Why don't Palestinians have the right to defend themselves too?

Amazing how they are called "Settlers", a term that legitimises them...There are other real words to describe them.

This is what you call a democratic country with American values?

Thanks for Israel for showing it’s true colours to the world! I see only the heartless people still sympathies with Israel

“Heightened tensions”. .. is NOT what I would call this. It’s an occupation.

When Palestinians were driven from his home, it was occupied, his crops were destroyed, family members and friends were killed. A truly strange world we live in where some countries decide who is a terrorist and who is not.

NBC, thanks. Finally you showed the reality. Journalism must be in the truth side. Palestinians are the right side.

That's horrific!! We take for granted having a nation, a government and a passport.
I can't even imagine living in such conditions!!!

This has been going on for years, but im glad a U.S. mainstream outlet is finally reporting on it. There are powerful lobbyist groups trying to ensure no one can criticize or sanction the state of Israel.

History will not speak well of the US involvement in this war.

The lady is clearly lying ! when she said they killed my friend " she wasn’t able to look into a reporter's face. She looked down, blinking her eyes several times and talks fast as she didn’t want him to know that she was lying .

“Most of the settlers are law abiding citizens…” 😂. .. there is an oxymoron. This is like saying most thieves are law abiding citizens.

Glad that this is finally getting the attention it should’ve had long ago.

What justice is this where settlers have more rights and freedoms than the

[abubakar-gdzl]

This what you call real journalism. Showing the world truth

[Saraa]

This is terrible. I feel ashamed, and I do not agree with these settlements at all.

Thank you for reporting the truth!
Now, we know how they really are.
They believe themselves they are above the laws.
They can do whatever they want to get what they want.
