Who are the “settlers” really?

The armed man here looks like someone I could’ve grown up with in BFE Oklahoma, but for some reason he’s running around Palestine, pointing guns in the faces of the native population. Could this really be happening without total US support for Israel? I would guess that no, this wouldn’t be happening. An Israel without US support would be an Israel with a vested interest in fostering good relations with its neighbors.  This clip is a good microcosm of a phenomen happening on a much larger scale, all due to US involvement.
