Israel real West Bank problem : Not settler violence , but settlement enterprise

An increasing number of Israelis are reportedly disturbed by "settler violence," yet the article argues the fundamental issue is the structural violence of the settlement enterprise itself, which lacks significant opposition. The re-establishment of the Sa-Nur settlement in the West Bank illustrates this, with daily military raids and interrogations in the nearby Palestinian town of Jaba preceding settler arrival.

Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas announced legislative elections for November 28, the first since Hamas won in 2006, amid skepticism about the timing and motives. Critics suggest the move is an attempt to manage Fatah rivals and improve international standing rather than a genuine step toward democracy, especially with Hamas likely excluded from candidacy.

The article stresses that Hamas has historically used negotiations to gain time and preserve its military power, warning against mistaking frameworks for implementation and emphasizing that reconstruction should only begin in demilitarized zones.
