Once again, we are witnessing videos that serve the “settler violence” campaign—a campaign that raises its head whenever the left identifies an opportunity for diplomatic pressure that could lead to further Israeli withdrawals.

The purpose of the blood-libel campaign against the Jews living in Judea and Samaria (labeled in English “settlers” but really should be called “inheritors of the land”) is to serve as a tool in the hands of those demanding their uprooting and expulsion from Judea and Samaria and the establishment of an Arab terror state in the heart of our land. It is entirely possible that the current timing of the renewed push of the false and libelous  “settler violence” campaign was chosen due to the Prime Minister’s visit to the White House and the left’s hopes for American pressure to force Israel’s willingness to establish a Palestinian state.

In the face of this campaign of lies and defamation, we must stand firm with a decisive response whose headline is clear: there is no settler violence! To clarify this, we will begin with the obvious—unlike what occurs among the Arab enemy, where education toward hatred of Jews and the aspiration to kill Jews begins even before kindergarten and only intensifies over time, among Jews there are no people who wake up in the morning burning with a desire to attack Arabs for no reason. Jewish lives revolve around a normative daily routine of work, study, and family life.
