Israeli military ‘paralysis’ on settler violence exposed in West Bank siege

The Israeli military is touted as the most powerful in the Middle East, striking targets deep into enemy territory. But for more than a week, Israeli troops have somehow failed to evict a small group of settlers sitting on rocks in the occupied West Bank. Experts says the military has long shown inertia when its task is stopping surging violence against Palestinians, due to government backing for the settlement movement and the increasing influence of settler ideology within the army’s...

West Bank siege exposes Israel army inaction on settler violence

The Israeli military is touted as the most powerful in the Middle East, striking targets deep into enemy territory.

Experts says the military has long shown inertia when its task is stopping surging violence against Palestinians, due to government backing for the settlement movement and the increasing influence of settler ideology within the army's ranks.

Ridi arrived in Qusra late on Monday after traveling from the U.S., fearing he could lose the property to Jewish settlers who have encircled three Palestinian homes in the village for more than a week, prompting U.S. condemnation.

Speaking after two days of diplomacy across the region, Kushner expressed cautious optimism that initial steps to demilitarise the enclave could start taking shape soon despite deep scepticism and lingering impasses. “We could be seeing progress… in as little as 30 days, hopefully starting to take some of the weapons out, and hopefully, you know, filling in some of the tunnels as well,” Kushner told Fox News while in Tel Aviv. The projected timeline followed talks in Jerusalem between Kushner and Netanyahu, during which the two sides agreed that an American general would oversee and verify the decommissioning of weapons held by Hamas. However, Netanyahu remained firm that Israeli forces would not withdraw from the Ga
