National Unity chairman and war cabinet minister Benny Gantz says during a Zoom meeting yesterday with executives of legacy American Jewish organizations, I believe I've succeeded in convincing my American colleagues and international colleagues not to use the phrase settler violence anymore.

"I don't want to sweep under the rug the fact that a small, extremist group who [is taking] actions against Palestinians. We are operating against it, we are using police forces and [the Shin Bet] against it," Gantz adds.

While Gantz says he has succeeded in the effort, it is unclear which colleagues he is referring to as the State Department continues to use the term and the European Union has begun describing the phenomenon as "settler terrorism."

The Yesh Din rights group said last week that there had been over 172 incidents of settler violence and harassment against Palestinians in at least 84 Palestinian towns and communities in the West Bank since Hamas's terror onslaught.

These actions have resulted in the displacement of nearly 600 Palestinians from 13 communities who were forced to abandon their homes due to fear of settler attacks, the B'Tselem rights group says.

I am not sure what we are meant to call "settler violence" when it is exactly that, why Gantz is pretending he doesn't want to sweep the issue under the carpet while seeking to do exactly that.

Whatever Gantz wants, I am going to continue describing settler violence as "settler violence" because that is what it is.
