I've always been intrigued by this as well (an infamous massacre by some crazed settler for Brooklyn comes to mind as a highlight)...

Betcha Robert Friedman, who has written a book on Meir Kahane, a subsequent book, ""Zealots of Zion: Inside Israel's West Bank Settlement Movement, " and a recent one on the Russian Mob, "Red Mafiya, " is a good source.(While doing the journalism for the latter, Friedman found it wise to temporarily find other living quarters due to death threats. The NYT was publishing his work on the Bank of NY money laundering.)

Also, a book, "The Rise of Israel's Radical Right, " by Ehud Sprinzak, Oxford Univ. Press. The Political Cultures of Israel's Radical Right: Commentary on Ehud Sprinzak's The Ascendence of Israel's Radical Right" Richard D. Hecht, Terrorism and Political Violence, Spring 1993 "Jewish Zionist Fundamentalist: The Bloc of the Faithful in Israel (Gush Emunim)" Gideon Aran from Fundamentalisms Observed, Martin E. Marty and R. Scott Appleby, eds., University of Chicago, 1993 The Book and the Sword: The Nationalist Yeshivot and Political Radicalism in Israel" Eliezer Don Yehiya from Accounting for Fundamentalism, Martin E. Marty and R. Scott Appleby, eds., University of Chicago Press, 1995 Jewish Fundamentalism and the Israel Policy" Charles S. Liebman from Fundamentalisms and the State: Remaking Politics, Economies, and Militance, Martin E. Marty and R. Scott Appleby, eds., University of Chicago Press, 1994 "Jewish Fundamentalism and the Israeli-Palestinian Impasse" Ian S. Lustick from Jewish Fundamentalism in Comparative Perspective, Laurence J.
