism rooted in Arab rejection of Jews equal rights to achieve self-determination in the Middle East. All Arab countries opposed and voted against the UN General Assembly vote of 1948 wherein 2/3rds of all UN member states recognized Jews equal rights to achieve self determination in the Middle East as the Palestinian Mandate originally authorized.
The status of dhimmi Arab populations in the context of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is complex, with many Palestinians identifying as refugees or stateless individuals due to the historical events surrounding the establishment of Israel.
