Israel has approved the largest seizure of land in the occupied West Bank in over three decades and advanced plans to build thousands of new settlement homes, according to Peace Now, an Israeli anti-settlement monitoring group.
“The international community considers the settlements illegal or illegitimate, and the Palestinians say they are the main barrier to a lasting peace agreement.
But with more than 500,000 Israeli settlers living in the West Bank, it will be difficult – some say impossible – to partition the territory as part of a two-state solution.”
So fucking kick them out, they are there illegally by international law. Settler ass holes.
They did it in gaza, they could do it again in the west bank. It might cost a few thousand settlers and/or soldiers their lives but it would be worth it if it means lasting peace.

And let’s call them what they are: colonists.
I didn’t know that over 5% of the population lives in illegal settlements.
