It is important to note that this is not an isolated incident, and this story has only reached the news because the victims are European dignitaries. Those pogroms (there's no better word to describe those incidents) are happening on a daily basis, and the scale (multiple attacks per day) makes it apparent that this not just random violence, but a coordinated campaign to ethnically cleanse the rural Palestinian population of the West bank.
Edit: language.
Even the word Settlers is diabolically manipulative. Like in you are going to settle on what there is already an implication ...of something that is yours to settle to...
"Israeli murderers are called commandos. Arab commandos are called terrorists."
It's election campaigning, nothing more, nothing less. Can't wait for that to finally be over, maybe then some sense will come back to Israeli politics.
It's not, this happens constantly in the West Bank. It's also weird that attacking civilians would be considered election campaigning?
There never was sense to begin with
