Israeli settlers in the occupied West Bank have beaten to death a United States citizen in his early 20s, the victim’s family members and rights groups have said.

“We are aware of reports of the death of a US citizen in the West Bank,” Reuters reported a State Department spokesperson as saying. The official declined to comment further “out of respect for the privacy of the family and loved ones” of the reported victim.

    You comment strongly implied that you thought Maple Engineer thought this was a MAGA-specific phenomenon. There isn’t the same strong implication in Maple Engineer’s comment.

        Can I point to where I said you said that explicitly? I can point to where I said you said it implicitly though. (emphasis mine)

        You comment strongly implied that you thought Maple Engineer thought this was a MAGA-specific phenomenon.

        You also more or less said it explicitly though, if you want to go down that route. I can’t quote a specific part of your comment because your entire comment is based on this suggestion. (emphasis mine again)

        You say that like MAGA are the only ones that don’t care about Israel killing Americans. Were you even aware that it happened under Biden?
