The cycle goes something like this: American or international pressure mounts on Israel to stop settlement activities in the occupied territories. Israeli settlers and their supporters then gather even more energy to expand onto more Palestinian land, build more exclusively Jewish settlements, and destroy more Arab homes before the so-called “freeze” comes into effect.
“怪圈”一般都是这样的：美国或者国际社会向以色列施压，要求其终止在占领区内的定居活动。而犹太定居者和众多支持者们则集结更大的力量来“开拓“巴勒斯坦的土地，建造更多的犹太人专属定居点，并破坏更多阿拉伯人的家园——抢在所谓“冻结”政策生效之前。
