US ‘concerned’ over rising Israeli settler violence in West Bank

State Department spokesperson Matthew Miller said on Monday that the US is “deeply concerned” about escalating violence by Israeli settlers against Palestinians in the occupied West Bank, following reports of settlers setting fire to homes, cars and olive trees near Ramallah.

Miller added that the US has conveyed these concerns to the Israeli government, stressing the need for authorities to take all necessary steps to de-escalate the situation and ensure accountability for all involved.

It has been going on for years, the US was never bothered about it before. Words are cheap.

I'm tired of hearing the state department saying they're deeply concerned about out Israel's actions but unwilling to do anything about it. Those settlers are doing the states bidding. Israel must be held accountable for their settlers!
