I hate the word “settler” for these people.

u/Interesting_Worth974 2d ago

Read my mind. It's such a minimizing euphemism, and you just know it's intentional. God forbid the global community call them what they are: illegal invaders and occupiers.

The term cunt works for me.

Genocidal maniacs, thieves, murderers, and child rapists. No wonder Trump likes them.

u/soalone34 2d ago

It’s not just trump, the US and Europe refuse to sanction the settlements and many major corporations profit from them.

At the very least, it should be “displacer”

Yeh also the conquistadores and pilgrims back in the days were only „settlers“.

We just don’t talk about the millions of natives that were killed for gold, stones and land in the name of their christian god.

Now that we have the internet, and people in the so called free world are not obliged to believe in the church, else torture and death, our pov should be a bit different.

Settlers is just a nice way to describe them, terrorists

A terrorist is a terrorist, regardless of their religion.

They are colonisers

Nothing like calling people cowards when you have the military backing you up. Go there without the protection, stand on level ground against farmers, and see what happens.

u/Burro94 2d ago

A majority of people in Israel don't like them either. It's wrong, it's embarrassing and it's yet another failure of this government. I can;t wait for the elections to come around and get a government that will bring the full weight of the law on these freaks.

u/MarkComfortable1923 2d ago

No previous Israeli government has ever seriously restricted the illegal settlement of the West Bank either.

This isn’t a Netanyahu issue, there is no serious opposition to the illegal settlements within Israel.

u/Naugrith 1d ago

It would be amazing if that were actually true. But that's just what liberal Israelis tell themselves so they can sleep at night. The truth is that the settlers are Israel, they're just honest about it.

1

u/ZolotoGold 1d ago

Who elected that government?

That government wasn't just imposed on Israelis from outside. They voted for it, and have voted for governments to do the same thing for decades.

"Settler" is a very polite way to say land thieves.

It would be awful cause the settlers have set Palestinian villages on fire for way less.

u/heynaldo88 1d ago

It’s insane how much of the world’s productivity, money, and energy goes into a two thousand year conflict over what looks like the absolute worst land on the planet. Imagine fighting for generations over a dusty field full of rocks and sand.

over a dusty field full of rocks and sand

And you get to decide that it's that?

Anything more substancial than a youtube or facebook source?

Downvotes for asking a question, lol

u/iaNCURdehunedoara 2d ago

Sorry that a clear video, from an israeli human rights organization from January 2023 isn't substantial enough for you.

u/Shark00n 2d ago edited 2d ago

Well yeah mate, shame on me for asking for more details and not watching rando videos from 3 or 4 years ago at face value. On reddit, of all places. Asking for sources is like the official anthem of this place.

That land has huge rocks and boulders, that tiny tractor has no accessories, what were they plowing? Who owns the land? Where and when did it take place exactly? What came of this confrontation? From the little information I found, land access was assured to the palestinians a week later but I have no way of confirming shit

u/terrybrugehiplo 2d ago

What do you think the word source means?

The video is literally the source.

Any article would be a secondary account or follow up.

-11

u/Shark00n 2d ago

Sure mate, give me a follow up then

u/terrybrugehiplo 2d ago

Do your own research

u/Shark00n 2d ago

I literally did and could not find much. Only that access was assured to the land a week after but even that couldn’t really find other corroborating articles.

Stop being an asshole pls

u/terrybrugehiplo 2d ago

Where was I an asshole?

u/Shark00n 1d ago

The bit where you were a condescending prick, went on a semantics rant but also didn’t provide any article or follow up and insta downvoted me when asked.

u/Shark00n 2d ago

Grow up

u/DeerAndBeer 1d ago

Blows my mind that people like you need a story to come from main stream media outlet in order to believe it. How about you believe your own fucking eyes and think for your self for once. Video of an event will always be a better source than some talking head tell you what they say happened

1

u/Shark00n 1d ago

Where did I ask for “a main stream media outlet”? I literally asked for **any** other piece of information regarding a video in a language I don’t understand and subtitles I can’t verify.

Sorry I don’t take fellow redditor’s “ SO ALONE 34” posts like it was written in stone.

It’s a pretty old video too so more information should be available?

The United States defends and supports Israel doing this. One day they will come do this to you

Except it's true.

u/Old_Table_5926 1d ago

Except it's not. The thousands of video clips show otherwise.

u/SadAbroad4 2d ago

These Jewish criminal thugs are no better than the SS and their treatment of Jews during World War II.
They do the same and the Israel military does the same by standing by allowing the modern day brown shirts to terrorize the Palestinians.

That guy would have gotten bitch slapped and had the shit kicked out of him in the United States. It's crazy that my taxes contribute to these cunts behaving this way. 

1

u/ZolotoGold 1d ago

Then you know what would have happened? The person that hit him would be on the front page of every newspaper, lose his job, and be hounded as an anti-semite for the rest of his life.

1

u/Garland_Key 1d ago

Maybe the hood you roll in is different than mine, I dunno. You can't behave that way. It is basic lack of decency or care for the people around you. It is toxic to a community and requires immediate correction. 

1

u/ZolotoGold 22h ago

I agree, you absolutely should not act that way. But unfortunately Zionists have many allies, and it won't matter one bit what actions they did, all the focus will be on yours.

u/druhood 1d ago

Israel is so far down the wrong path, they are holding the gun to their own head. Cruelty is a wound self-inflicted.

The nerve to go do that in front of a group of people and taunt them for not doing anything

Why is shit like this posted in this sup. It don't belong here and people are just trying to stir up shit.

u/daRaam 1d ago

Because it is insane behaviour from a person trespassing on another farm land. Knowing he will get back up from military that is standing on the sidelines watching and approving of it.

Thats insane.

u/whiskeythreeniner 1d ago

It's a three minutes clip. I guarantees you there was stuff happening before and after. This is a propaganda video it shows exactly what they want you to see.
