RE: What percentage of Israeli settlers are terrorists?
※→ abi, et al,
I do not believe that Israel has anything like "Extrajudicial Action" and that of "Military Extrajudicial Jurisdiction Act" (legal proceedings and law enforcement action taken outside the jurisdiction or judicial system) like that of the US (example: Osama bin Laden). Many people use that terminology without an understanding of what extrajudicial Action and extraterritorial authority means. But, as our friend "abi" uses it, it is not something bad or despicable. It has clear practical uses. It is covered by law. While the FBI does not conduct foreign intelligence gathering or counterintelligence investigations, it has many other international interests. The US has agents and support professionals in many overseas offices, pursuing terrorist, intelligence, and criminal threats with international dimensions in every part of the world. The US also takes part in all manner of global and regional crime-fighting initiatives, including Interpol and Europol, and Resolution 6 Co-locates operations to combat drug activity. It’s no exaggeration to say that the various US agencies have established 21st Century Operations in the protection of citizens and interest of the United States.
What about the extrajudicial killings of Palestinians?
(COMMENT)
I know of no Israeli program for the express purpose of "extrajudicial killings of Palestinians." Are Palestinian killed (RHETORICAL)? Yes, of course. Palestinians have been killed in the venue of both International Armed Conflicts (IAC) and Non-International Armed Conflicts (NIAC); as well as in major foreign intelligence and counterintelligence operation. Are Palestinians killed in the conduct of Article 43 HR essential missions (RHETORICAL)? Hell yes. I supports over the last half century, many Hostile Arab Palestinians have been fatally injured/killed as a result of confrontations tat were intentionally incited, induced and organized for political, anti-Israeli and Jihadist reasons; to include staged media events.
Now, are there times when Israelis have done wrongs? Yes. In a have century, and the tens-of-thousands of Police, Security Services, and military personnel that served and will serve --- operating in an environment that deliberately aggravated by Hostile Arab Palestinian Leader --- to maintain a belligerent and hostile climate and glorifies such action as heroic in the societal view and in a religious context, how could it not be true. The Israelis have, while a much lower level of criminally inclined individuals and many fewer mentally unbalanced psychopaths (than that of the Arab Palestinians), there will be examples of improper action and Major Crimes (including homicides). It is simply unavoidable.
But by far, the number of sociopaths in the overall Arab Palestinian population able to sustain the provide direct support for Jihadism, Belligerent Fedayeen Action, Hostile Insurgency Operations, Radicalized Islamic Behaviors, and Asymmetric Violence is incredible. Yes, the world thumps on Israel fr its crimes directed at the Arab Palestinians, the fact is ⇒ Israel does not hijack commercial planes, Israel does not takeover cruise ships, Israel does not infiltrate the Palestinian and just begin killing people until they themselves are killed. Israel does nt line-up Arab Palestinian men, women and children and gun them down for the sheer pleasure of it. Israel does not engage the suicide bombings of buses restaurants and reception events just to induce fear in the general population. The Arab Palestinians, or for that matter, any organization or state, has a lot of guile to suggest that Israel is guilty of any criminal on the order of the Arab Palestinians.
I did a search on the GTD for terrorist attacks the twelve-year period 2005-2016 (≈ 4380). I eliminated all but the events confirmed as a terrorist attack from Palestinian Groups (not all but as listed). Now it may not sound like much, but when you consider that Israel is about the size of New Jersey (8,019 sq miles), one confirmed terrorist attack (in that small of an area) every 27 days (round of to once a month), it has quite an impact. If any single state of the US was getting a terrorist attack from any surrounding neighbor, we would wack them into near mass extinction. We would total take control of that neighbor.
If that big-mouth country of Sweden (Conference of European Rabbis requests urgent meeting with Swedish Prime Minister over govt. failure to act against anti-Semitism) were to experience one attack every month, and they knew the source, what would they do?
Most Respectfully,

What about all of the terrorist attacks on Palestinians by Israel?Now it may not sound like much, but when you consider that Israel is about the size of New Jersey (8,019 sq miles), one confirmed terrorist attack (in that small of an area) every 27 days (round of to once a month), it has quite an impact.

When the Arab leaders sign a Peace Treaty with Israel, and when IDF or civilians continue to attack Arabs for no reason OTHER THAN to defend themselves, THEN you can call what Jews and Israel have been doing since 1920 as terrorism and not an act of DEFENSE against Arab/Muslim aggression against Jews or Israel.
