Figure 5. Settlement density by governorate

A close look at this graph confirms that settlement activity is not in and of itself responsible for differences in protests across the governorates. For example, Nablus governorate has greater settlement density than Qalqilya, and yet Qalqilya has more protests. Settlement density in East Jerusalem is greater than in areas of Ramallah, but the average number of protests is much higher in Ramallah governorate. Moreover, a simple correlation test between settlement density and the occurrence of protest shows a very low correlation (at 0.11).67 Thus it becomes clear that the effect of settlements, as an Israeli policy, cannot account for variations in mobilization across the West Bank.
