Israeli settlers storm West Bank village, setting cars and homes ablaze
The attack by hundreds of armed Israeli settlers on Friday left at least one person dead according to local officials, and was one of the largest such attacks this year, according to Palestinian officials.
It's estimated that between 1,000 and 1,200 settlers surrounded the village, and around 500 stormed it just after midday local time on Friday, blocking all the roads in the area.
According to Abu-Alia [head of the village council], the Israeli military arrived at the scene at around 3 p.m. local time, but did not stop the settlers from attacking the village. Instead, Israeli soldiers allowed them to raid homes, prevented Palestinian residents from moving around and blocked ambulances from reaching the injured, he alleged.
Israeli security forces had informed Palestinian officials that the settlers were looking for an Israeli teenager who had gone missing earlier in the day.

What does it take to drop the word Terrorists?
Terrorist means you're waging war with the West without spending a lot of money.
Damn
US would have to switch sides first for that to happen. No ally of the US is a terrorist.
A violent riot is not the same as terrorism.
That's interesting that a thousand "settlers" are rioters but those on Oct 7th are terrorists.
Oct 7th was an organized invasion of Israel by Hamas, a known terrorist organization. They also entered Israel with the express and sole purpose of killing as many Jews/Israelis as possible. The rioters in the West Bank didn't go there to kill people by all accounts. If they had, there would be more than just a single death.
You mean like the over 460 Palestinians killed by Israeli fire in the West Bank since Oct. 7th? Facts do not support your attempts to mitigate what the settlers did and have been doing for a long, long time now.
Buddyboo, stop resetting the clock to Oct. 7th, the world didn’t start then. Israhellonearth has been terrorizing, murdering, and abusing Palestinians long before then.
Also stop watching Ben Shapiro.
Really seems like those settler would classify as terrorists by that definition then
So you're saying this was lawful violence and intimidation?
The settler rioters were not terrorists by that definition, because they were not trying to accomplish a political aim, they were angry and lashing out because islamic terrorists from the West Bank kidnapped and killed (?) a 14 year old child.
