There are approximately 130 illegal Israeli settlements on the West Bank. Settlers clash with Palestinians, and since Oct. 7 more than 130 Palestinians have been killed, some by Israeli soldiers; some by settlers. Israeli soldiers conduct raids, young Palestinians fight back, and the death toll keeps rising.
Almost all of this violence is occurring because of these illegal settlements. Unfortunately Netanyahu needs the rightist settler-backed party to stay in power. Many of the extreme Orthodox settlers think they have some kind of Biblical right to the West Bank, even if it means driving every Palestinian out of the territory.
I am so tired of all the people who justify their evil actions on the basis of fictional scriptures and fictional gods.
