No doubt. They're creating settlements and expanding them, destroying the homes of many Palestinians, etc. yet they whine when some Palestinian goes berzerk and blows himself up. I saw a documentary and some settlers where actually complaining because there Palestinian neighbours stopped inviting them to a cup of tea anymore.

On the other hand, many settlers aren't to blame, they're poor and since the Israeli government gives them a home and a lot of social advantages to go live in a settlement, how exactly are they supposed to resist such an offer?
