- Were the roles reversed the headline would read "Hamas backed terrorist group attacks Israeli civilians"

- Israel's head of National Security (including police) is a convicted terrorist who got his start with these settlers groups.
  
  They're as much as part of Bibi's government as the militas who tried to overthrow America were a part of Trump's.
  
  They're not officially a part of the administration, but they have complete support of each other.

Blatant terrorism against civilians.

Israelis really are some of the most vile human beings in all of history. I do not have the words to describe the physical feeling of repulsion and disgust I get at hearing their misdeeds. It's the same feeling I get regarding all child murderers and rapists.

- I wouldn't paint all Israelis with that brush. The "settlers," yes, 100% shitbags.

  They are all colonizers benefiting from an apartheid state.

  I hope this means that there will be pressure put on the state and the military to stop this settler violence very soon.

  It really is a lot like trump
  
  The majority doesn't agree with anything they're doing
