This guy is how I imagine 95% of settlers, just tubby out of shape and unemployable losers who moved to tel Aviv with their more successful parents but they can't afford a house because they have no good jobs or prospects so they just take housing from Palestinians

I imagine a lot of terrible Americans would take this option if it was still available to them

Just the worst loving people on earth

But like, also this, as a tangent. The settler movement might've attracted hardened tough guys who fought and/or were brutalized by Nazis once upon a time

It's genuinely maddening to read news articles and Reddit posts about this situation. It makes all of the astroturfed Ukraine support look insignificant. The average person is 100% behind Israel and their fight against the muslim terrorists.

Weren't holocaust survivors treated horribly in Israel up to the eichmann trial because the zionist settlers who were already there think they were weak pussies who let themselves get slaughtered and also morons for not coming to Palestine with them when they told them to lmao

Shouldn't Hezbollah, at the very least, get upgraded to "soldiers"? They're a uniformed army with ranks.

I know I know, blatant media racism, but really, the gently caress is a fighter

Russia has transferred Western-made weapons captured in Ukraine to the extremist organization Hamas fighting against Israel in an effort to discredit Kyiv, Ukraine's military intelligence (HUR) reported on Oct. 9.

Moscow plans to falsely accuse the Ukrainian military of selling weaponry provided by the U.S. and EU to Hamas, according to HUR.

"As part of the Kremlin's disinformation campaign, these fakes should form the basis of a number of 'revealing articles' and 'investigations' in Western media," the HUR wrote.

According to the intelligence agency, Russian special services plan to use Ruslan Syrovyi, a senior lieutenant from the Ukrainian Border Service who has committed treason and fled to Moscow, as a "source" for this campaign.

"Another provocation by the enemy aims to discredit the Armed Forces of Ukraine and make Western partners cease military aid to our country," HUR said.
