Even if one were to accept that everything Israel has done in Gaza has been justified as self-defence, what it continues to do in the West Bank more than qualifies it as a rogue state on any legal or moral basis - UNLESS you believe that the Palestinian people have literally no human rights.
Israel gave final approval to a settlement project in the heart of the occupied West Bank that supporters and critics alike say will deal a major blow to the contiguity of territory that Palestinians hope will be part of a future independent state.
Israel Approves Settlements, a Blow to Faded Hopes for a Palestinian State
The long-stalled project near Jerusalem, known as E1, further fragments West Bank lands envisioned as part of a Palestinian state, advancing a goal of Israeli hard-liners.
