Israel's real West Bank problem is not settler violence - it is the settlement enterprise - opinion
Middle East2 sources2 countries🔦 Under-reported33m ago
The ongoing expansion of Israeli settlements and outposts in the West Bank has fueled a rise in settler violence against Palestinians, with some settlers publicly justifying these attacks as acts of revenge.
While the increase in direct violence has drawn international attention, commentary from within Israel argues that the broader settlement enterprise itself represents a foundational problem, functioning as a form of structural violence against Palestinians that faces little to no opposition among the Israeli Jewish public.
