Taybeh, a small Christian village in the Binyamin region, recently became the focus of international outrage after reports claimed that Jewish residents had set fire to a historic church. However, multiple investigations revealed that the fire was actually started by Arabs targeting grazing land, and Jewish farmers helped extinguish it before it reached the church. Despite this, global media, religious leaders, and international organizations continued to blame Jewish settlers, fueling a narrative of systematic anti-Christian violence that the data does not support.

Reports and statistics cited by organizations such as Regavim show that many alleged incidents of 'settler violence' are either misclassified, exaggerated, or involve Jewish victims. Meanwhile, violence against Jewish residents by Palestinian Arabs is significantly higher but receives far less attention. The article argues that these misrepresentations are part of a broader campaign to delegitimize Israel and drive a wedge between Christians and Jews, rather than accurately reflect the realities on the ground.
