‘Exterminate the beasts’: How Israeli settlers took revenge for a murder in the West Bank
BBC ^ | May 27 | By Joel Gunter

Posted on 05/26/2024 11:18:47 PM PDT by RandFan

At dawn on Friday 12 April, Israeli teenager Benjamin Achimeir walked out from his settler outpost in the occupied West Bank, with a flock of sheep, and disappeared.

Achimeir, 14, had been living and working on a tiny farm outpost near his family's settlement, Malachei HaShalom - one of nearly 150 Israeli settlements in the West Bank regarded as illegal under international law.

The young teenager was murdered that morning out on the pasture, according to Israeli police, but it would be 24 hours before his body was found

At 08:30 on Saturday, Elisha Yered, a former spokesman for MP Limor Son Har-Melech and extremist settler suspected in the murder, external of a Palestinian man last August, posted in a WhatsApp group for settlers.

"Shabbat Shalom, it's been nearly 24 hours of heavy suspicion that Benjamin was kidnapped from the pasture and still the obvious measures have not been taken," Yered wrote.

...

What followed was a wave of shooting and arson attacks across 11 Palestinian villages in which a dozen homes and more than 100 cars were torched, thousands of animals were slaughtered, four people were shot dead and scores of others were seriously wounded. In the weeks since, five Israeli settlers have been arrested in connection with the reprisal violence, and one Palestinian is being held in connection with the murder of Benjamin Achimeir.

Achimeir's body was found very close to his outpost. But in their rampage the settlers would attack Palestinian villages up to 7km (4.3 miles) away.

Bullshit. You can break the Sabbath if life is at stake, which it was when the child was kidnapped (and murdered).

You just love to hate them Joooos, doncha?

Can anyone translate this into English?

Non-observant Jews don’t follow the strict restrictions.


Jesus said to them, “The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath.
Mark 2:27.

I absolutely love revenge stories. At least until I see how the verdict turns out probably later this week, I am holding myself back as I have all my life. Constricted. Restricted.
Conflicted.

When they link to another site seems to use the word ‘external’ when copying

It should read:

For some, it was not enough. At 08:30 on Saturday, Elisha Yered, a former spokesman for MP Limor Son Har-Melech and extremist settler suspected in the murder of a Palestinian man last August, posted in a WhatsApp group for settlers.

Gosh - I don't know how to express my sadness...

Palestinians should be slaughtered 10 to 1 or even 100 to 1 ratio when they act as belligerents and kill Israelis.

Or is the liptard ideal different, RandFan? Is it your view that Palestinians should be coddled and “understood” when they butcher innocent Israelis?

Judea and Samaria are part of Israel. The so-called "Palestinians" are squatters.

“At 08:30 on Saturday, Elisha Yered, a former spokesman for MP Limor Son Har-Melech and extremist settler suspected in the murder, external of a Palestinian man last August, posted in a WhatsApp group for settlers.”

So the article is claiming this was a false flag murder?

“five Israeli settlers have been arrested in connection with the reprisal violence, and one Palestinian is being held in connection with the murder of Benjamin Achimeir.”

So what murder was Son Har Melech a suspect in?

“”Judea and Samaria are part of Israel. The so-called “Palestinians” are squatters.””

“”Palestinians are squatters””
Glorious! Succinct and accurate.

With attribution, I will be using, repeating these wonderful three words.

I am so sick of anyone using terms like ‘occupiers’ for Jewish people in Judea (Jew-Dea) Jerusalem (Jew-rusalem), or any other ancient Jewish land.

In fact, I hope that Israel re-occupies Southern Lebanon. For many months, hundreds of thousands of Israelis have fled Northern Israel due to the Iran/Hezbollah rocket attacks from Lebanon. When Israel controlled Southern Lebanon, Jews, Christians, Muslims, whoever, could live and work in Northern Israel.

The Gazans can pack up and go live with the rest of the Sand N—  . The whole middle East is full of them.

Seems a rather limpid response to the murder of an innocent.

The animals can only learn in one way - “GOD’S fist is brutal and doesn’t discriminate amongst the guilty”.

Until the evil are brought into law and order, they’re a danger to the good and holy, and must be made to be submissive.

the real question for you is: Do you read this is truth or fiction?

or are you one of those people who thinks that movies and books that are “based on a true story” are what really happened?

And I am sure you would agree that we should give the United States land back to the Indians.

“And I am sure you would agree that we should give the United States land back to the Indians.”

what on earth are you talking about?

are you trying to say that Israel is “occupying” land that isn’t theirs?

As far as the Indians are concerned, I follow Archie Bunkers philosophy-—they should be grateful for all we did for them!

The West Bank is, essentially, the ancient Israelite kingdoms of Judea and Samaria.

Yes, the Jews were there first and the arab muslims are the "settlers and colonialists".

RandFan spews another racist thread. Typically he poses as "just America first."

The Indians really can take care of themselves quite well if they accept each other’s

tribes as they have a money stream from all the casinos which is an unfair

monopoly just as pot shops are muchly licensed to minorities and assorted

druggies. Indians ought to spread the wealth to less fortunate tribes and act like

the nation that they refer themselves as.
