A left-wing activist was hit by a rubber bullet at an anti-separation fence protest in Bil'in on Friday, sustaining moderate-to-serious head wounds.

He was evacuated to Sheba Medical Center, Tel Hashomer for treatment.

A number of activists threw rocks at security forces during the demonstration.

In response, Israel Defense Forces troops and Border Policemen threw stun grenades and fired rubber bullets . . .

Because of critical shortages caused by the war, I hope they sterilize the wound with table salt.

"A number of activists threw rocks at security forces during the demonstration."

Herein lies the problem. You screw with the bull, you get the horns. It's really simple logic.

most are probably 'Arab Isrealis' and leftist fellow travelers trying to coerce the Isreali govt into ceding gains from war.

Some fool loaded the dummy ammo instead of the good stuff. I hate it when that happens.

Too bad they didn't use real bullets and real grenades.

If they were demonstating in a Islamic country about brutality against women, or for their hanging of faggots from construction cranes (Like we would ever see left wing activists protest those things) Real bullets and real grenades would be the norm, and the dust settled, the remaining activists captured would be the towns entertainment for the week, with hand chopping, head chopping, foot chopping, and for a grand ending, group stoning. Fingers, hands and feet passed out for the children of course...

Thrown rocks can kill, blind, maim and seriously injure police forces. Response to throwing of rocks should be the same as if they were fired upon. Respond with live rounds fired by police snipers attempting to target the rock throwers. A few occurrences of this type of behavior and the appropriate response would see a very rapid fall off of rock throwing.

Poor guy. He needs to be sent to a mental facility for his mental illness as soon as he recovers from the wound.

He can thank his lucky stars that it only hit him in the head, and not the arse, so there's no chance of brain damage.

I guess I was supposed to feel sorry for him, but the only thing I'm sorry for is that people who stone cops don't get real bullets in return.

Larry Niven's First and Second Laws:

1. Don't throw s*** at an armed man.

2. Don't stand next to someone who is throwing s*** at an armed man.

This is community 'entertainment' in Islamic villages. This is what leftist's are protesting to protect.

Sure, after all, it had a rubber for protection.

The guy in the sixth pic shouldn't smoke. That sh*t'll kill you.

It is a sad world.

I have hundreds of pictures, but they are just too gross (and in the case of the babies these animals rape and them behead, just too sad) to post. Islam hasn't been "hijacked" by a few sicko Arabs, Islam is what those pictures show.

Not all muslim countries are this bad, but they can be. The fundamentalists are trying their best to force every muslim country to follow the Koran and the ways of Islam's sick, murderous, raping, pedophile and thief they call a prophet.

And they are winning, thanks to the idiots on the left who just don't seem to have the brains to know what Islam, practiced to the letter it's "scripture" dictates, is all about.

So called "moderate" Muslims cannot condem what these "fundamentalists" do, because they know that they are just following the Koran and doing what it says. They would be considered apostates for speaking out, and face death as well. They SHOULD abandon the cult, but that also carries with it the threat of death, which "faithfull" familly member just might carry out in order to get their virgin.
