Honestly tell me what did you expect ? anybody would react in same way, according to that map you're pretty much trying to dissolve their last piece of land and claim it as yours, anybody would react violently to this doesn't matter if its legal or illegal, I would react in same way, anybody would.
These settlements were built in 1970-1980-es. When all the entire West Bank and Gaza were under the Israeli control.
In 1994 Israel provided Palestinians a wide autonomy (green area), which led to wave of suicide attacks form there with hundreds of Israeli casualties.
In 2000 Israel offered Palestinians a state, they rejected and started the second intifada, which led to over 1200 Israeli casualties.
In 2002 Israel launched operation Defensive Shield in West Bank, which eventually defeated suicide terrorism.
In 2005 Israel removed all the settlements and soldiers from Gaza. That led to drastic escalation of rocket fire from there with some 8000 rockets.
Israel had plans to remove most of the settlements in West Bank in 2006, but these plans foiled because of the increased rocket attacks.
There is not a single rocket coming from West Bank with settlements.
Why is Israel pushing for more Israeli settlements in west bank?
I just wanna hear your side of the story.
My position is that Israel should remove settlements which are deep inside the West Bank, but maintain soldiers there.
Settlers exploit the fact that there are no rockets from West Bank to expand settlements. Most of the Israelis dont realize that its army in West Bank which prevents the rockets, not the settlements.
