Further, the investigation found Eygi was standing amid an olive grove over 230 yards away from Israeli troops — more than two football fields away. “Even an Olympic stone thrower cannot make half that distance,” Jonathan Pollak, an Israeli who often joins anti-settlement protests in Beita, told The Washington Post. A soldier on a roof had been aiming his gun toward her and Pollak, he said. After a few minutes of calm, during which Israeli forces didn’t fire off any more ammunition or tear gas, Eygi was shot in the back of the head. Though no footage was captured of the shooting, witness testimony strongly suggests that the lethal gunshot came from the soldier on the roof.
explaining war crimes to an American: “imagine a football field”
Whatever works, I guess?
Turkey: If the US won’t enforce its own rules we will.
Turkey, the USs’ most reliable allie in the Middle East (even when they elect rw chucklefucks) since basically ever.
Calling Israel an allie when they lied to get us into a war with Iraq is a fucking disgrace to countries that have actually held with the US.
(Oh Israel has also bombed US ships while being an “allie”. not sure if more aggreguous than Bibi’s testimony.)
