Agreed.
This pro-Israel / anti-Palestine shit has got to stop. Call this shit out for the terrorism it is you spineless cowards.
I'm not doubting the story but is there a better source? Regardless, the settlers are scum.
Unfortunately, they'd lose Jewish support. Many US Jews are PEPs (Progressive Except Palestine) so going on the side of the Palestinians would mean a large part of Jewish Americans (notably a large part of those with money/influence) would go Republican the next day. Remember that Hollywood darling Gal Gadot is a despicable IDF apologist.
There is no "likely" option. Both parties don't give a flying shit about the middle east/levant, only difference is that one is pretending to care.While large parts of the Democratic establishment are indeed too friendly towards Israel, one party has some likelihood to do something about it, the other party has none.
The solution should be total BDS until all of the 1967 borders are under full Palestinian control. Starve out Israeli government and businesses until that point.
Obama was quietly quite skeptical of Israel and Netanyahu openly playing favorites with the GOP is starting to turn the tide.
Inertia is important and for now the pro-Israeli elements of the electorate are more important to Democratic leadership than anti-Israeli elements (mostly due to the strong Jewish presence in places like New York, Chicago, and LA), but that has slowly been changing with Netanyahu going all-in on the GOP.

She died because settlers threw rocks at her car. The fact her car crashed is because of that act.Why do they attack them? And why do they use stones and even kill them?
Edit: so it was a car crash!?
OP made it sound like they attacked them and hit them with stones till they were dead.
And Israeli police is investigating.
Shitty nonetheless
Yeah, slowly changing with an emphasis on the 'slowly'. Outside of fringe elements of the party like Sanders and Ocasio-Cortez, Democrats in the House and Senate have had very little bad to say about Netanyahu, and many of the presidential hopefuls in particular, ie Warren, Harris, Booker are not only super pro-Israel, but are scared to death of even remotely being perceived as having criticized it (see Booker's incident with the 'no walls' sign). I seriously doubt Netanyahu's political party of choice is going to dent Democratic support for Israel anytime soon. This really isn't an issue that Democrats need to be defended on, it's alright to criticize them on this without having to bend over to try and cushion those complaints.
Yeah, but I don't think I was the only one who thought they attacked and hit them and ultimately killed them with stones.She died because settlers threw rocks at her car. The fact her car crashed is because of that act.
In most places that is murder, or at best manslaughter.Yeah, but I don't think I was the only one who thought they attacked and hit them and ultimately killed them with stones.
Yes, but there is a difference between dying in a car crash caused by thrown rocks, and literally being stoned to death.She died because settlers threw rocks at her car. The fact her car crashed is because of that act.
The international perspective.What makes the Israeli government "rogue"?
They are very much legitimate, and thus reflects really badly on all Israelis.
Israel threads need to be permanently banned on this forum. There is absolutely no point to them.

Absolutely pointless and just creates an outlet for hate on this website. Look at the first page of this thread. We have literally become an Israeli hate site at this point.

Your comparison is complete nonsense. I would love to hear you make sense of your reply. Go on.I guess black people getting shot by cops threads need to be banned too because it happens a lot right?
Go away.
Great contribution. Really thought-provoking.
I agree we should rather applaud the brave Israeli government for their great job at keeping those filthy palestinians under foot! /sIsrael threads need to be permanently banned on this forum. There is absolutely no point to them.

Nonesense how exactly?Your comparison is complete nonsense. I would love to hear you make sense of your reply. Go on.
The last time I commented in an Israel-related thread was in February 2018. What a sad attempt at a deflection.Nonesense how exactly?
You are the one that need to go on because your other posts on the Palestinian/Israeli threads clearly shows where you stand.

Many of us also do not like some other human rights-violating countries and terrorist organizations very much. So what? Want to ban all those discussions?Israel threads need to be permanently banned on this forum. There is absolutely no point to them.

The entirety of my point is that there isn't a discussion. This thread is a perfect example.Any country that commits human rights abuses can be discussed on this forum. Why should Israel have immunity to that?
Your other posts expose you as an Israeli apologist.The last time I commented in an Israel-related thread was in February 2018. What a sad attempt at a deflection.
I'm waiting for your explanation. You are the one who brought up black people being shot by the police. Please, go on. I'll wait.

Tell Bibi not no call everyone an antisemite as soon as they criticize this shitty, downright criminal government. Maybe then we can have a discussion.The entirety of my point is that there isn't a discussion. This thread is a perfect example.
An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind."Settlers"
Now those are terrorists. Scum of the Earth.
I'd call them something else, something extremely accurate.
But y'know...
Fuck 'em. They should be hanged. Even better, meet a grizzly end, the lot of them, they're not settlers.
They're invaders.
Fucking scum has been making me sick since I was old enough to know.
Should we also demonise palestinians for killing innocent people. This happened days ago and not a peep on this site.Israel threads need to be permanently banned on this forum. There is absolutely no point to them.

Kim Levengrond Yehezkel, 28, and Ziv Hajbi, 35, were shot dead at a factory near the Jewish settlement of Ariel.
He subsequently went to the factory's offices on the second floor, where he tied up and shot Ms Yehezkel, a mother-of-one who was working as a secretary, and Mr Hajbi, a father-of-three who worked in accounting.
He shot another woman in the stomach, moderately wounding her.

What's your point? Murder is is never cool. But according to some of you Israel should get away with it and shall never be criticized.Should we also demonise palestinians for killing innocent people. This happened days ago and not a peep on this site.

So you expect a settlement in the West Bank land AKA Palestinian lands to exist peacefully?Should we also demonise palestinians for killing innocent people. This happened days ago and not a peep on this site.
