#1 Why then, at a time when religious and sectarian identity was everywhere breaking through the thin membrane of "national" and "state" loyalty, had this area of non-Muslim sovereignty been spared major strife?

Because their paymasters (Palestinian is, basically, a profession): both oil tick & Western been very busy.

#2 so far this 3rd intifata isn't living up to the hype

the biggist Paleo symps are not you reza Aslam or Roger waters types

#3 their western supporters are still pumping endless grievances out on facebook - the latest is a video claiming to be of israeli soldiers dressed as paleos

in the video they are claimed to be pretending to be protesters, throwing rocks at israeli soldiers to get a response.

then when the soldiers rush in they help to beat up a paleo, one shoots in the leg at close range.

i know this is not the whole story and is likely misrepresented (massively) for propaganda

but that is the kind of crap doing the rounds of the islamofascist FB sites

they are mostly obsessed with syria right now though so you are right, grom

#4 The Israelis dressed as Palestinians, infiltrated the rock-throwing protesters, then fixed the problem, anon1. The Palestinians and their supporters are just upset because it's not fair when the Israelis win fair and square.

#5 the propaganda value of that video is large - have you seen it?

This is how the paleos win western supporters from the left

they post videos like that all over FB

#6 Ah, but I think what the Israelis did was a good thing, anon1, and I'm completely uninterested in the opinion of those who are stupid or vicious enough to be upset by it. Why should the Palestinians get to throw rocks and molotov cocktails for days at Israelis without being harmed in return? And why would anyone object, unless they think that stoning and burning Jews is acceptable behaviour?

Here is the Israeli take on events, from The Times of Israel with video.

#7 I am, perhaps, overreacting a bit. But the flood of propaganda is unending, and the world in which antisemitism is once again fashionable is completely uninterested in the truth. At any rate, the Israelis infiltrated a multi-hour stone-throwing fest, then stopped it. They did not create the situation, nor did they act as provocateurs.

You asked for the truth, anon1, but most of those who believe Israel must be evil because "it is an apartheid Western colony" are not interested in the fact that the only true words in that are it and is. Even if you show them the truth they will not be persuaded.
