Palestinian-American Loui Ridi traveled from Ohio to his home in the West Bank village of Qusra after Israeli settlers began besieging the property. Ridi raised an American flag over his home in hopes of deterring the settlers and confronted at least one settler who entered his land. The siege, which has lasted more than a week, prompted international criticism and calls from Ridi for greater U.S. government protection as Israeli military presence has failed to stop the settlers from encircling Palestinian homes in the area.
