4. Does anyone here have statistics on the kinds of subsidies those who move to the occupied WB
receive to cover housing etc? I'm not talking about violent settlers, but any settlers who are lured to the WB with promises of cheap housing...?

Settlers were mentioned in the same breath with "jihadniks" and "hamasniks." I'm simply pointing out that of these 3, one receives a wink and a nod from the US, and indirect support (if not direct) from US taxpayers.

As a US taxpayer, it makes me sick that money I work hard to earn is used -- directly or indirectly -- to pay for Israel's suppression of the people of Palestine.

Is that sentiment illegal here?
