At the beginning of my last blog I should have given some background into the difference between Israelis living in Israel proper and Israel settlers. I am considering Israelis individuals who live in the state of Israel as defined by the 1949 Armistice Line which separates Israel and Palestine. The separation border is called the green line. In the map on this page Palestine is represented in green and Israel in white. Israeli settlers are individuals who live in colonies on the land designated as Palestine by the UN in 1949. The settler movement occurred primarily after the Six Day War in 1967 between Israeli and the Arab nations.
