Ezri Tubi nails it on the head with excellent drone footage and logic. A group of young Jewish settlers battling an Arab town over a small, yet strategic mountain top is indeed a land battle with deep ideological basis. But the word siege is a big fat lie. It is not an exaggeration. The use of the words ” settlers attacking Arab children” is an extension of the blood libel chorus which “spontaneously” erupted after October 7th before the very first IDF soldier counterattacked in Gaza.
The lies against Jewish settlers abound for the reason that open and unabashed antisemitism is back in style – especially in the Democrat Party. But it is also taking root in the Republican Party due to the popularity of Arab-funded Tucker Carlson and other obsessively anti-Israel “right-wing” commentators.
The same people who attack Jews incessantly ignore the constant Arab poisoning of sheep that the Jewish settlers use to resettle the disputed Land. There indeed is alot of Arab activity to expand and a fight that the young Jewish sheperds are giving back to them to defend the disputed Land. But notice how the question of who’s land it really belongs to is often sidestepped. It is more eye-catching to label Jewish settlers as “violent” and to portray them as perforning a “siege” on a quiet Arab town than it is to accuratedly portray the complexity of the situation.
Ezri’s description gives a better bird’s eye-view and does not attempt to whitewash the essential truth. This is an ideological battle wherein the Arab towns in Judea and Samaria are filled with Hamas terror-filled attitudes. The overwhelming hopes and aspirations of young Arabs in these towns is to kill and terrorize Jews. Sounds alarming – but it is the truth. The young Arabs were educated that way in their schools and homes. Anyone wanting things to be different may have good intentions, but the facts are facts. Israel’s next battles will almost certainly be from within Judea and Samaria repelling further attempts to massacre Jews.
The attacks on the young Jewish sheperds are intended as the opening salvos to weaken the most potent Jewish weapon against any Arab expansionism towards Jewish towns in Judea and Samaria. These young Jewish sheperds certainly are not of the “turn the other cheek” type personalities. They are willing to be beaten up if that’s what it takes. But they will come back the next day with more sheep and fight for the Land that they rightfully see as belonging to the Jewish people. This drives the Arabs crazy. Furthermore, the Jewish sheperds are winning.
