    I’m pro-Israel but they shouldn’t be building settlements on the occupied land.

    It should be if they build settlements, we cut all funding. Period.

      The settlements go against any accord or treaty signed previously in search of peace in the region. But with Netanyahu governing Israel, I don’t see them stopping anytime soon.

      In my humble opinion, as long as terrorist attacks from Hamas and illegal settlements from Israeli settlers keep occurring, peace in the region is impossible.

        The settlements also against the reason for keeping the land. The land was meant as a buffer to avoid invasions.

        If you move people in. You’ve lost that buffer.

          And of course now you need a new buffer… but it wouldn’t harm anyone to move some people there, they’ll just need a little more buffer.

            That is my issue with the settlements. I defeats why they are occupying the land. If you want to annex it, just say so. Don’t pretend it’s for protection then populate it.

              just say so

              Say what? They’re just protecting themselves. It’s not like they’re just terrorists trying to justify their terrorism, so that the support they receive from the US doesn’t get questioned. It’s a matter of life or death. existing in peace, or vanishing. Now tell the civilians to move into the cramped camps so we can bomb them the terrorists.
