Summary

Israeli settlers in the West Bank, emboldened by Trump’s return and a far-right Israeli government, are pushing for formal sovereignty over the territory.

Settlement activity has surged to record levels under Prime Minister Netanyahu, with nearly 6,000 acres designated as state land in 2024 and dozens of new outposts established.

While settlers see this as fulfilling Biblical claims, Palestinians view it as erasing hopes for a future state.

Critics warn annexation could jeopardize regional stability and U.S.-brokered normalization efforts, such as those with Saudi Arabia.

    The naivety is in assuming you’ll get support from a group you’re literally murdering or from people who recognize the damage that supporting such behavior does within a group of people whom a significant percentage identify as a minority population.

    If you watch someone curb stomp another person for no fucking reason you dont walk over and high five them. You actively disassociate from that person because they’re fucking nuts and dangerous.

    All you assholes did was tell a significant portion of people that you’d happily curb stomp them at the earliest convenience. At the same time you tried to gaslight them with disingenuous arguments about protecting them and other minority groups.

    If you’re unwilling to protect one minority group from a fucking genocide who the fuck is going to think you’ll protect them from harassment? Access to mental / healthcare? Economic opportunities? Safety within their communities?

    You fucking wouldnt even bother to stop fucking arm sales and you think you can gaslight people by holding up other minority groups as possible victims as reasons to support your candidate? Fuck off with that noise.

    Yet here you are already tossing another minority group under the bus

    Oops! And you wonder why we dont support you or buy your morally bankrupt philosophy to enable your behavior.

    You’re literally the rapist whispering in their victims ear just let it happen or steve is going to get his chance to do this to you. Its disgusting.

    I cant stress thus enough: Kindly fuck off.
