When will the world realize this isn’t about Hamas. Hamas doesn’t govern the West Bank. This is ethnic cleaning. Racial/religious hate. Some day we will be ashamed that we gleefully cheered for this. Killing Christians and Muslims because they worship idols is wrong.
Don’t forget about revenge!
We don’t use that word often enough when it’s completely applicable.
They won’t until it’s tool late.
And then they’ll ask “why didn’t anybody say anything about it?”
“Never again.”
“This could never have happened in our country.”
Some day we will be ashamed that we gleefully cheered for this
Who is gleefully cheering for this?
Western governments with their “unconditional support”… US, UK, Germany, France.
Well Zionists for starters.

Man, I wonder why Gazans haven’t accepted peace with the occupation government. They could’ve got all the benefits that the West bank is currently enjoying.
Well mostly because Israel doesn’t want that. Not kidding there were plenty of opportunities for peace with the Gaza strip that needed someone who valued civilian lives a little more in charge.
Netanyahu propped up Hamas because he wanted the Palestinians divided.
This was reported in Isreali newspapers.
Yeah.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Eighteen Palestinians have been killed and at least 20 others injured by the Israel Defence Forces during an hours-long daytime raid on Jenin city and its refugee camp in the occupied West Bank.
In the latest escalation in violence on the West Bank, occurring against the background of Israel’s war against Hamas in Gaza, the IDF said an airstrikehit an armed squad of men in the city.
Graphic footage from the scene of the strike in Jenin showed the bodies of a number of men, some covered, lying on the ground while a paramedic performed cardiac massage on one of those hit.
Detailing what it said was the sequence of events, the IDF said it entered Jenin overnight on Wednesday, uncovering and destroying a number of improvised explosive devices.
The Higher Arab Monitoring Committee said it had planned to hold a protest at 11am in the centre of Nazareth attended by about 50 people and had informed the police the previous day.
On Wednesday, Israel’s high court had rejected a challenge to a police ban on protests in two towns whose populations are largely Israeli citizens of Palestinian origin.
The original article contains 587 words, the summary contains 189 words. Saved 68%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!
Super sad when hearing about only 18 Palestinians dying in Gaza seems like a good day in the strip.
What a fucked up world we make for ourselves.
West Bank isn’t Gaza
As the raid continued into daylight, a group fired on the Israeli troops, leading to an airstrike.
And from the BBC:
Troops came under fire and a drone was used to attack a group of gunmen, the IDF said. The bulldozers ripped up the already badly damaged streets.
The IDF said troops re-entered the camp hours later, coming under renewed gunfire. Another drone was used to attack gunmen again, it said.
Something makes me think more than half of those 18 dead were shooting when they were killed.
EDIT: typo
Sometimes deadly clashes have been taking place between the IDF and Palestinians in the West Bank as Israel has imposed widespread and often draconian closures on Palestinian cities and as extremist settlers have also launched attacks.
In Israel, meanwhile, police detained four prominent Arab-Israeli politicians, among them Mohammed Barakeh, the chair of the Higher Arab Monitoring Committee, a group comprising political and civil society leaders from the Israeli Arab community, over plans to organise a protest in Nazareth against the war in Gaza.
Something makes me think it got something to do with the oppression. Idk, just a feeling, don’t quote me on this.
The vast majority of the international community considers the settlements illegal under international law, though Israel and the US under the Trump administration dispute this interpretation.
And from the BBC:
Annexation is the term applied when a state unilaterally proclaims its sovereignty over other territory. It is forbidden by international law. A recent example was Russia’s annexation of Ukraine’s Crimea peninsula in 2014.
By and large, Israel has been warned by friend and foe alike not to go ahead with annexation. There are fears that such a move will put peace between Israel and the Palestinians even further out of reach.
The UN’s Middle East envoy has warned that Israeli annexation and Palestinian counter-steps “would dramatically shift local dynamics and most likely trigger conflict and instability in the occupied West Bank and Gaza Strip”
Something makes me think Israel shouldn’t be occupying the West Bank.
Edit: typo
The Palestinians were simply exercising their right to self defense.
