Israeli soldiers have destroyed 11 homes and other structures in an isolated community in the occupied West Bank, leaving 50 people homeless, amid a reported uptick in house demolitions and spiralling violence in the Palestinian territory.
Contractors with bulldozers accompanied by Israel Defense Forces (IDF) troops arrived in Umm al-Kheir, a village mostly home to shepherds, on Wednesday morning and demolished six houses, tent residences, an electricity generator, solar cells and water tanks, according to residents and Israeli activists who documented the proceedings. Agricultural land and fences were also damaged and trees uprooted.
The demolition has destroyed about a third of the village’s infrastructure.
Good job, Israel. You never know when your forces might be attacked by a guerilla sheep.
I hear they’re also training the chickens to be snipers.
Israel is quickly making itself an enemy of the world.
It is an enemy of the world. With all its imperfections the UN with the ICJ and ICC were the best development we had towards a rule based international order, where diplomacy and cooperation could be a counterbalance to barbarism and the rule of the jungle.
Now Israel is making it abundantly clear, that all of this is worthless, while dragging the West down morally and ethically and on top of all of this actively attacking those institutions.
Israel wants the world to devolve into barbarism and the US, Germany, UK and other supporters are actively cheering it on with their actions, while providing transparent words of “hmm. we need peace and stuff.” while delivering even more weapons and preventing yet another diplomatic solution.
I don’t think I can agree with everything you are saying; but I do think the new paradigm has something to do with the paradigm of a diverse media landscape these days, but I also believe those in power are so addicted to power they would do anything to bomb us back to place where we only had zero independent media and only the one remaining state media available…… thankfully though we will now have independent media for as long as we have landfills full of e waste
They are provoking the West Banks to attack.
You laugh but India arrested a spy pigeon
Twice
There’s no way an insane ethonostate doesn’t have the same type of behavior if not worse.
