IOF Shoot Dead First 3 Anti-Wall Protesters
Palestine Media Center


Six Palestinians have been killed since Thursday, including three protesters against the Apartheid Wall Israel is building on occupied Palestinian territory, as Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) stormed into Al-Aqsa Mosque compound-- Islam’s third holiest place-- after Friday’s prayers, wounding at least 24 worshippers.

IOF on Thursday shot dead three Palestinians in the West Bank village of Beddow west of Jerusalem while they were protesting the confiscation of their land for Israel’s Apartheid Wall.

The spokesman for the Palestinian Red Crescent Society (PRCS) said that Mahmoud Rayan, 25, was killed by IOF live rounds in confrontations in Beddow village during an attempt by Palestinians to prevent the building of the apartheid separation wall. Zakaraya Mahmud Eid, 26, was also shot dead in the same site.

A doctor at Sheikh Zayed hospital in Ramallah said that he had examined the body of a third Palestinian named Zakaraya Dahouk and found out he was killed by bullets of an M-16 machine gun.

1. You would think that these protestors could take a message.
It's like those misguided wackos who ran into the Nativian Church, protecting Palestinian gunmen. What would happen if I went to Washington D.C. and started pelting cops with rocks everyday. They'd have to scrape ny carcass off the street.

2. you may have a point there
it's obvious that the IDF murders anyone they please - so why would non-violent protestors think they'd be treated any different?

3. Some people fight for what is right, it's a chance you have to take
unless you want to lick the boots of IDF fascists for the rest of your life

4. Yeah. The message...
...that non-violent protest is pointless.

If you started pelting cops with rocks, I would hope that you'd be arrested, charged, convicted and put in jail. Or given mandatory mental evaluation.

BTW - would you be protesting something in Washington, or just arbitrarily throwing rocks at every cop you ran into?

9. Pelting cops with rocks is non-violent?
These wackos want to get a reaction from IDF in order to go crying "victim" to European press.

11. Well, if that's true...
why don't the crack IDF restrain from reacting, thus robbing these 'wackos' from a propaganda coup in the European press. Hmmm?

13. They should allow themselves to be pelted with rocks?
:P So why not just let them shoot the cops while they're at it. Then they should open the gates and let terrorists go into jewish neighborhoods and slaughter a few families.

they let the IDF go into Palestinian neighborhoods and slaughter families, and you don't seem to have a problem with that.

12. Guess by extension
that negates the Jerusalem Post as a credible source.
Not that I have a problem with that.

15. better talk about sources anyway
it's much more productive than discussing the fact that the IDF obviously murders anyone they wish to murder (and get away with it)
