In the interview, settler leader Daniella Weiss was asked repeatedly whether she believes a Jewish life is worth the same as a Palestinian life. She refused to answer yes or no, instead saying that all human beings were created by God and that the question was like comparing men and women. When pressed, she would not state that the two lives are equal.

The Settler Project and Its Escalation

Weiss, often called the godmother of Israeli settlers, described her work as "returning from the diaspora" and "building the land that was wasteland." She said she was proud that more than a hundred new communities were established in Judea and Samaria (the West Bank) in the last two years. When confronted with UN data showing that 18 Palestinians have been killed this year in settler attacks, with 190 attacks per month in the first four months of the year, she dismissed the numbers as not representing "the positive zionistic success of redeeming the land."

Show Notes

As violence in the occupied West Bank continues to escalate, one of the most influential figures in Israel's settler movement joins the programme. The interview follows a diplomatic clash between Israel and Spain after Israeli officials criticised Madrid over a surge of migrants crossing from Morocco into the Spanish enclave of Ceuta. Israel's Ambassador to the UN, Danny Danon, accused Spain of hypocrisy, saying it should explain why it still maintains "colonial enclaves" in Africa before criticising Israel. The exchange reignited debate over competing claims of colonialism. Israel and the United States recognise Morocco's sovereignty over Western Sahara, a territory whose status remains disputed internationally, while Israel itself faces sustained international criticism over the expansion of Israeli settlements in the occupied West Bank. Against that backdrop, attention has increasingly focused on the settlement movement and its growing influence within Israeli politics. National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir has repeatedly voiced support for expanding settlements and has also called for Israelis to resettle Gaza.
