Now it may be just me, my fellow DUers, but whenever I post these IDF-related atrocities there is always a segment of the viewing audience that will either blame the victim, applaud the IDF, claim the victim faked it, call into question the article or the author of such and label it a lie or any number of the above.
My question is how do you justify shooting a person in the back?
We all know that apparently, IMHO, to the *IDF and their **fawning supporters that Palestinian life is apparently worth less than a pound of dry shit, and any number of them will be killed in an attempt to rescue three Israeli youth.
We also know that the IDF may have snipped two Palestinian youth on Nakba day, but they (*+**) have made attempts to define those deaths as fakes or blaming somebody else for.
I would ask my fellow DUers to review another IDF kill for what it is; a blatant and grotesque use of lethal force (see human rights violation) when it wasn't necessary...to say the very least.

(5,397 posts)Is that since you exclusively rely on propaganda sites for your information you never will have enough facts to post for anyone to make a fair assessment.
Like last time when your op neglected to mention that the palestinian who was killed had been throwing bricks at the soldiers. As well as implying that Israel bombed Gaza as a part of its campaign to find the kidnapped kids, and not because of the rockets fired from Gaza; which were conveniently omitted.
That's actually true. We all definitely know that you honestly believe that all those millions of people all hold a singular, disgusting belief you've attributed to them.
Consider... Whenever anyone says "All (blank) believe (blank)!" they are usually saying more about themselves than anyone else.

(45,850 posts)Israeli troops shot dead a mentally ill Palestinian who approached them in a West Bank refugee camp Sunday, the army said, while another Palestinian was killed in clashes in the city of Ramallah.
Sunday's deaths brought to four the number of Palestinians killed since Israel launched its most extensive military operation in the West Bank in years after the abduction of three Israeli teens on June 12.
Israel has arrested more than 350 Palestinians, most affiliated with the Islamic militant Hamas, and raided some 1,600 locations. Israel has blamed the kidnappings on Hamas, which has praised the act, but not claimed responsibility.
The sweeps have led to growing confrontations after years of relative calm. Increasingly, Israeli troops entering towns and refugee camps are met by crowds of Palestinian stone-throwers.
