> the one place in the region where these rights actually matter and mean something

What was the article about, again? Was it about respecting the rights of women?

We must make a distinction between the actions of the government (and the military) and the actions of some lunatic individuals, though.

I don’t think we do in this case. This is the very first line of the article:

> Israeli soldiers and settlers are using gendered violence and sexual assault and harassment to force Palestinians from their homes in the occupied West Bank, human rights and legal experts say.

So here we’re talking about both the military and some lunatic individuals.
