    Every settler is a war criminal, every settlement a war crime

    One of my favorite things on the internet is watching a clueless lib retort with “but if that’s true, what about America?” Only to be brutally dogpiled.

      As absolutely unhinged as a lot of these Israeli settlers sound, they are verbatim what white settlers in North America said when they were stealing land.

      Like, saying the US Army was too soft on the indigenous people. Or absolutely losing their minds over the government putting even the most mild “look we’re gonna genocide them and take their land, but you just have to be a little patient” type rules in place. They felt as entitled to the land as Israeli settlers do.
