These days, Atheist Zionist that I am, I prefer to call the “West Bank” by its historical, aka its Biblical, name, Judea and Samaria.
Where, we see the Israel Guys, on the ground, describe the real and present danger of terrorism from some 2 million Arabs living there.
To the international Left, these are not terrorists, but “freedom fighters”. They can only be so of you believe Israel has no right to exist on its own, never-abandoned, indigenous land.
But I do accept Israel’s historical, legal and occupational right to exist. So, to me, as to the Israel Guys, they remain terrorists. Whose simple aim is explicitly genocidal: to kill the Jews, to drive them out of the Middle East and to make it “Judenrein”, Jew-free.
Note the high level of support for Hamas in Judea and Samaria: up to 80%, according to polls in 2025.
