It never was about settlements or settlers, of course.

In a nutshell, it was because Jews did in 50 years what the Arab world could not do in 2000 years- they created a modern, functioning society in the region- and a free one at that.

For some shame societies, the only way to get rid of the shame is to eliminate the source of shame.

And because murdering Jews has been a hobby in the region for a long, long time.
