- Palestinians living alongside hundreds of thousands of Israeli settlers in the Israeli-occupied West Bank and East Jerusalem say that increasing violence has left them worried for their lives and futures. The United Nations says that violent settler attacks on Palestinians have increased since the Hamas terror attacks of October 7th and the war in Gaza. Locals interviewed in our report say international sanctions against some settlers are not helping to curb the violence.
Earlier this spring, in March 2024, Israel seized 800 hectares of land in the West Bank, with Israel's extreme-right Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich declaring sections in the northern Jordan Valley, near the Israeli settlement of Yafit, to be “state lands.” Israeli settlements in the Palestinian territories are illegal under international law.

The fact that Isreali politicians refuse to act and even support these settlers shows how unserious they are about long term peace.
UNRWA rules of descendant return is the reason no long term peace is possible, it would end Israel as a nation/state.
Peace takes 2
I think with Hamas oct 7th attack most said peaple have very little sympathy for them.

Are you surprised? Their leadership has come right out and said they want to take Gaza and "push the Palestinians out". Where exactly does that mean they want them to go? Let's just say they're not hiding their feelings. If anyone thinks all of this unaliing by the Israelis is accidental, then you're simply not listening to them. This is genocide. It's as simple as that.
Not at all. Which is why Israel as a whole has to be sanctioned.
For what? They never show the Arab violence no problem want to punish us with sunctions? Then don't give them their 'aid' also
HAHAHAHAHAA

You have two settlers in the government, who openly support ethnic cleansing of west bank ans Gaza. Its pretty clear that the Isreali government is very comfortable with what the settlers are doing.

Is Palestinian and other nations going to recognize Israel
@@JeffEbe-te2xs
First off, Israel took Palestine's land from them. That's like going into someone's home, stealing it, forcing them to live in the basement, then asking if everyone agrees that the thieves should get to keep the house. With that being said, most sensible people just want Israel to stop the genocide and let Palestine live in peace. Call Hamas terrorists all you like, but it was Palestine's land and it was taken from them. No one would just roll over and accept that.
@@JeffEbe-te2xs85% of UN countries already recognise the state of Israel. The Palestinian National Authority, meanwhile, officially recognised Israel three decades ago.
@@anzus762 Did you also check if the 85% agree with Israel's current borders and apartheid system?
AIPAC money is blood money.
the idea of forcing people out because your supposed ancestors were somewhere thousands of years ago is as silly as it sounds if we weren't fed this as normal.
Imagine if American Indian Populations decided that your land was thiers 1000 years ago and all Americans had to get out. Same exact thing is happening with this ignorance.
It's truly ridiculous. I'm flabbergasted when some people seriously say that
I think it shows how far right, extreme religious, or/and how much of a bubble they are now.
@@adamward9310 if they could they would have done that. imagine the indians population wining 7 wars against americans... and still think they are in the wrong
That word salad downplaying settler violence/ethnic cleansing from the guest is a fair representation of Isreali liberals. "Do your ethnic cleansing but stop being so embrassing about it."
"word salad" is code for "i'm not listening, I'm willfully blind and ignorant".
Crimes, crimes over crimes...
If its a Palestinian, then attack is terrorist attack. But if it's isreali, then its settler violence but not terrorism.
Strange logic
21st century and these settlers still behaving like they are in stone age...
It's crazy that we live in a world where paramedics have to wear a bulletproof vest to save lives 3:21

Enforcing the law in the West Bank? ... which law? civil law under which Nazisraeli live ... or military law under which Palestinians are denied human rights ... because it seems to me that both laws are upheld in the West Bank, it is called apartheid ... wtf is this guy talking about?
Is dw already regretting a bit their support for genocide? Shame on Germany, once again.
None. Many are dual US Israeli citizens, with vast connections abroad. They are protected.
Not a racist etnostate at all
**What is the proportional response for Palestinians with the occupation and the killing that they had every year by IDF?
**What can be their response if they are kicked out of their homes and living in a prison and IDF kill there women and children every year and the world is supporting the killer?

You should instead ask "how effective were decades of accommodating terrorists masquerading as politicians and giving terrorists and murderers billions in foreign aid?"
have they not.

If netanyahu doesn't want to be called a terrorist, he simply needs to stop behaving like a terrorist.

There shouldn't be settlers for a start
Settlers = landgrabbers.
In 2018 Israeli soldiers shot over 6,000 Palestinians. In many cases they were shot with illegal expanding ammunition. So, did the present iteration of this problem begin on 7th October 2023 (1,200 casualties) or March/Dec 2018 (6,000 casualties) Discus ??
DW? The tide must be turning
They have reported about this for ages. They have a Two States stance, pretty much in line with the German foreign policy stance and public opinion. The crucial issue that holds Germany back from a more proPalestinian stance are security issues. Every terror attack on Israel alienates the German public and political elite from the Palestinians.
Same goes for the settlements. Almost nobody supports the settlements out of themselves. However some people buy into the argument that they allow Israel to establish defensive lines beyond its borders, thus they are important for the defense of Israel's civilians. Without the constant security threat support for the settlements would be nil and international pressure would be mounting.
@@aaron.aaron.v.b.9448 on paper. Remember the US's official stance vis-à-vis Palestine and Israel mirrors that of most if not all European nations and their actions of late including German's tell of a strong Israeli leaning. Remember Scholtz a month ago in a speech said that the protection of the state of Israel is Germany's modus operandi (which if I were German would be very worried). But I think your point is valid that there has been shift in public opinion and I believe that's what's causing DW to become more neutral on their reporting. As proof, notice how they didn't include the line "Hamas is considered to be a terrorist organization by most European countries".

Palestine sovereign state will make Israel safer place as Palestine will have state responsibility to contain all terrorists and terrorist’s activities.
No it wont
don't tell me it will be safer, SHOW ME. Hamas committed a military coup over PA/Fatah over Gaza in June 2007. Syria and Yemen still in perpetual war, and there is ethnic cleansing of non-Arabs going on right now in the Sudan back by Turkey, the UAE and Iran. "PEACE"? Yeah, sure. Taqiyya
😢😢😢
You think it's about their sovereignty? No, it's about existence of the state of Isreal.
Like Lebanon, like Syria, like Yemen? LOL
Israel has opened an inquiry into how they were definitely not to blame !!!
Germany is complicit in this genocide.

They cheer the settler violence in the streets! Do you condemn settler violence? Do you condemn settlers? We stand with Palestinians.
Methinks we should adapt some law regarding hailing Israel vis a vis Palestinians. Hm, Palestinians... Semites ... We should call it antisemitism law!

@@obiwanduglobi6359 The Palestinians denounce Hamas while the Israeli state backs and promotes settlers. Not an equal comparison.
@@SolomonSunder The Palestinian Authority (PA) has not explicitly condemned Hamas. PA President Mahmoud Abbas did distance himself from Hamas' actions after an attack on Israel in October 2023, stating that Hamas' policies do not represent the Palestinian people. However, this statement was later removed from official announcements without explanation. (ZDF Mediathek)
Additionally, the PA sometimes collaborates with Hamas. There have been meetings where representatives of the PA, Hamas, and other groups discussed a united front against Israel. This indicates that the relationship between the PA and Hamas is complex and contradictory, with the PA often taking a cautious stance and expressing diplomatic empathy for all sides, but not issuing clear condemnations.

Germany’s best friends
Enforce the law among your own people. Probably need some better laws as well.
Shame on Europeans and Americans who have not stopped this problem.
sanctions against some Peter or John, while ignoring the occupation doesn't work??
why would you even draft sanctions like that, to so obviously miss the point only makes you look like a coward as well as immoral.

Israeli law,international law is kind of an oxymoron when it comes to the state of iseral and the occupied West Bank
Thank you for reporting on this issue!
maybe west should try diplomacy instead of forcing everything which has been proven to go wrong over the past decades
“The biggest insult to the memory of the Holocaust is not denying it, but using it to commit genocide against the Palestinian people.” - Norman Finkelstein
The settlements have been the official Israeli policy for decades, including the Labour governments. And the settlers are part of the Israeli government now. These aren't fringe groups, this is Israel.
They can stay in a free Palestine but will have to pay Palestinian taxes. Yeah the IDF must leave, buh bye… god bless Ireland, Spain and Norway.
It's not a crime to condemn Israeli war crimes. Condemning Israeli war crimes is not antisemitic.
The people of god are still stealing land! 🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉
EU and US sanctions are nothing compared to the harm these settlers cause. Does the EU care about international law? I think not, these sanctions would have bigger teeth otherwise.
We must not be silent while witnessing injustice. More than 35,500 Palestinians have lost their lives, mostly women and children
Stealing land as usual
no steal, defensive action after Jordan declared war on Israel in 1967.
I feel so bad.
Its all just going to get worse and worse unfortunately
Mean self defense when attacked by Palestinians
Israel needs to leave, like the English from India.
No their country

The lawyer basically said nothing. Why talk of sanctions without elaborating what those sanctions are and how it's put in place?
From a Google search: *"Netanyahu Says Israel’s Goal Is to Wipe Out All Possibility of Palestinian State"*
Why the surprise? They have been doing this with the blessing of the USA for long time.
7 oktober, never forget
I'll never forget. But will you never forget the attrocities commited by settlers in the west bank?
@@obiwanduglobi6359That is a valid point. I'm very pro-Israel, but I agree with you.
One of the worst guests of DW during this conflict. First, it is almost impossible to understand what he says. Second, the things he said do actually make little sense… “word salad”. Technically he just says that Israel needs to do a better job of enforcing law in the west bank… well their whole apartheid strategy of suppressing Palestinians and ruling violently did not work well for so many years… maybe diplomacy and compromise (on both sides) is the only way to get to a peaceful 2 state solution… however difficult with the wrong leaders (again on both sides)
It should be that if a Israeli wants to enter a foreign country, they should have to prove that they are not from the West Bank via a form of identification that isn't from the Israeli government.
What DW doesn’t report is it’s in israil law that no case can be brought to any israil court that’s has taken place in the West Bank or Gaza Strip meaning israil them self have no mechanism to punish illegal violence that occur against the Palestinian even if they wanted to. This is one of the main evidence present to the ICJ to support the element for “systematic” prejudice against an ethnic group. This is a key factory to prosecute and qualify israil under the genocide conviction for intent on a systematic levels.
Not at all; sanctions merely give the appearance of ‘helping’
Not nearly enough, as with all things related to Israel, there is _no_ real accountability.
Please bring an expert who can speak clearly. Thank you.

"We have small children at home. They throw stones".
So they are throwing stones at other people with your knowledge and approval, and you are shocked when people come to "scare" them?
When your attacked it’s self defense
And where is Hamas
The word 'Canaan' was derived from the Hurrian language for 'purple' and, as the Greeks knew the Canaanites as 'Phoenicians' (Greek for `purple') and as the Phoenicians worked in purple dye and so were called by the Greeks' purple people,'' this explanation is the most probable.
At the beginning of the 12th century B.C., the Philistines were one of the Sea Peoples swept out of the Aegean to appear in the archaeological record and ancient literary references. The Philistines ultimately settled on and dominated some of the choicest land in Canaan.
The Greeks began using the term 'Palestine' to refer to the whole region between Egypt and Phoenicia. This term does come directly from 'Philistine.' The Greeks used this for the whole region because they were obviously more familiar with the coastal nation (the Philistines) than the inland one (the Israelites).
they are hamas!
said israel
Is this where the Palestinian "state" is located?
It's supposed to be located in the West Bank and Gaza Strip. If Israel doesn't want to be accused of violating international law, they should respect those borders.

It is a matter of great shame and humiliation that Massive Unemployment has forced people from Rank 111 Hunger Index India to work as menial Laborers in Israel.

How does someone with no content have 11 subscribers ????? Also an UNICEF report released on 6 June 2024, showed INDIA has successfully narrowed inequities in severe child food poverty between poorer and wealthier households by 5 percentage points. I will mention China has also improved but still has 10% percent of children with severe food poverty. Unfortunately I couldn't find the percentage figure for India, you can post it here. All parameters to measure hunger such childhood mortality stunting and wasting have improved positively over the years. All data to show this is available on U.N.s website. India has a lot to improve but a lot has improved. I for one think most countries have improved so no need to be negative.
