    Wonder if this was in part caused by the recent documentary The Settlers where Louis Theroux was able to talk to her a bunch and follow her around on her genocide celebration parties.

    They mentioned it in the article too:

    Weiss was recently featured in Louis Theroux’s documentary “The Settlers” - and has been active in the movement to rebuild settlements in Gaza.

    Note the use of “rebuild” … BBC always framing it as if it was Israels land to begin with.

      Which wording would you propose they use?

        Well first of all they are not “settlements” they are military outposts because the people living there are usually ex soldiers that are armed. But even ignoring that, the neutral wording for the BBC would be “active in the movement to settle Gaza” and if they want to be a little more honest then they could write “active in the movement of vigilante annexation of Gaza” because that is what the Israeli “civilians” are doing there actually.
