Hafat Jle'ad's Shift from Settlement to Outpost
The article discusses the establishment of the "Hafat Gilad" settler outpost in the West Bank, founded in 2002 as a retaliatory measure following the killing of settler Moshe Zar's son. The outpost is considered one of the most prominent examples of Israel's use of settler outposts as a tool to Judaize Palestinian land, evolving from makeshift sites into military strongholds supporting extremist groups. Instances of violence and assaults by settlers have occurred, accompanied by military support from the occupation and legal cover, despite orders to demolish the structures. The outpost spans approximately 450 dunams and is currently used as a launching point for violent attacks against Palestinians, with a high rate of impunity—more than 93% of investigation files into settler attacks are closed without charges—reflecting a deliberate policy to displace populations and impose territorial and demographic control.
