Bennett is an extreme right-wing supporter of the occupation and illegal settlements, and has spoken proudly of <a href=\"https:\/\/palestinemonitor.org\/index.php\/2021\/05\/31\/who-is-the-man-likely-to-be-the-next-israeli-prime-minister\/\">killing Palestinians<\/a> in the past.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Under the \u201ccompromise deal\u201d, the settlers will leave the outpost, which will then be taken over by the Israeli Occupation Forces. The ultimate intention is to build a permanent settlement on the site, effectively completing the original objective of the illegal settlers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All Israeli settlements are illegal under international law, and are unanimously condemned by the international community. The Israeli government routinely supports these illegal settlements with infrastructure and tax incentives.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dozens of Palestinians have been killed in the West Bank in the last number of months, as they protest against illegal land confiscations and continued discrimination at the hands of Israeli Occupation Forces.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At least four Palestinians have been killed and dozens have been wounded by Israeli Occupation Forces in an area surrounding a new illegal Israeli \u201coutpost\u201d.
