Your latest post is incorrect as well.
While it is a halach biYadua that Eisav Sonei es Yaakov, that means that one should be all the MORE careful to NOT “fan those flames”.
If you taunt a wild animal then you can’t claim that it bit because it’s a wild animal. It’s true that if it were a cow that it would not have bitten. But it’s also true that it wouldn’t have bitten if you hadn’t taunted it.
The facts are that the “Religious Zionists” came up with their disgraceful “Shema Yisrael HaKosel Kosleinu HaKosel Echad” and needlessly provoked the Arabs which did antagonize the Arabs, on top of the rest of the Zionist aggression, and this was the result as testified by those who lived there and knew exactly what was happening.
To be clear, the Arabs had no right to touch even a single hair on the head of a Jew. But that doesn’t change the sheer recklessness of starting up with them.
