Do you have a date or news article for the initial border attack by Israel in Metula? I thought that the initial attack was Hezbollah firing rockets on Oct 8th.

If you just mean the part about advanced weapons from America then I agree with you, it’s nonsense, obviously an accurate rifle can be manufactured anywhere.
The not an accident part has a decent argument. Considering that only a few shots were fired, one hit the dumpster she was hiding behind and one hit her in the head, it seems unlikely it was accidental.
The CNN article got comments from two other people present.
A resident:
Dr. Hisham Dweikat, a resident of Beita who took part in the demonstration, told CNN that as the protest was wrapping up, the Israeli military started firing tear gas towards the crowd.
“As people were running away, live fire was shot and a soldier fired directly at the protesters, hitting the American activist in the head from behind and falling to the ground,” he said.
An American activist:
Eygi was crouched behind a dumpster at the bottom of a hill when gunfire began, Vivi Chen, an American activist who was at the demonstration and who volunteers for Faza’a – another pro-Palestinian group which works in partnership with ISM – told CNN. Chen confirmed Eygi was there with ISM.
“We were all at the bottom of the hill and the Israeli army was at the top,” Chen said. “There were two volunteers sitting behind a dumpster and they fired one shot at the dumpster. It hit a metal plane. And then there was another shot and they shot – they shot her in the head.”
…
“They are one of the most advanced armies in the world,” Chen said. “They have weapons from America. It is not an accident that they hit her in the head. That was on purpose. It’s not that they shot a hundred shots at the same time, and she was hit with one. We were all standing still, not moving. Just standing there, and they shot her through the head.”
Israel has killed almost 10% of the people in the last 9 months
This is a slight misinterpretation. The estimate also includes deaths that will occur in the coming months and years because of the war.
I’m struggling to wrap my head around this crime. Two people shoot five bullets at an elementary school before 5am on a Saturday, then leave with their getaway driver. This crime was discovered a few hours later by school staff reporting evidence of a shooting.
This is the ruling:
“Immediately halt its military offensive, and any other action in the Rafah Governorate, which may inflict on the Palestinian group in Gaza conditions of life that could bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part;” Source
Israel claims it’s not inflicting those conditions so it will not stop the offensive. Source
They were already there. “They made the decision to remain even when it got worse because they felt like if they left, then those kids would have no where to go" Source
They were ambushed by gang members, after helping orphans at a church, in an attempted robbery. They were leaving the church and got attacked on their way home.
The vast majority of registered voters support Israel Even among Democrats most (77%) will still vote for Biden even if they disagree with him. I had a hard time finding registered voters opinions vs Democrat voters, so I could be wrong. The exact wording seemed to make a big difference. The most disapproval was seen among young voters. This really isn’t a winning issue on either side.
I’m looking forward to it. It could really give some insight into what the plan is for after the Rafah offensive. I hope some lawmakers are brave enough to ask tough questions about the ending of the war.
What are the new lies, can you point me to the part of the article? Pramilla Patten is a UN official, what motivation does she have to lie about the investigation?
Calling the AP a tabloid is delusional. They don’t always get things right but they deserve some credit.
They likely knew he was actively wielding bladed weapons.
I watched the full video. They were repeatedly told he didn’t have any weapons. The clinician just said the man was violent and kicked him.
I have no idea why they didn’t use less than lethal first, they talk about it but I don’t know which officer was tasked with it. It seems like they didn’t expect him to be armed when they entered.
Go to Applebee’s and order Four-Cheese Mac & Cheese with honey pepper chicken tenders. The chicken tenders are excellent but the Mac and Cheese is the most watery garbage I’ve ever eaten. Then you will understand the true skill of making delicious Mac and Cheese.
Wtf, what did he do? I quite enjoyed his movies. I know he is literally Skeletor but that’s just in a movie.
Israel’s Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich, meanwhile, called for immediate punishment for the Palestinian Authority and expanded settlement construction in the Occupied West Bank as a response.
This is unhinged, wanting to punish the PA for other countries recognizing Palestine.
Yeah I could see it being a strategy to keep as many seats as possible. After looking at the polling, the Conservative party has been declining in popularity since 2020. The best timing for them is ASAP because it’s only getting worse. They are just about as unpopular as they were when Liz Truss was in office.
Polling looks good for Labour. Kinda crazy the prime minister basically torpedoed his own party because it was so bad.
Oof, I really thought it could be a good source of information, even if a little biased. The archived versions I’ve seen are unusable too.
Which Democrats want austerity??? This isn’t the UK.
