	CRIMINAL NEGLIGENCE , SETTLER VIOLENCE AND STATE INACTION DURING
		It is important to differentiate between different kinds of settlers, between the settlers and the settlement movement, and between the individuals and groups prone to violent, vigilante action within the settlement movement and the non-violent majority.
		The fact that almost all settler violence occurs in areas B and C, and that settlers are, as a rule, armed, means that the Palestinian police's ability to combat settler violence is extremely limited.
		Some evidence points at settlers, but either there were no eyewitnesses, or it is unclear whether the victim was killed by a settler or a soldier, or where it is difficult to determine whether the attack was a car accident or whether it was intentional.
