I’m surprised Biden didn’t make him a Federal Judge. Have you kept track of their names when they rule against Trump?

[Da Coyote]

Source: ABC. Think of Biden being the source and laugh accordingly. You KNOW there’s more to this. And somewhere within will be the sign of the religion of hate, rape, lies, and misogyny.

So Jews living on the land of their ancestors over 3000 years are “settlers,” but Jordanians who invaded and annexed the “west bank” of Judea in 1948 are “residents”? Make it make sense.

[servo1969]

“according to Palestinian health officials”

That’s all I needed to hear.

[RightOnTheBorder]

Looks assaulting Jews doesn’t go over as well in Judea as it does in America.

[Romulus]

Not if they’re murdering thieves.

Check out how Wikipedia describes this town, which the Muslims now call "al-Mazra'a ash-Sharqiya" - but which was previously a town called Mezera, created by Crusaders, who built a church - which Muslims destroyed in the 16th Century:

"In the wake of the 1948 Arab–Israeli War, and after the 1949 Armistice Agreements, Al-Mazra'a ash-Sharqiya came under Jordanian rule."

Came under? After who "ruled" it before? Jews, who were expelled from their homes and had to flee for their lives, as Jordan annexed the West Bank until 1967.

and now...

"Since the Six-Day War in 1967, Al-Mazra'a ash-Sharqiya has been under Israeli occupation."

See how that works? Arabs conquer an area and they legitimately "rule." Jews re-conquer the same area, and now they are illegitimate "occupiers"

[Bigg Red]

Yeah. like that “Marland dad”..

[pissant]

sounds like a BS. ABC running with the Pallywood storyline, as usual

[jerod]

So he was protecting his Jordanian squatter family in the efforts to keep the land they stole from Israel... Well... Sh*t happens.

[HANG THE EXPENSE]

Yeah

[Pikachu_Dad]

A very traditional American name …

You have no idea what happens over there. Your use of the term “murder” proves that. Must be nice to be able to judge people from the comfort of your nice warm house where you don’t have to worry for your safety.

[KingofZion]

This does not bother me. One less campus protestor

[Vigilanteman]

Remind me of the name of that ditz “American” who got run over trying to stop a bulldozer.

[TigersEye]

And what was Saif’s cause?

"Musallet was trying to protect his family's land from Israeli settlers, ..."

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Rachel Pancake. I mean Corrie.

If this place is near Ramallah it would have been what was Samaria in ancient times, not Judaea--earlier probably territory of the tribe of Ephraim and part of the northern kingdom of Israel after the death of Solomon. Probably mostly Christian in the period immediately before the Arab conquest in the 7th century (since the Samaritans and Jews in the Holy Land did not fare very well under Byzantine rule).

NPR had something about this incident a few days ago but very few details other than the guy's name and that he was born in Florida. (I don't listen to NPR but an item popped up on my phone.)
