Why this leaning score

The use of 'settler' instead of 'Israeli' or more neutral term emphasizes a distinction that can be perceived as negative towards settlers, suggesting a slightly left-leaning framing. The tone is factual and neutral, but the word choice subtly leans one way.

Written under an earlier scoring contract, which gave a paragraph rather than checkable quotes. Re-analysing this article replaces it.
