Who are the settlers in Palestine? The poor and dispossessed from Israel and from around the world.
Is this really the case though? I know there are some Israeli Haredi groups (with members living below the poverty line) that sponsor settlers, but I've also known some perfectly comfortable Americans that move out near Bethlehem.
Some of the settlements have pretty comfortable conditions even by U.S. standards, and even as nearby Palestinian neighborhoods still have to ration daily water.
