## Resource

Congressman Ro Khanna’s delegation faced a tense standoff near Khirbet Zanuta in the West Bank, blocked for over an hour by armed Israeli settlers wielding U.S.-made rifles. Initially, IDF troops appeared to side with the settlers, but police officers later intervened, allowing the group to proceed. While Israel claims the visit was unannounced and troops dispersed the settlers, Khanna’s firsthand experience underscores the human toll of occupation and the escalating violence in the region — a sobering glimpse into the ground realities he’s long criticized.
