So "active in the movement to settle" is different from "settling" for you?

I think the problem is that your personal interpretation of ´settlement´ is more positive than what it means in reality

    Again... they wrote "active in the movement to rebuild settlements in Gaza" that, to me at least, would suggests that they are peacefully rebuilding something that was already theirs.

    Again, if you interpret Israelis settling in Gaza as ´peacefully´ taking something ´already theirs´ then that´s more of a you problem than a BBC problem

    I think you are confused.

    if you interpret Israelis settling in Gaza as ´peacefully´ taking something

    I am clearly doing the opposite of that, so what are you talking about? Consider actually reading my comments instead of just skimming over them and completely misconstruing what i am saying. I have no idea how you managed to twist this in your head into thinking that i see the Israelis behavior as peaceful. I am calling the BBC out for framing the Israelis as peaceful instead of calling them out on their warcrimes.

    You can only interpret the wording the BBC is using in the way you propose if you believe settling in Gaza is a peaceful affair

    No-one is reading that BBC article thinking the Gazans are peacefully evacuating their homes so their jewish friends can rebuild their settlement

    You don't seem to actually be reading what they said, they repeatedly made it clear that their issue was with the term "rebuild", which you keep carefully omitting.

    Do you think readers will completely ignore what they want to rebuild?

    That's the point; they're not 'rebuilding' anything. They're building new illegal settlements in occupied land, and it's wildly dishonest of the BBC to try and imply otherwise.

    They had settlements there before, and now they want to build them back. It´s really weird to franctically want to avoid the word ´rebuild´ in this case
