Israeli Jewish terrorists, mainly from the nearby unauthorized outpost of Meitarim Farm, strengthened by their complete impunity from the Israeli authorities, have brought us to where we are now – 250 residents of Khirbet Zanuta are forced to leave their lands.

After having called for an end to settler violence in the West Bank, what more needs to happen before President @JoeBiden puts his money where his mouth is? @USPalAffairs

Yesterday I went to Zanuta, on the west bank, where the citizens of the village are escaping their homes. After repeating attacks and death threats from Jewish settlers they decided they must leave. This is what ethnic cleansing looks like, settlers use the war to further their… pic.twitter.com/kbqnZ0UZEX

You see, bigot, the Jews are allowed to do this because of the Holocaust.
The Holocaust is a golden ticket, that allows Jews to do anything to anyone, forever.
Life in Zanuta, a Palestinian village atop a windy ridge in the desolate south Hebron hills, deep in the occupied West Bank, has never been easy. The community are mostly herders who raise goats and sheep through the barren landscape’s scorching summers and freezing winters, and who have steadfastly refused to leave their homes despite the mounting difficulties posed by the Israel Defence Forces (IDF) soldiers on one hand and radical Israeli settlers on the other.
But after weeks of intense settler violence in the aftermath of the Hamas attack on Israel on 7 October, Zanuta’s 150 residents have made a collective decision to leave. Armed settlers – some in reservist army uniforms, some covering their faces – have begun breaking into their homes at night, beating up adults, destroying and stealing belongings, and terrifying the children.
After decades of a desperate fight to cling on to their land, the community has decided they have lost.
On Monday, men and women cried as they dismantled their homes and haphazardly packed solar panels, animal feed and personal belongings on to pickup trucks. The noise of the demolition drowned out the bleating from the animal pens and threw up dust and debris that tore at the eyes and throat.
“It is a new Nakba,” said Issa Ahmad Baghdad, 71, referring to the expulsion of 700,000 Palestinians in 1948 after the creation of Israel. “My family are going to Rafat. But we don’t know anyone there. We don’t know what to tell the children.”

“We have had hard times in the village since the settlers started the Mitarim farm across the valley three years ago. It has been harder to take the sheep out, and the settler young men destroy things like crops, or steal sheep, or call the army to come and harass us. But now they are coming into our homes. My daughters are terrified,” said Amin Hamed al-Hudarat, 41, as he began to cry.
“I had thought we might need to leave before, but we did not expect it to happen like this. I can’t believe that by tomorrow I am going to leave my home. We are going to camp on the outskirts of Deira, but I don’t know what will happen next, what I will do for work, what we will do with the sheep. My whole life is in Zanuta.
“The community is breaking up. I don’t know when I will see my neighbours to chat and tell stories and drink coffee again.”
Now that entire villages such as Zanuta have decided to leave, it is feared there will be a domino effect in the area, said Nasser Nawadja, a field researcher from the village of Susiya for the Israeli human rights group B’Tselem. He has been beaten and arrested many times during his work.
“Settler violence is now worse than ever. Sometimes, they are wearing reservist uniforms, and we don’t know who is the army and who is a settler any more,” he said.
“The people in Tuba were given a 24-hour ultimatum to leave, or the settlers said they would come back and kill them. That was on Saturday. We don’t know what will happen next.”
The Guardian is anti-Semitic.
No one has a right to discuss Jew behavior, because of the Holocaust.
Six million people were turned into lampshades. That means they can kill as many infants as they want until the sun burns out and we all freeze to death.
Even as the sun begins to burn out, and we start to freeze, the Jews will be permitted to run around in hefty down jackets murdering infants and toddlers as it meets their fancy.
