Israeli forces erasing Palestinian lives as if they never existed – 23-year old gunned down in Hebron

Eyewitnesses reported that no knife was originally witnessed on the scene, though one appeared after the soldiers surrounded the body. “I cannot say for sure they put the knife there, but I know even 5 seconds after the shooting I looked, I really looked, and I could see nothing. I am 99% sure of it. But afterwards, it was there.” She added “if an attack was planned at this location it wouldn’t even make sense. He was still 20 meters from the soldiers or checkpoint, in the middle of the night. Why would he wave the knife around?”

Amnesty International on Tuesday demanded Israel to stop a pattern of unlawful killings in occupied Palestinian territory.

“There is mounting evidence that, as tensions have risen dramatically, in some cases Israeli forces appear to have ripped up the rulebook and resorted to extreme and unlawful measures,” said Philip Luther, Director of the Middle East and North Africa Programme at Amnesty International.

Home demolitions as collective punishment: another Israeli colonization strategy

On October 4, at 4:00 in the morning, 8 Palestinian men were arrested under extremely violent conditions by Israeli forces in the city of Nablus, North West Bank. The men have been accused of participating in the killing of two illegal Israeli settlers driving a car on the Beit Furik road on October 1st. According to a spokesperson for the families of the accused men, no evidence has been presented to uphold the accusations.

Confessions of an Israeli traitor

...The cumulative effect of this recent mindless violence is hugely disturbing. We seem to be in a fast and alarming downward swirl into a savage, unrepairable society. There is only one way to respond to what’s happening in Israel today: We must stop the occupation. Not for peace with the Palestinians or for their sake (though they have surely suffered at our hands for too long). Not for some vision of an idyllic Middle East — those arguments will never end, because neither side will ever budge, or ever be proved wrong by anything. No, we must stop the occupation for ourselves. So that we can look ourselves in the eyes. So that we can legitimately ask for, and receive, support from the world. So that we can return to being human...

New PressTV Interview on Israeli “Peace” Rally and Mint Press Article on Kerry Al Aqsa “Deal”

Last weekend, I did an interview with PressTV about the Israeli “peace rally” in Tel Aviv. 3,000-6,000 Israeli liberal Zionists rallied for peace talks of some sort with Palestinians of some sort. They made clear they really, really don’t like Bibi Netanyahu. Oooohhh, Bibi’s runnin’ scared from these political titans. His rule hangs in the balance. This, friends and readers, is the vaunted Israeli “left.”

Speakers from Meretz, Labor and Peace Now addressed the faithful. Before the demonstration began, Aida Touma-Suliman of the Joint List (a Palestinian-Jewish coalition which is third largest in the Knesset) asked to join the speaker list. She was refused because, as Yariv Oppenheimer said, the list was “closed.” He might have added “closed to Palestinians.” In rejecting their participation, he proved once again that liberal Zionism is part of the problem, not anywhere near being the solution. Liberal Zionism concerns itself with not so much with Israel, as with Israeli Jews. Palestinian citizens of this state, and even more so Palestinians of the Territories might as well live on Mars.

Bild: A school teacher in the occupied West Bank has filmed Israeli soldiers storming classrooms in an elementary school in the city of Hebron.

Abdel Moniem Salaymeh said the troops entered every classroom in al-Hajj Ziad Jaber school in the Wadi al-Nasara neighbourhood and searched the children.

"They were looking for signs of stones they said were thrown at them from the school," he said.

Palestinian killed near Ibrahimi Mosque after soldier lightly injured

A 23-year-old Palestinian was shot dead by an Israeli border policeman near the Ibrahimi Mosque in Hebron after an alleged attack on an Israeli soldier on Thursday.

An eyewitness told Ma'an that he saw an Israeli soldier shoot at the Palestinian, hitting him in the shoulder.

“Then the Israeli soldier approached him and shot him in the head and dropped a knife near his body,” the eyewitnesses added.

Another eyewitness said he saw the Palestinian running when Israeli soldiers shot him. "The boy fell to the ground before the soldiers took off his clothes and wrapped him in a black sack."

Israel’s executions of Palestinian teens must end, Amnesty says

Israel is carrying out summary executions of Palestinians, Amnesty International has confirmed.

Sometimes it lets injured Palestinians bleed to death.

The human rights group says it has “documented in depth at least four incidents in which Palestinians were deliberately shot dead by Israeli forces when they posed no imminent threat to life, in what appear to have been extrajudicial executions.”

Amnesty’s condemnation of what it called a “clear pattern” of such summary killings came as the number of Palestinians killed by Israeli forces this month rose to at least 61.

Israeli Prison Guard Who Murdered African Refugee: “What’s to Apologize for?”

Israel Channel 2 News interviewed one of the mob who lynched and murder Habtom Zarhoum at a Beersheba bus station. He had come to Beersheba from his home to attempt to get a work visa from a government office. As he waited for a bus, a Palestinian stabbed and killed an IDF soldier and then began attacking bystanders. Bus station security guards then shot and wounded Zarhoum, an innocent bystander. The shooter claimed that he did so because Habtom didn’t appear like the other victims who were fleeing. Which is true because he was Eritrean and not Israeli.

On October 29, Israeli military forces issued a disturbing message to residents of Aida refugee camp in Bethlehem, telling them that unless they stopped throwing stones "we will gas you until you die."

Israeli military forces raided the camp and fired tear gas and flash grenades indiscriminately at people’s windows, balconies, and down the narrow streets, allegedly in response to Palestinian youths throwing stones at the Israeli separation wall that borders the community.

During the raid, an Israeli soldier in a military vehicle addressed theprotestersand residents of the camp through a loudspeaker in Arabic. The disturbingincidentwas caught on film.

Columnist Melanie Phillips defends Netanyahu’s lie about the Holocaust

Few pundits have defended Benjamin Netanyahu’s by now infamous claim that a Palestinian leader gave Adolf Hitler the idea of exterminating Europe’s Jews. One exception is the right-wing British columnist Melanie Phillips.

Writing in The Jerusalem Post this week, Phillips contends that the Israeli prime minister was “fundamentally correct.”

As “support” for her assertion, Phillips refers to a statement made by Dieter Wisliceny, an associate of Adolf Eichmann, the Holocaust’s architect. During the 1946 Nuremberg trials, Wisliceny alleged that Haj Amin al-Husseini, the grand mufti of Jerusalem, was “one of the instigators of the systematic extermination of European Jewry.”

Phillips neglected to remind her readers that Netanyahu himself had cited Wisliceny last week while the prime minister was trying to “clarify” his accusations about the mufti. That damage limitation exercise had been criticized by historians and even by hawkish media outlets.

Are Israel’s war crimes no longer good for business?

Israeli arms companies promote their products as “combat proven.” That choice of words suggests Israel’s ability to test weapons on Palestinians has become a selling point.

Such a ploy was in evidence following Israel’s 51-day attack on Gaza last year. Once the attack had been completed, Israel’s arms industry rushed to try and impress prospective clients by telling them that new drone technology had been showcased during it.

While drawing attention to the effectiveness of its weapons may have filled the order books of Israeli arms companies in the recent past, it now seems that growing public opposition to the brutal oppression of Palestinians is starting to hit Israel’s military exports.

The heads of Israel’s four biggest arms companies have written to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to notify him that Israeli military exports have declined from $7.5 billion in 2012 to $5.5 billion in 2014. These exports could fall as low as $4 billion this year, according to their letter.

Israel, the Media, and the Anatomy of a Sick Society

....Reading the New York Times, Washington Post, and other allegedly liberal major media outlets, one could be forgiven for thinking that the nature of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is tit-for-tat, that it is the product of an ongoing cause-effect-countereffect relationship. That is precisely how the conflict is portrayed in nearly all so-called ‘respectable’ papers.

Director of BBC television signs The Guardian’s pro-Israel letter

The BBC’s outgoing director of television has signed a letter published in The Guardian last week, pleading for Israel not to be singled out as a target for cultural boycotts.

Danny Cohen, a member of the BBC’s executive board and one of the most senior figures in the organization, joins top Israel apologists — including the chair of Conservative Friends of Israel and the vice-chair of Labour Friends of Israel — in putting his name to the letter.

(The BBC recently announced that Cohen was to move on from his position at the BBC after eight years, but will retain his post through the end of November.)

Ich habe Heute dieses Artikel in "links"unten gepostet und nach drei Stunde wurde es gelöst !!

Video: Israelisches Militär erzählt dem Palästinensischen Flüchtlingslager: "Wir werden euch mit Gas überschütten (hit with gas), bis ihr sterbt." - Annie Robbins - Ein schockierendes Video ist aufgetaucht, das eine laute verbale Drohung des israelischen Militärs an die Bewohner des Aida-Flüchtlingscamps aufgezeichnet hat. Während ein Militärjeep eine leere, ruhige Strasse hinunterrollt, kommt eine drohende Stimme über den Lautsprecher: "Ihr werft Steine, und wir werden euch mit Gas überschütten, bis ihr sterbt." Diese gesprochenen Worte erscheinen beinahe unergründlich.

Middle East Eye (MEE) http://www.middleeasteye.net/news/watch-israeli-soldiers-threaten-bethlehem-refugee-camp-over-loudspeaker-1147215543 berichtet, das Video sei am 29. Oktober von dem 17-j. Yazan Ikhlayel mit seinem iPhone aufgenommen worden. Ikhlayel war gerade im Aida's Community Center mit einer klaren Sicht auf die Strasse darunter. Als Ikhlayel die Szene aufnimmt, verlangsamt der Jeep und bleibt dann stehen und die Drohungen gehen weiter. Bei :28 im Video können Sie sehen, wie Steine geworfen werden. Die Drohung macht auch darauf aufmerksam, dass "einer von euch" festgehalten würde, und wenn sie nicht aufhören Steine zu werfen, würden sie diese Person abschlachten:
Transskription: "Leute vom Aida Flüchtlingscamp, wir sind die Besatzungsarmee. Ihr werft Steine und wir werden euch mit Gas überschütten bis ihr sterbt. Kinder, junge und alte Leute, alle werdet ihr sterben, wir werden keinen von euch am Leben lassen. Und wir haben einen von euch festgenommen, er ist jetzt bei uns. Wir haben ihn aus seinem Haus mitgenommen und wir werden ihn abschlachten und töten und ihr werdet zuschauen, wenn ihr weiter Steine werft. Geht nach Hause oder wir werden euch mit Gas überschütten, bis ihr sterbt. Eure Familien, eure Kinder, wir werden jeden von euch töten. Hört auf mich, geht alle nach Hause, es ist besser für euch."
Middle East Eye sprach mit Ikhlayel. "Das Wichtigste, was ich möchte, ist dass die Leute sehen, wenn sie dieses Video sehen, was die israelische 'Demokratie' wirklich ist." Er betonte auch, dass dies die Proteste nicht stoppen werde: "Sie haben das jetzt zu uns gesagt, sie haben gesagt, "wir sind die Besatzungsarmee". Es beweist, das ist ein Apartheidsland, es ist überhaupt nicht demokratisch".
"Es ist das erste Mal, dass ich so etwas über Lautsprecher zu allen sagen höre", fährt Ikhlayel fort. "Die jungen Leute nehmen nicht hin, was die Soldaten besonders jetzt machen. Sie gehen jeden Tag auf die Strassen (um zu protestieren) und sie hören nicht auf. Sie haben keine Angst vor ihnen."
Als er gefragt wird, ob er meine, die Botschaft der Soldaten würde den jungen Leuten genügend Angst machen, dass sie mit den Protesten aufhören, schüttelte Ikhlayel energisch den Kopf. "Das wird nicht aufhören, bis die Besatzung endet", betont er.
Middle East Eye sprach auch mit dem Filmemacher und Fotojourmalisten Mohamed al-Azza, der in der Vergangenheit von den israelischen Streitkräften gezielt angegriffen worden ist: Wie Ikhlayel betont auch al-Azza die (ungewöhnliche) Selbstdarstellung der Soldaten als "Besatzungsarmee": "Es ist schon eine lange Zeit her, dass wir die Soldaten mit einem solchen Sprecher erlebt haben", sagte al-Azza. "Aber wir waren von einem Wort wirklich überrascht, normalerweise nennen sie sich IDF (Israeli Defense Forces), sie sagen nicht IOF (Israeli Occupation Forces) wie wir, aber das hat etwas Gutes für uns, dass die Menschen außerhalb des Landes das hören. Sie haben es zu uns gesagt, 'wir sind die Besatzungsarmee'... "Normalerweise wenn wir über Palästina sprechen, erzählen wir Leuten außerhalb, was geschehen ist, und das für gewöhnlich, wenn die Sodaten etwas getan haben, was sie auch sonst immer machen, aber jetzt ist es gut, dass die Leute es von den Soldaten selber hören können. Sie haben gesagt: Sie haben in ihrer Botschaft gesagt, wir werden euch töten und wir werden das tun und dies. Es ist sehr wichtig, dass die Menschen international hören, was für ein Zeug wir ständig von ihnen zu hören bekommen."
Ma'an berichtet: Israeli soldiers tell Palestinians: ‘We will gas you until you die' http://www.maannews.com/Content.aspx?id=768559
"In diesem Statement sehen wir – unter einer Reihe potentieller krimineller Vergehen – eine öffentliche Drohung palästinensische Zivilisten zu töten und einen Gefangenen zu exekutieren", sagt Simon Reynolds, Koordinator der Rechtsanwaltschaft bei dem BADIL Resource Center for Palestinian Residency and Refugee Rights, gegenüber Ma'an.
"Obwohl solche Drohungen entsetzlich sind, sind sie nicht unbedingt überraschend. Im Licht der steigenden Zahl toter Zivilisten unter den Palästinensern fügen solche Drohungen nur die Worte zu den Taten. "Was wir sehen, ist augenscheinlich eine Politik der Gesetzlosigkeit, in der die israelischen Streitkräfte tödliche Gewalt praktisch straflos anwenden können. Besonders beunruhigend ist, dass dies eine Politik ist, die – at the very minimum – von den höchsten Ebenen in der Regierung stillschweigend akzeptiert wird. "Zahlreiche (Menschen-)Rechtsgruppen haben öffentlich Israels unverhältnismäßige militärische Reaktion auf Demonstrationen und angebliche Anschläge verurteilt.
"Willkürliches oder absichtliches Schiessen auf Beobachter und Demonstranten, die keine drohende Gefahr darstellen, ist eine Verletzung internationaler Standards, an die die israelischen Sicherheitskräfte gebunden sind", sagte Kenneth Roth, der Exekutivdirektor von Human Rights Watch am 11. Oktober, nachdem ein Forschungsassistent von HRW angeschossen und verletzt worden war, als er eine Demonstration in der Nähe von Ramallah beobachtete.

Israeli forces shot and wounded at least 2,617 Palestinians with live and rubber-coated steel bullets through October, the Palestinian Red Cross said Sunday, as clashes carried on into the new month.

A Red Crescent spokesperson told Ma'an that at least 760 Palestinians were shot with live rounds across the occupied Palestinian territory, while another 1,857 were hit with rubber-coated steel bullets.

He said that a further 5,399 Palestinians were treated for excessive tear gas inhalation during the period, while another 246 were injured in other ways, including assault by Israeli soldiers and burns from tear gas canisters.

The spokesperson said that it brought the total injured during October to 8,262 Palestinians.

A paramedic from the Red Crescent said Israeli forces would not allow their medics to examine the young man.

"Israeli soldiers forced us at gunpoint to leave the area," the paramedic said. "From the amount of bleeding, the young man must have been shot several times."

A Palestinian witness told Ma'an he saw Israeli troops firing several rounds at a "young man" who was "far" from the main street. The witness said the young man fell to the ground before Israeli soldiers surrounded him.

Under direction of Deputy Foreign Minister Tzipi Hotovely and Director-General Dore Gold, Israel has updated its foreign ministry cadets training course to better meet the serious challenges posed by global Palestinian solidarity and the BDS movement in particular.

New additions to the six-month training course include a tour of the Jewish settlement in East Jerusalem's Silwan neighbourhood. The Israeli press reports that the tour will be led by David Be'eri, founder of the Elad Association which drives settlement in the heart of this occupied Palestinian neighbourhood located just outside Jerusalem's Old City and adjacent to the al Aqsa mosque.

Boycott Zabludowicz Art Trust

Over the last three decades, as Israel’s economy has ‘opened up’ to global capitalist investment, and its status in the community of nations has been normalised, the Israeli state has done everything it can to close down on the possibility of Palestinian liberation. The two processes appear to be contradictory but are in fact mutually supportive. As Israeli capitalist investment in the domestic arms industry has declined, and Israeli capitalist integration into global markets for communications, real estate, and art has increased, the ability of Israel to demand international support for its colonial aggression has increased also. Likewise, as Israeli oppression of Palestinian resistance to colonial rule becomes more sophisticated, Israel-based investment opportunities tend to grow in allure.

Israel demolishes 2nd Palestinian home in East Jerusalem

Israeli forces demolished a building in the Beit Hanina neighborhood of East Jerusalem on Monday, the second Palestinian house demolition of the day.

Israeli forces escorted bulldozers to the neighborhood and surrounded a housing complex containing three apartments belonging to the Disouqi and Najm families.

Lawyer Khaldoun Najm, owner of one of the apartments, told Ma'an that each apartment was 120 square meters in size, and that a total of eight people, including three children, had been made homeless.

There was no prior notification for the demolition, Najm said, adding that the Israeli municipality agreed on Sunday to change the order to a notification instead.

Israeli forces demolished the home with all of the families' belongings inside, he said.

Israel jails teen for “intifada” Facebook post

Writing on Facebook can result in being locked up if you are a Palestinian citizen of Israel.

That became clear in mid-October when 19-year-old Anas Khateeb was arrested and charged with incitement over three comments he had posted on the social media website. The comments read: “Jerusalem is Arab,” “long live the intifada” and “I am on the waiting list.”

Why did Netanyahu dig up the mufti?

The storm unleashed by Netanyahu when he addressed the Zionist Congress garnered responses from beyond the borders of the state of Jews, responses ranging from the tagging of Bibi as one who lost contact with reality to insults at his gross impertinence.

Why did Amnesty say one thing in English and another in Hebrew?

A week ago, Amnesty International published a report on Israel’s summary executions of Palestinians.

As The Electronic Intifada reported, the human rights group said it had “documented in depth at least four incidents in which Palestinians were deliberately shot dead by Israeli forces when they posed no imminent threat to life, in what appear to have been extrajudicial executions.”

It examined the killings of teenagers Saad al-Atrash, Dania Irsheid, Fadi Alloun and Hadil Hashlamoun.

“In some cases,” Amnesty said, “the person shot was left bleeding to death on the ground and was not given prompt medical assistance, in violation of the prohibition of torture and other ill-treatment.”

Amnesty published an Arabic-language release of its report that is faithful to the English version.

Yet the no-holds-barred report was considerably softened for the organizations’s much shorter Hebrew press release (translation below).

At least 14 Palestinians were shot and injured with rubber-coated steel bullets in clashes that erupted in Qasra village in the northern occupied West Bank district of Nablus after settlers descended on the area in an attempt to attack residents, a local monitor said.

Ghassan Daghlas, who monitors settler activity in the northern occupied West Bank, said clashes broke out after Israeli forces responded to a dispute between Israel settlers and local Palestinians from the village.

The settlers had tried to attack the eastern area of the village, but were stopped by locals who forced them to retreat before Israeli forces arrived at the scene, Daghlas said.

Hebron residents live in fear as killings, closures mark daily life

Israel’s response to an upsurge in violence since the beginning of October has seen unprecedented closures of Hebron’s Old City, with residents living in a constant state of fear amid killings by the Israeli army and attacks from Jewish settlers.

Hebron, the largest city in the occupied West Bank, has borne the brunt of violence in recent weeks, with at least one third of the more than 70 Palestinians killed by Israel’s army residents of the district, nine of whom were shot dead in the Old City over the past week.

The city is no stranger to restrictions and violence, with over 800 Jewish settlers protected by more than double that amount of Israeli soldiers all intermingled among 30,000 Palestinian residents.

Israel’s decades-long policy of holding Palestinian bodies

Israel’s treatment of the Palestinian dead, and its impact on the living, is being questioned once again as the government continues to withhold the bodies of 22 Palestinians killed following attacks on Israelis during the month of October.

The refusal to turn over the dead to their families -- a policy that Israeli authorities supposedly halted near the end of the Second Intifada -- has provoked controversy among Israeli officials and led tomass protests in the occupied West Bank.

A total of 33 Palestinian bodies were held by Israel during October, and eleven have since been returned, according to the Palestinian National Committee for Retrieving Bodies of Martyrs.

The majority of those being held had killed or injured Israeli military and civilians in attacks, but the actual involvement of others in attacks at the time of their death has been disputed by the United Nations and Amnesty International.

Saudi team refuses to play qualifying match in the West Bank

Tensions boiled between the Palestine and Saudi football federations over the latter’s refusal to play the second leg of a qualifying match for the 2018 World Cup and 2019 Asian Cup in the occupied West Bank, citing security reasons. ...
.... The first leg of Palestine versus Saudi Arabia was originally set to take place in Ramallah, with the Palestine team hosting the Saudi one. But the two federations agreed to swap the fixtures, and on 11 June, Palestine played Saudi Arabia in Jeddah, losing 3-2.

After agreeing to the fixture swap, Tayseer Nasrallah, the spokesperson for the PFF, said, “We emphasised to the Saudi brothers the high importance of their support for the Palestinian team hosting its home games in Palestine.”

The Saudi team’s decision not to play in Ramallah strained relations with the head of the Palestine Football Federation, Jibril Rajoub, who categorically rejected Saudi’s request to play the match outside the West Bank in a neutral zone. To Rajoub, this option represented a threat to the “sovereignty” of the Palestine Football Federation.

“We need to point out to all those who fear normalisation with Israel that no such fear should arise as long as the goal is to play against the team of Palestine on the land of Palestine,” he stated.

Yitzhak Rabin never supported Palestinian statehood

Ahead of the 1992 elections in Israel there was a televised debate between Yitzhak Rabin and incumbent prime minister Yitzhak Shamir. At the end of the debate Shamir was allowed to ask his opponent a question of his choice: “Do you really want a Palestinian state within the land of Israel?” Rabin answered decisively: “I oppose a Palestinian state between us and the Jordan [river]. At the same time, I don’t not want 1.7 million Palestinians to become citizens of Israel.” Rabin added that he voted in favor of the “autonomy plan” that Menachem Begin proposed as prime minister in 1978.....
..........The Israeli Left, meanwhile, has invented a populist version of Yitzhak Rabin that never existed. Since Rabin’s assassination the Israel Left has shoved those facts and details under the rug in order to manufacture its own messiah. Yitzhak Rabin’s widespread use of the word “peace” will always enable the Israeli Left to present him as a supporter of Palestinian statehood, despite the fact that he always opposed it. You will never hear a leader of one of Israel’s left-wing parties admitting at a peace rally that Rabin opposed Palestinian statehood. The myth must be protected so that the Left can be trusted, even if in reality the basis of its mythology is unfounded.

Palestinian women's rights overlooked in favour of national liberation

....Kuttab believes that many NGOs and donors take women’s rights as an abstract concept, and their actions are “irrelevant to the context”. They focus on either the political or social oppression of women, and disregard the manner in which the two work together to reinforce one another.

“To be relevant, we cannot just implement UN guidelines and allow them to trickle down, it loses its meaning at a local level,” Kuttab explained. Abu-Duhou echoed this sentiment: “We can’t keep thinking that the state of Palestine is a normal state... what works here doesn’t work anywhere else, we are unique in that sense.”

Within the process of building a state, Kuttab believes it is imperative that women’s rights are not forgotten. By combining the struggle for national rights with the struggle for women’s rights, there is hope for a future Palestinian state structure based on principles of social equality.

She affirms that Palestine needs “to find a formula where women’s rights are on the agenda and not de-linked to the national struggle”.

“Women’s rights are intertwined with national rights, they should go hand in hand,” Abu-Duhou told MEE. “When we’re building a state, we know what kind of a state we want: democratic, liberal... within that ideology we build rights, and women’s rights should be at the forefront of the national rights movement... one shouldn’t take a precedence over the other.”

“[Women] need to liberated, and at the same time we need to liberate our land.”

A Palestinian Bedouin member of Knesset on Wednesday said Israel’s holding of Palestinian bodies was “immoral and inhuman,” as the Israeli government continued to grapple with the legitimacy of the policy.

”As usual, every immoral act is accompanied by a security-related explanation, but what is the explanation for this act?” MK Talab Abu Arar of the Joint List asked during a Knesset meeting, according to a Knesset press release.

Israel is holding the bodies of 22 Palestinians who were shot dead following their alleged involvement in attacks on Israeli military and civilians during October.

Israeli news site pulls children's game 'Neutralize the Terrorist'

An Israeli news site on Thursday removed a game inviting players to help Israeli security forces “neutralize terrorists” shortly after it appeared on the site’s main children's section, calling the game a “mistake.”

News site Arutz Sheva (Channel 7) posted the game, wherein players “assist security forces in neutralizing the terrorists that are attacking us.”

The site pulled the game -- entitled “Neutralize the Terrorist” -- from the main page after media criticism, according to Israeli news site the Jerusalem Post.

The game offered a choice of three weapons with which to either kill or beat the “terrorist,” who is brandishing guns, Molotov cocktails, and a knife.

Palestinian parents told to keep children away from knives

Jerusalem’s educational authority has sent out a letter to Palestinian parents of students in East Jerusalem asking them to keep their children away from knives and inform them of the “finality of death”.

The letter, distributed in East Jerusalem on Monday and Tuesday to around 20,000 parents, called on parents to look for "out of the ordinary behaviour which raises concerns the child may cause harm to themselves or someone else” and to prevent their children gaining access to "dangerous objects such as knives".

"Children have a hard time understanding and interpreting events and messages they are exposed to, and adults have the central role in mediating these for them, and helping them understand them properly, and not to be drawn in by rumours and distorted information,” read the letter.

The ‘non-lethal’ chemical weapon killing Palestinians

On Thursday evening Israeli forces stormed Aida refugee camp in the southern occupied West Bank city of Bethlehem. Jeeps descended on the camp from all entrances shooting off tear gas rounds indiscriminately, Akkram Huessni, a young man from the camp told Mondoweiss.

Families rushed to close their windows, shoving cloth in any crevice that could allow the noxious gas to seep in, a well practiced drill in homes across the occupied West Bank.
