Illegal Israeli settlements: Construction creep in occupied West Bank

Dror Etkes is an Israeli researcher who has been documenting the illegal building and expansion of settlements in the occupied West Bank for nearly 20 years.
He is one of the leading voices on what has been happening in the occupied West Bank over the years, and has set up an NGO to work on that.

Al Jazeera’s Stefanie Dekker went for a drive with Etkes, and he showed her how illegal settlements have been growing - both settlements recognised by Israel and those considered illegal outposts.
Both, according to Etkes, serve the same aim: a government-sanctioned land grab.

It is very sad and heartbreaking to see Palestinians experience oppression, deprived of their rights, and expelled from their own homes without being able to do anything.

Why are settlers not identified and prosecuted for theft of land.

Native Americans believe the land of America is holy and left to them by their ancestors and religious deities. How are they not able to claim that "God gave the land to them" ??😕

May all of the oppressors get trapped and punished severely by almighty God.

I wonder what the US UK Germany etc who unconditionally support Israel have to say about all these...

Will they still use the " right to defend itself " slogan

[commentwhendrunk]

Glad that my country is not anywhere near the border of Israel...otherwise might wake up one day and there they are cooking in mine kitchen with their utensils.

[Shinebrightcrystallight]

While I believe Israel has a right to exist, these settlements are quite sickening
