A Palestinian teenager with US citizenship was killed after being shot by an Israeli settler in the West Bank town of Turmus Ayya, Palestinian officials said on Sunday, as tensions continue to escalate amid a surge in settler violence and near-daily confrontations between Israeli settlers and Palestinians across the occupied territory.
Omar Mohammad Rabea, 14, was shot along with two other teenagers by an Israeli settler at the entrance to Turmus Ayya, the town’s mayor, Adeeb Lafi, told Reuters.
“Two of them were transported by ambulance to a nearby medical center and then to the hospital. The army arrived at the scene and detained the third injured boy, who is 14 years old and holds US citizenship,” Lafi said
Edit: New articles claim the child was killed by the IDF not an Israeli colonist
IDF: A Palestinian Amer… That’s still Palestinian! Fuck that kid! Fire away!
The US has shown time and time again that Israel can kill as many Americans as they want without any consequence. The US cares far more about their foreign policy in the region than American lives
Known for over fifty years https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Liberty_incident
Do you think they care about any regular Americans?
Israel’s just bringing the American school experience to homesick American kids /s
There is nothing, and I mean nothing, that Israelis Love More than killing Americans. They love it even more than killing Palestinians. When it’s a double whammy oh they’re over the moon. But being able to kill Americans, which Israel does with shocking regularity, is a joy to them because they’re the only country that can do it with absolute impunity. Sure some other countries can sometimes get away with it, but Israel can do it blatantly and with no sense of dread, because they know there is no way America will ever do anything about it.
Sick fucks need to be stopped. This daily atrocity must end.
Who CARES how many AMERICAN CHILDREN Israel Kills?
-Pro Life Patriots!
Their metric:
As far as the pro life is concerned, once they’re born they’re fair game.
It’s like that law that prohibits catching juvenile crabs. Gotta make sure there’ll be more kids to hunt in the future.
These are also the same people who prefer kids act as bullet sponges during school hours, then
groom/coerceencourage the survivors just before they come of age to berapists, pillagers, and murderersbullet sponges tofuel corporate and imperialist interests“defend the country.”Bonus points for tossing veterans aside like trash the moment they step foot back on US soil 🤡
There’s an extra layer of schadenfreude for these pricks when the deceased are poor, brown, and/or of (nonwhite) immigrant background.
Let’s just say I wouldn’t cry reading the obituary of a forced birther. /rant
Ya know that’s the problem with the indiscriminate murder of men women and children. Some of them may be from the superpower that funds your entire government.
Course, it’s not like magats or pro-zionist democrats will give even half a shit… but if someone competent was in the white house… ah who am I kidding. I have no idea why isreal gets treated like the favorite child that can do no wrong whilst being an absolute shit-stain.
USA is perfectly able to completely ignore its citizens being murdered if it is aligned with the interest of US ruling class. See USS Liberty, SS Athenia, or people killed by US cops.
Israel is the only chance the US has a permanent base in the region for refueling warplanes.
That’s your reason. That’s the reason for alllll this special treatment and kow-towing.
Yo we don’t care when americans shoot american children, why should we care if someone else wants to get in on it? No way to prevent this. ('sides, with a name like Omar Mohammad Rabea the kid had to have been brown)
It sounds good if you have want to sell more weapons to someone if it was a white gurl that got killed.
As always fuck Israel. Wish a painful death to all them settlers and occupiers.
If the US survives I hope we abandon them and bar them from the US even if us citizens. (US citizens that are now occupying or IDF. )
i hate getting these palestine news holy shit
Same. It would be great if Israel stopped committing genocide so this news would not exist.
agreed, thats the hard part.
