West Bank Palestinians to Get Electronic Tags, Settler Violence Continues
Israel will reportedly introduce electronic tracking for Palestinians in the West Bank, a move framed as enhancing ‘security cooperation’. This comes as settler violence, not Palestinian aggression, has sky-rocketed (as reported by The New Arab). One might wonder if these tags are meant to track perpetrators or simply further contain a population already living under occupation. This 'security'
logic echoes decades of policies, from walls to checkpoints, that primarily surveil Palestinians while ignoring the documented daily reality of settler aggression. Meanwhile, the US continues to funnel billions in unconditional aid, seemingly indifferent to how these tools facilitate an apartheid system. Perhaps a clearer picture emerges when considering which 'security' aid House Armed Services
Committee members like Rep. Joe Wilson, who received $10,000 from AIPAC in 2022-2023, rubber-stamp without question.
