It wasn't uncommon to hear about israeli settlers attacking palestinian villages. the most brutal one in my memory being the settler that burned down a palestinian family home while the family was still inside, leaving one surviving child (the Dawabsheh family). Settlers poison palestinian wells and burn palestinian crops and olive trees and attack children coming "to close" to their settlements. I saw a video where a settler let a dog loose on children and there was a struggle to get a palestinian childs leg out of this dogs mouth. What im saying is that settlers have always been violent ppl that believe palestinians are an inferior race.
Now what's different is they r attacking everyday. Everyday they are attacking the same villages over and over (Huwara, Umm Safa, Turmusayya, Jalud, Urif, Silwan the list goes on) Committing arson on palestinian cars and businesses and homes while palestinians are still inside. They have guns. They have been shooting at palestinians from a distance. And this is not a few here and there it's literal droves of israelis coming down from their settlements and unleashing havoc.
And israeli occupation forces are helping them and letting them get away with it.
I'm gonna say this twice. This is how the israeli state was created. This is how the israeli state was created. The israeli state was created through acts of terror against a palestinian population which made the palestinians in 1948 and 1967 flee. How will these acts of terror happening daily now affect the palestinians of these villages? Do u think parents are not going to try to flee to another village?
This is not to say that palestinians haven't been fighting back. I never want to leave an image of absolute despair and helplessness. Palestinians have been able to repel these attacks and stand their ground.
This video was uploaded 21 hours ago (making this post June 25, 2023) and it shows Palestinian firefighters carrying palestinian children rescued from burning homes from Umm Safa, Ramallah.
Qudsnen reported that 10 homes and 7 cars were set on fire in Umm Safa
Palestinian youth of Umm Safa are creating blockades and burning tires to keep the israeli settlers at bay
....
Tuesday night and last Wednesday (June 20/21, 2023), 400 settlers came down on Palestinian village Turmusayya and Omar Qattin (a father of two) was shot dead in midst of helping pull children out of fires.
...
Urif village, South of Nablus had an arson attack three days ago and the settlers notably video footage showed settlers invading a mosque and ripped a Quran apart. Again they have imposed this narrative that we are religious/biblical enemies.
This is going to get much worse. The israeli Minister of Security, Ben Gvir, called on the violence to continue and said, "There needs to be a full settlement here. Not just here but on all the hilltops around us. We have to settle the land of Israel and at the same time need to launch a military campaign, blow up buildings, assassinate terrorists. Not one, or two, but dozens, hundreds, or if needed, thousands."
Settlers are encouraged by this call for genocide to expand their so called state.

i literally cannot get over dana terrace watching owl house illegally. they couldn’t have given her a zip drive of episodes? a courtsey disney+ subscription? i can’t imagine being paywalled out of your own work.
games that i think would be great, but no one will ever make:
lord of the ring ‘farming’ sims
like, the ring has been destroyed, peace has been achieved
sadly, the whole war has left ithilien, the shire, moria, minas morgul, the mirkwood, osgiliath, and tons of other places all across middle earth a dreadful mess
which is the perfect setting for having a random unimportant character go ‘fuck it, now that all the big warriors and heroes have done their job, i’m gonna do mine and plant some fucking flowers here’
and like. rebuild all of the things, and repair stuff, and plant flowers, and just. make all those places the story shows only in ruins be proper, real communities again
