Just so we´re clear: your entire argument hinges on the idea that Israelis didn´t have settlements in Gaza before?

They had settlements there before, and now they want to build them back. It´s really weird to franctically want to avoid the word ´rebuild´ in this case

Do you think readers will completely ignore what they want to rebuild?

You can only interpret the wording the BBC is using in the way you propose if you believe settling in Gaza is a peaceful affair

No-one is reading that BBC article thinking the Gazans are peacefully evacuating their homes so their jewish friends can rebuild their settlement

Again, if you interpret Israelis settling in Gaza as ´peacefully´ taking something ´already theirs´ then that´s more of a you problem than a BBC problem

So “active in the movement to settle” is different from “settling” for you?

I think the problem is that your personal interpretation of ´settlement´ is more positive than what it means in reality

Note the use of “rebuild” … BBC always framing it as if it was Israels land to begin with.

Which wording would you propose they use?

What media are you reading where Israel is halting their attacks

They were quick to add barricades the previous time they expected a mass stampede… But it´s hard to imagine them being able to hold back a million determined refugees without it looking bad on tv.

I still fear that that´s what it´ll come down to though. A lot of people are never going to forgive them if they let them out

They’re going after Hamas fighters and hostages
