A tale as old as colonialism: Unscrupulous human beings profit off of ethnic-cleansing and genocide.
'Illegal settlements' doesn't quite convey the extreme violence and injustice of what Israel is and has been doing in the West Bank.

As Israel deploys tanks in the West Bank for the first time in 20 years, two of the world’s biggest travel companies are helping Israeli land thieves commercialise stolen land.
Report: "A tour overlooking Gaza": Israeli politicians & settlers visited a lookout over northern Gaza "to discuss future illegal settlements", despite such settlements violating international law.
Roughly 700,000 Israeli settlers live in ~250 illegal settlements & outposts on Palestinian land.

Israelis Are Selling Stolen Palestinian Land To Americans

“Everything you love about America, right here in Israel.”
While Israel decimates Palestinians in Gaza, real estate firms are touring the U.S. looking for buyers to purchase property in Israel and in illegal West Bank settlements.
Powerful, wealthy American zionists supporting apartheid and genocide are a big part of the problem.
Activists ask for help combatting violence against #Nicaragua’s #Indigenous communities

"Increasing violence in northern Nicaragua this year has displaced rural families and led to calls for more drastic action from the international community, which activists say hasn’t done enough to hold the #Ortega government accountable for human rights abuses.
"For years, Indigenous communities on Nicaragua’s northern #Caribbean coast have suffered threats, kidnappings, torture and unlawful arrests while defending communal territory from #IllegalSettlements and #mining. This year appears to be as bad as ever, and residents say they are desperate for help.
"'Urgent measures must be taken to protect these communities,' said Gloria Monique de Mees, the OAS rapporteur on the rights of Afro-descendants and against racial discrimination. 'Failure to address the crisis will only embolden the Nicaraguan government to continue its repressive campaign.'
"Much of the violence is concentrated within the North Caribbean Coast Autonomous Region (#RACCN), a jurisdiction communally governed and titled by Indigenous communities since the late 1980s. It’s home to #Miskitus, #Mayangnas, #Ulwa, #Ramas, #Creole and #Garífunas peoples, and contains mountain, #rainforest and coastal #ecosystems.
"The area has attracted non-Indigenous Nicaraguans, known locally as #colonos, looking to set up #farms, #logging operations and artisanal #mines. Massive #gold and #copper deposits have also created opportunities for multinational mining #corporations, with backing from the government.
"Indigenous communities say they’re worried about losing #AncestralLand as well as traditional farming, hunting and fishing practices as the forest is cleared and mines #pollute local streams and rivers."
"They (Israeli settlers) are protected by the IDF, and since they have weapons and are armed, they are not listening to the law."
Israeli settlers are establishing a new, illegal outpost in a Unesco-protected area of Palestine.
"Suddenly the settlers came, wanting to devour the land and take it away from us."
