    They are terrorists who act with impunity because they know the IDF and Israeli government support them, regardless of what Netanyahu said

    “Israeli settlers”

    How about the more appropriate term: Israeli terrorists.

    Think about it, they surround homes and starve families. They beat the shit out of people, while stealing their homes and belongings. They carry guns to intimidate and maim. Actually, they are state sponsored terrorists, as the government looks the other way. Colonialists gives some connotation that what they are doing is not filled with violence and terror. A more charged term should be used.

    All Israeli “settlers” are terrorists, and should be treated as such. Their eradication should be a common goal of us all.

    They’re Israeli terrorists. The fact that western media only refers to them as “settlers” shows their inherent bias and preference for zionism.

    “Colonialist genocide is okay when the jews do it”

    ‘Settlers’ sounds like people who moved to an area for a sea change.

    “Pika and Walter moved here during COVID, when they found they could work from home. Pika particularly likes the cool breeze that comes in most afternoons, and the relaxed pace of life in the village. Walter grumbles a little, but it’s obvious he loves working in the garden most days”.

    In reality, they’re terrorists as much as the IDF. Fuck 'em!

    “We’ve just kicked the door in to your house and beat the shit out of you. We may even have murdered some of you! We don’t know, and honestly couldn’t be arsed to find out. But your shit is ours now. All of it. Fuck off while we still let you. There you go. Yes, take Granny, but leave the infant; we need something for soccer practice”.

    Arseholes. Imagine it happening in a civilised world.

    I’d highly recommend channel 5 news on YouTube’s series on Palestine for an actual look at whether it’s a “handful” of people causing issues.
