And again I find myself wondering by what purported authority it is that Israel "approves" the construction of settlements on someone else's land.
That'd be like reading that the Mexican government had "approved" the construction of Mexican settlements in Texas.
Fuck, I welcome them with open arms. Every immigrant, migrant, or "illegal" resident I've met has been magnitudes better than most every selfish conservative person continuing to ruin my ability to enjoy Texas. My family has been here for 3 generations and we do not recognize this state anymore.
The difference is that Mexican immigrants in the US aren’t trying to genocide existing residents and steal the entirety of their land. They just want to have a good life and coexist. That isn’t enough for Zionists though.

No, but that does describe how Americans treated Native Americans - they genocided them and stole their land.
It's no surprise then that the United States supports Israel doing the same in Palestine. The West has a long history of unrepentant colonialism - Israel is just a continuation of that legacy
the construction of settlements on someone else's land.
That's what the entirety of the State of Israel is: settlements on someone else's land.
It's also what the countries comprising the "New World" are as well, of course - from the Americas to Oceania. But it also describes Israel, and their colonization is ongoing today.
Israel has built about 160 settlements housing some 700,000 Jews since it occupied the West Bank and East Jerusalem - land the Palestinians want as part of a future state - in the 1967 Middle East war.
Implying they didn't already own the land before Zionists stole it from them. Fuck you, BBC.
The UN says at least 413 Palestinians - members of armed groups, attackers and civilians - have been killed in conflict-related incidents in the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, or in Israel since October.
Fifteen Israelis, including four security forces personnel, have also been killed.
At least 413 Palestinians killed in the same way that I had at least one spoonful of ice cream last night
Jesus dude how many tubs of ice cream did you eat last night?
And in the process they will build even more checkpoints and restrict even further the free movement of Palestinians.
Sometimes I really wonder if Israel isn't running some cruel experiment on Palestinians how much abuse they can tolerate.
Not to mention how cynical all this is especially now. Great peacekeeping job!
What else to expect from a Colonialist Settler Nation ? A colonialist power that has been given nuclear weapons by another colonialist power, to make sure that the colonialist project never dies, yet that have no shame in declaring themselves the inventors of the human rights principals and "Universalism".
Are you talking about Israel or the United States?
Not to disagree with your point, Zionism should be opposed. But we shouldn't pretend the United States is any better
The United States could be better though. And we could start by opposing colonial states such as Israel
I was Talking about France, it's France that did give the nuclear technology to Israel to develop their own bombs.
