Challenging the one-sided boycott of ‘West Bank’ exports

The article challenges the European boycott of exports from Judea and Samaria, arguing it is one-sided and based on mischaracterizations. It asserts that the proper term for the region is "Judea and Samaria," not "West Bank," and that Jewish residents are not "settlers" but have historical claims to the land dating back 3,500 years. The author contends that violence in the region is primarily initiated by Palestinians, with Jewish actions often being retaliatory. Political scientist Bob Goldberg is quoted, stating, "Palestinian violence, in other words, drives the cycle; Israeli violence responds to it." The article questions why only Jewish-produced goods are targeted for boycott, suggesting it reflects "Israel Derangement Syndrome" and a biased political agenda rather than objective facts or a balanced approach to conflict resolution.
