Destroying Palestinian Homes and Livelihoods

Via Electronic Intifada:

This is an area of intense Israeli settlement activity, where some villages, such as Susya, have been ordered totally destroyed by the occupation forces.

Video shot by Operation Dove (website) shows bulldozers, accompanied by Israeli occupation forces, carrying out demolitions of a two storey home belonging to Mohammad Musa Mohammad Abu Aram, and a rainwater cistern belonging to Mahmud Ahmed Nasser Nawaja, as distraught villagers watched.

…Israel had demolished 476 Palestinian owned structures in the occupied West Bank in 2012, as of September’s monthly report from UN OCHA.

In 2011, according to the UN, over 1,100 Palestinians, half of them children, were displaced by Israeli demolitions, an increase of 80 percent on the previous year.

In so-called “Area C,” 60 percent of the West Bank under full Israeli rule with no role for the Palestinian Authority, there were some 3,000 outstanding demolition orders, 18 targeting schools, as of July 2011.

  2. No, someone like Rachel Corrie would not want to be standing in front of those suckers holding a sign. A few RPGs would be more more effective in this case.

  4. I can't accept that the Press is constantly calling them Israeli SETTLERS, when the proper name for them is LAND ROBBERS or LAND THIEVES !

  5. Over the past 19 years, we've seen what the Palestinians have done with the autonomy generously granted to them by Israel. They've slaughtered Israeli grandmothers and toddlers, pregnant women and elderly rabbis.

    They've set off their nail-studded, rat poison-laced bombs in shopping malls, disco's, pizzeria's, cafe's and university cafeterias. They've turned school buses into blazing infernos, invaded home and shot mothers and children in their beds. They've dragged 13-year-old boys to caves and stoned them to death. Those who don't actually pull the triggers, detonate the bombs or do the stoning, celebrate the atrocities in the streets of Ramallah and Jenin, as they danced in those same streets when other Arabs crashed two planes into the World Trade Center.

    These sadists even built an exhibition celebrating the Sbarros massacre. When do you think the Arabs will realize, that murdering Israeli pizza-eaters, dance-club people, school kids, teenagers and sleeping five-year-olds is barbaric? Do these Arabs have any humanity. It is becoming increasingly obvious, that the followers of Muhammed are not human beings.

    1. "Over the past 64 years, we've seen what the Israelis have done with the autonomy generously granted to them by the Imperial City and Europe."

      Fixed. Now get your head out your rear end.

  7. Google this story.
    Female Palestinian terrorist does not regret murder of 15 civilians at Sbarro pizza shop that she planned.
    Oct 23, 2011
    Ahlam Tamimi was happy to learn that 8 Israeli children were murdered at the Sbarros terrorist attack in 2001 instead of the 3 children she thought originally.
    Read her interview. Again i ask John Glaser, do the Palestinians have a conscience?

  8. Why does Islamic Jihad and Hamas fire rockets from a school at Israel praying that the other side return fire and kill some of it's children. Thats Gaza today. The Arabs are the only people in the world that go out day by day figuring ways to get their children to die in front of the world press.
    What a sick demented society these Arabs are.

    1. "What a sick demented society these Jews are."

      Ok. I "fixed" your accusation to show you how bigoted you are when it;s turned around. So please, stop being a hypocrite, site down, shut up, and learn Mr. Bigot. Next….

  9. Yall Palestinians are nothing but crack pipe welfare recipients. Ya get billions $ of international aid, and some of it comes from Israel and the US. Why don’t ya make lives of your selves, make businesses, farming ect. and? learn how to to work, for your families instead of wasting all the money on C-4. I’m against abortions, but you are the exception..

    1. > Why don’t ya make lives of your selves, make businesses, farming ect.

      Maybe because Israel destroys their farms all the time?

  10. Hey, nice blog and thanks for the helpful content you put up. As a fellow blogger, I can suggest you a website where you can purchase “laser” targeted unique visitors, for a pretty good price, so you get specific visitors that match your content, not just random people. It’s called Growstats. Many fortune 500 companies are using it, and from my personal experience, the investment pays off in time. I did increase my online sales significantly, as I was able to bring in thousands of visitors, specifically targeted for the stuffI sell. Also the quality traffic helped me increase my google rankings.

    Alright, hope you found my recommendation helpful for your blog.

    Keep up the good work

    Cheers from rainy Vancouver, Canada

  11. DanKelso1 You are an uninformed, nasty redneck. No sense saying shame on you – psychos know no shame.

  12. I don't know if you have a gun in your hand or not DanKelso, or if is kalskenkove, but your writing is scary as if you already have made your mind being a true and cause worthy sob red neck armed or not. Go get a life or at least be educated about the issues before starting your BS.

  19. You were supposed to stop reading at this point (assuming that a) some of you can actually read and b) you read that far into this waste of time blog post): "There was no way of being certain if the strike was indeed American, or for that matter if it was a drone strike at all, although it had all the markings of one." thANKS
