IDF soldiers fire tear gas at West Bank school

http://972mag.com/idf-soldiers-fire-tear-gas-at-west-bank-school/100115/

Israeli soldiers fired large quantities of tear gas into the yard of a high school in the Palestinian village of Burin, near Nablus on Monday. According to Rabbis for Human Rights, the incident took place during the morning roll call, and a number of students suffered from tear gas inhalation.

According to Ma’an, soldiers also fired bullets into the air.

An Israeli military spokesperson told Ma’an that stones and empty bottlers were thrown toward settlers’ cars in the area Monday morning, and the youths who threw the stones fled into the school.

It’s worth noting that if it were a Jewish school, it’s highly doubtful that dozens of children would be forced to suffer from tear gas inhalation at school based solely on soldiers’ or police claims that they saw a few youths suspected of some crime entering the premises.

Murdering innocent Palestinian children is what they do best.
Over 400 innocent Palestinian children have been murdered by the IDF in just the last few months.

some would say that it was murder other would say collateral or human shields (the common term for a Palestinian killed by IDF during a conflict)

It ended in August.

Two Palestinians died from wounds in October and neither were children.

get sniped or shot in the back you were on record as saying some of them were acting, or they were fabrications.

Is that a lie?

11. You didn't answer the question, again...

But I'll answer you because unlike yourself I have no reason not to answer anything.

When Palestinians get sniped in the back like Beitunia that's obscene. Going by the evidence so far, it looks like he and his commander are both in trouble as the commander apparently covered for the sniper. We'll see what happens once the case is tried but they should both be in jail.

Looks like I was wrong about the acting and fabrications WRT Beitunia.

=========

Now will you answer the question or will u evade as usual?

I asked you a query WRT you post.

Yes it is obscene...now that they have evidence that cannot be refuted.

But, I'll await until the next IDF murder of Palestinians to see what you come up with WRT validity.


And again, you were previously conversing with azurnoir and not me.
