Remind me again why anyone cares about a few crazy orthodox jews building houses in the middle of a desert that no one actually gave a rat's ass about before the crazy jews started buidling houses there.
I find it interesting that two Arab cities have been under attack by the legal governments of the country in which the cities are located. Civilians are being killed in both cities. In one, the US is actually participating in the fighting and is probably responsible for civilian deaths. Yet, all we hear about is Aleppo and nothing about Mosul. Moreover, I wonder how many of those concerned about Aleppo have ever previously shown any concern about Arabs? It seems that Aleppo's main purpose is to be a useful deflection for those who ordinarily don't mind Arabs being killed.
As for your second point, you seem to have no understanding of the occupied territories. If crazy Jews want to build houses in the desert, they have the entire Negev to keep them busy. I'm sorry that your education included nothing about the long history of people caring about such places as Jerusalem, Jericho, or Hebron. The idea that nobody cared about such places until Israel started building settlements is truly astonishing.
Obviously the Jews building settlements there have always cared about those places. The people who want to wipe Israel off the face of the map didn't. Until now. Because pretending to care is a pretext for wiping Israel off the face of the map.

Looks like George Mitchell disagrees.
If you disagree with the settlement policy but support Israel as they continue to expand their settlements you are supporter the settlements. There is no grey area.
That is a bit extreme. Many of us opposed the US invasion of Iraq while still supporting the US. One can support Israel while opposing any number of its policies. There is really no contradiction.
no because the opposition to the US invasion if iraq was not something central to the existence or nature of the US.
The settlements are tied much closer to the notion of zionism.
Opposition to settlements is central to the existence of the US or the nature of the US? Say what, bro?
