Pretty easily actually. You can either be bombed by Israel whenever a war breaks out or be in Israel when Israel decides to massacre thousands of innocent people. I'd rather be in Israel too.

There is nothing to be unsure about settlements. They are illegal. Plain and simple. Israel continues to break international laws. If this was Palestinians building settlements on Israeli land I think we know how sure you'd be.
Arab Israelis build homes within Israel all of the time. In 1949 Jordan expelled every Jew from the West Bank, including the old Jewish quarter of East Jerusalem.

I don't see why Israel has to accept millions of Arabs within their borders, but Israeli settlers living in the West Bank is unacceptable. Particularly when the majority are moving into the area around East Jerusalem.

It was illegal for Jordan to have removed the Jews from the West Bank in the first place. The thing about this conflict you are going to find is that if you look for it Israel and the Arabs are both doing "illegal" things. It's a war and conflict over land. Holding one side to a standard of perfection and letting the other get away with murder is ridiculous.

People also act like Israelis moving into disputed land is some anomaly and modern colonization. It's not. Many similar disputes over land between ethnic/religious/national groups are happening all over the world.
