Palestinians Say

Wonder why the BBC doesn't just send a journalist down to the West Bank to confirm it

Record 129 press members killed in 2025; Israel responsible for 2/3 of deaths

Oh, right.

Yeah they didn't go to any of that in covered wagons, because they would have died. Steamships and crap were required for that land.

They are absolutely terrorists. Any "self-defense" story that israel tries to spin with its genocide in Gaza and other areas is completely undermined by these murderous hordes.

I see a lot of oddly neural coverage of so called settlers. Settlers did this, settlers did that, settlements are illegal, etc. No getting the details on exactly where they intend to "settle" and where the existing population and infrastructure is expected to go. If there's no plan, are they expected to die? How many need to die and how? Details should come up when Isreal insists that these activities are acceptable and backed by their goddamn military.

"Palestinians say"

Oh so it might not be true. Thanks for the qualified statement, I'm sure it's possible that settlers aren't torching everything and killing indiscriminately
