My 2nd daughter visited Hebron. The settlers set up armed camps that are like fortresses. She said the hate in the air was palpable. They are a stain on Israel and I cry for the good liberal Israelis of Tel Aviv who so deeply oppose this.
Wow. I lived in armed camps as a young man in a war zone. My family was safe on the other side of the world. The idea of moving my family to live like that seems insane. It is horrible for the people it is thrust upon against their wish, but to choose it!?
The Gush Emunim Party is behind this, Israel's most radical right. They represent the settlers.
This is all about the settlers. The 10/7 attack is barely a footnote.
Netanyahu has already announced new settlements in Gaza. More stolen land. Next up? Lebanon and Syria.
Israel's moral standing was destroyed for me decades ago. I learned about the settlers. Utterly vile people.
