Does Israel really have a monopoly on power? Don't they have huge numbers of settler militia types out there attacking Palestinians and driving them from their lands?
It is the US that has the military power. Israel has already tried going into Lebanon before and failed, so I think if they do it they must be pretty confident that America will come to their aid.
They really really want to draw the US and Iran into it.
As I understand it, some of the settlers have a little military training, but mostly they are as you would expect, very uneducated poor people from very remote places who don't know anything else, and that's on both sides of the borders. Too bad Israel has a far-right government in charge that won't do anything to stop these illegal settlements. I hope they get thrown out in the next election.
you forgot the part where they have IDF assistance and protection when they kill Palestinians...
?

There is zero hope the far right leadership gets voted out in any of the territory at issue except Israel, so that's worth nurturing, not smothering in its crib.
Under Trump the US for the first time ever declared many of the settlements LEGAL. Just another of the ways Trump contradicted long-standing foreign policy.
US supports Israel to a ridiculous deglee, rest of the world say they're a war crime. Only two countries in the UN voted to make food not a human right, guess which.
I don't find it ridiculous at all to prevent a fledgling democracy, the only one for a thousand miles in any direction, and our ally, from being overrun by radical pan-Islamism, which is antithetical to human and civil rights, and an ideology that needs to be left in the trash heap of history. Literally has no place in modern society. In fact, I find the future of the world's democracies to be closely tied to the good fortune of all mankind
Check the signatories to South Africa's complaint to the UN. With the exception of South Africa and Ireland, every one of them is a far right theocracy with either a dictator or monarchy in charge, zero recognition for basic human rights. Check the complaint: filled of circular reasoning and citations to unsourced Al Jazeera articles. See if they can prove up their claims when the evidentiary trial take place. Got a whole long list of unverified allegations from Qatari state run media and practically nothing else.
