Palestinian officials say at least 16 people have been killed by Israeli forces and hundreds more wounded during protests at the Gaza-Israeli border.

Thousands had marched to the border at the start of a six-week protest, dubbed the Great March of Return.

The Israeli military said "rioting" had broken out at various places along the border and soldiers had opened fire "towards main instigators".

Later, Israel said it had targeted sites of the Hamas militant group.

Palestinians have pitched five camps near the border for the protest. They are demanding that refugees be allowed to return to homes that are now in Israel.

Sounds like a term pre-Ezekiel 38.

FReepmail me if you’d like to be ON or OFF this Bible Prophecy ping list.

I might not ping for months then 3 times in one day.

Jerusalem, IMHO, is becoming an even bigger issue what with the upcoming May 14 opening of the U.S. Embassy being moved from Tel Aviv. This seems to be what set Erdogan off on his last rant calling for muslims to attack Israel from all sides.

The bias in the BBC reporting really jumps out at you in this piece, with liberal (pardon the pun) use of scare quotes.

What they really said:

Palestinian officials say at least 16 people have been killed by Zionist sons of pigs and apes and blamed the Jew dogs for their perfidy in oppressing the Palestinians, drinking the blood of Christian children during Jewish religious ceremonies, and making up a myth they call the Holocaust.

The fact is there has never been a nation known as Palestine...It is nothing more than a made up name from a small region in the middle east...

So-called “Palestinians” are a combination of Egyptians, Syrians, Lebonese, Iraqis, and Arabs...

The IDF said troops were “firing towards the main instigators” to break up rioting that included petrol bombs and stones being thrown at the fence.

A spokesman said all those who were killed had been trying to breach or damage the border fence, the Jerusalem Post reports

I guess the issue hasn’t been front page center in a while for the Palestinian Authority. Solution? sacrifice some dim witted rubes for the cause and Marxist Media Headlines.

first of all Gaza is not occupied. get your house in order Palestinians. i didn’t see the swells in Ramallah rioting. second of all, this was a set-up - Abbas has come up empty with Trump at the bargaining table - and cannot explained what happened to him with recognition of Jerusalem as capital of Israel. he’s got a problem. and he has a problem with Hamas. they’re all seeing their leverage evaporate and falling back on the old stand-by of sending innocent P’s to slaughter to gin up the population. when..will..they..ever..learn?

“...stones being thrown at the fence...”

16 killed by IDF...

Maybe those idiots who want school kids to have a bucket of rocks to use against some school shooter should pay heed...

Rocks ain’t no good in a gunfight...
