For more than six months, a BBC Eye team has been investigating extremist settlers establishing a new type of illegal settlement known as a \\u201cherding outpost\\u201d. Some have been sanctioned by the UK and US governments for forcing Palestinians from their homes as part of a \\u201ccampaign of violence and intimidation\\u201d.
