U.S. Ambassador to Israel slams West Bank settler violence as “acts of terror,” using the term “terrorists” for the first time in public to describe them — a stark escalation following a visit to Palestinian American residents targeted by attacks. His remarks echo a pattern since October’s Gaza conflict, as settler violence spikes and tensions mount. In Turmus Ayya, a village hit repeatedly, the ambassador voiced solidarity with American residents whose lives are disrupted by “unfair and illegal” settler actions. Shortly after, settlers allegedly burned a mosque and left graffiti referencing him — an incident he called “likely unintended” but emblematic of a “tiny minority.” Israeli officials also condemned the violence as a “disgrace.” While the U.S. Embassy can’t investigate, it’s urging Israel to act and enforce justice — as international bodies continue to label settlements illegal and criticize the military’s lack of intervention.
