The settlements claimed that the incident didn’t take place and claimed that Hass was a fraud in reporting the event with intention to harm. The judge in favor of the settlers and said that the accounts on television do not agree with the account of Hass, and also deciding that his report had damaged the community’s reputation. Haaretz stated that it was unable to prepare a defense for the matter and said it was planning to appeal the decision. Hass stated that she provided information of the Palestinian community and stated it was the responsibility of editors to cross-reference this information with other sources such as sources like the IDF or the community of settler.

In 2002 she was honoured with a Prince Claus Award from the Dutch culture and development organisation Prince Claus Fund.
