Only in Israel you can murder someone on camera and go home. In any other country these so called "settlers" would be rightfully labelled "terrorists".

Reading the actual history of European settler colonialism (which Israel is) will make you realize that settlers are far worse than even terrorists.

A simple test of the Israeli justice system is to compare this case to any case of a Palestinian murdering a Jewish Israeli citizen.

A common response is for the IDF to summarily murder the Palestinian and destroy his home and potentially murdering any occupants of the building.

I hate to do this, but cops usually shoot people on camera and get off scott-free. Mostly in America, but happens all over the world.

@Farid
What?

How many white Americans are shown the same courtesy having killed black or brown people?

How many white Australians are allowed to walk free in the same way?

How many Brazilian ranchers have ever been punished for slaughtering indigenous people? Or Argentine, Bolivian and so on.

This is the same power at play, the same social advantage given to settlers and colonists since time immemorial. Calling this something exclusively Israeli is wrong.
