Israeli soldiers shoot blindfolded, handcuffed Palestinian as he tried to flee

In any country in the world a perp in custody who attempts to run from cops is liable to get shot.

Palestinian supporters subtract all of the attacks and provocations against Israel from their accounts, and it makes it sound like Israel's defense force does these things out of shear cruelty.

The teenager was handcuffed and blindfolded. How fast do you think he was able to run exactly? An IDF soldier could have jogged after him and caught him, ffs.
 
The IDF must be very old to have had rocks thrown at them for that long.

Maybe they should move elsewhere if it's so bad. Australia has lots of spare desert.

Your not wrong. But our country is not as dead as you think. I recently took a flight from Darwin (known as the top end) All the way down to Adelaide where i live. That's as far north and south as you can travel in Australia. This was my first flight north to south and there was no clouds the whole flight. I am Aussie and i couldn't believe how the landscape changed from 1 hour of lush green, then 1 and a half hours of absolute dead red earth, then 1 hour of just bush and farming land. That was the best perspective i ever got of my own country.
 
So yes your kind of right. There is a big dead red spot in the middle of our country. Then there is WA.(western Australia) That's the biggest state in our country. Its 40% of Australia and half of that state is desert. Never been there. But been all over the east side (Sydney ,Brisbane, Cairns, etc.)

Um, no. First of all the IDF is military, not cops. And secondly, cops shooting unarmed juveniles only seems to happen in the US...

How else are they going to get those inconvenient people to leave already?

You talk as if Israel doesn't have a history of rubbing the Palestinians' fur the wrong way every time they settle down enough the world might actually stand up for them.
 
You guys need to look after yourselves for a change. Like Trump said, lets make America great again. :peace:peace This is my first post on this forum. Hopefully it is the first of many, but only time will tell. Israel is the home of the holocaust survivors. Yes they took a small slither of land but they had 2 have somewhere 2 live.

And they could have peacefully co-existed with the folks who were living there when they got there

They did not do that.

Quite the opposite in fact
 
That's because they have had rocks thrown at them and terrorist attacks against them since 1948. Wouldn't you be retaliatory if you couldn't live in peace.

Try being an oppressed minority in an apartheid state that arose where your family had lived for generations.

See how kind and understanding you are when armed men bust your door down at dinner time, hold your family at gunpoint and tear your house apart in a random search.

See how friendly you are to the people who destroy your wells because the water belongs to them.

See how reasonable you are when you can't get a building permit and if you build anyway your house gets knocked down. Hell, have your son or daughter commit a terrorist act and get your house torn down.

Not a single staunch supporter of Israel would tolerate their lot if they woke up tomorrow Palestinian.

Israelis don't support Israel as completely as Americans do.

That hardly excuses the sort of behavior that the Israeli government has consistiently engaged in in regards to the people already living there.

But i thought Jews originated in Israil, so wouldn't you return to your home shore's after the war and 50% of your peoples population had been murdered.

Rocks? They need a Second Amendment.
 
I certainly would not support the Palestinians. They are a bunch of thugs and extremist terrorists.

In two posts we've managed to slander both Palestinians and Israelis. Nice work.

60% of gun deaths in USA are due 2 suicide by gun. If there is an easy way 2 kill your self more people will do it. Second amendment is the best way 2 reduce population.

This is a complete load of bull****. There is no border incursions (home invasions ) by Israeli personnel into Palestine.

900 years later?

If you want more there's the "breaking the silence".movement by current and former IDF soldiers and multiple cases of Israelis refusing to serve in the occupied territories.

All from actual Israelis.

You obviously are unaware that Israelis don't support Israel's policies anywhere near as absolutely as Americans do.

Great Israeli PR is responsible for that.
 
The United States are the Imperialists. We must stand with Israel. Once a war starts, you have to finish it.

When has Israel ever stood with America? Did you notice any IDF soldiers in Iraq, Afghanistan, Vietnam...anywhere? No, on the contrary this supposed 'ally' spies on America, sells US military secrets to China and her leader smugly describes America as an 'easily manipulated pushover'.
There is no reason to stand with Israel, a wealthy nuclear power made richer by the billions it shafts US taxpayers for, every year, with $38 billion to date. And what for, exactly?

I hadn't thought of that. Also, we regularly read of the kids of gun owners getting their little hands on them with predictable results.

Yes they think its a toy. I knew the stats on child deaths under 5 in America but have forgotten them. If i find that information again i will post the results.
 
We shouldnt support anybody in that region of the world.

Like Trump said . Lets make America great again. Get the hell out of everywhere before china leapfrogs you in an instant. Its only a matter of time. There forces are going to be the greatest in the world in 5 years. Lets hope they use there forces for good rather than evil. Other wise you yanks will need the rest of the world like you never have.
 
You guys think you saved the world. But little do you know.. Australia suffered more losses per head of population than any other country in ww1 and ww2. We tried our heart out.
 
Wheres our dear friend apocalypse on this?

Disgusting actions by a criminal regime. This continues to happen a d yet we are told Israel is a moral democracy.

They are not. They are a bankrupt right wing autocracy.

He's lucky he wasn't shot before they handcuffed him.

Why do you people support the criminals and terrorists? What's wrong with you?

They are too busy protecting themselves from all the terrorist countries that surround them. Why do you stand with the terrorists?
 
Not true, and certainly not so common as you suggest. Where do police blindfold "perps"? Why not stick out a foot and trip him? The IDF behave with impunity.

You just take what a Palestinian supporter says at face value. I would wish to have independent confirmation.
