Israeli troops shoot and kill a Palestinian family of four, including two young children, after opening fire on their car in the town of Tammun https://t.co/fQC1xjSjls
After Israeli army executed two children and their mother and father from point-blank range while they were in their car in Tammun, West Bank,
Israeli army is towing their car away.
BREAKING:
Israel just executed Mohammad with a direct shot to the head.
He was only 5 years old.
He was killed along with his 6-year-old brother Othman and their parents in the occupied West Bank.
A whole innocent family erased.
Pro-Palestine leftists perform endless verbal gymnastics to avoid conflating Jewish people with the state of Israel, while Israel and its supporters conflate them constantly. Yet we're the ones who get blamed whenever there's a terror attack on a Jewish institution by someone enraged by Israel's actions.
Zionists are the ones doing everything they can to make sure people see the state of Israel as synonymous with Jews and Judaism. That is what they are doing every time they claim a criticism of Israel's actions is hate speech against Jews. They are claiming that the nation and its government are one and the same as the entirety of the Jewish faith and its adherents.
Pro-Palestine leftists have been doing the exact opposite. We go to great pains to make sure all our arguments are carefully worded to avoid being interpreted as an attack on the Jewish faith, making it clear that our grievance is with the state of Israel and the political ideology of Zionism which supports that state's abusive nature. And then Israel apologists come in and smear those meticulously crafted arguments as a hateful attack on all Jews everywhere.
Zionists are therefore responsible for the growing perception that our Jewish neighbors and countrymen are culpable for the abuses of the Israeli government. When more attacks on Jewish institutions occur (and they will), it is Israel and its supporters who will hold the blame for this, not the pro-Palestine left.
I am not saying attacks on Jewish institutions should happen. I am not saying it will be good when they do happen. I'm saying it will happen, and when it happens it will be a terrible thing. And it will be the fault of Israel and its supporters.
We've been running around like crazy trying to stop this, falling all over ourselves to thwart the Zionist efforts to conflate Jews with Israel, but our voices aren't strong enough. We're not the ones getting loudly amplified by every mass media outlet, they are.
So when we lose the narrative war on this front and the next extremist attack occurs, it won't be our fault. It will be theirs. It will be the fault of Israel and its apologists. We fought them as hard as we could to prevent this, but they won. And the consequences of this will therefore rest squarely on their shoulders.

🚨BREAKING—
🚨In Tamoun moments ago, special forces from the Israeli army opened fire at a family in the car—- 4 killed, the mother the father, & 2 children.
-Ali Bani Odeh, 37
-Waad Bani Odeh, 35
-Mohammad Bani Odeh, 5
-Othman Bani Odeh, 6
🚨CONTEXT—
⚫️ As Israel shows no intention to cease attacks on Lebanon and Iran, it is also escalating and intensifying violence on the ground in the West Bank.
⚫️ At least 13 Palestinians have been killed in the last weeks in the West Bank by armed Israelis (this includes the military and Israeli settlers armed with military grade weapons)
⚫️ This is a massacre of a family, and comes less than 24 hours after settlers killed a young man in Qusra Nablus.
⚫️ The violence in Nablus is escalating as settlers expand settlements and outposts such as Har Ebal as we saw earlier this week.
⚫️ For a while now, the southern part of Nablus is effectively closed off from the rest of Nablus, and due to checkpoints, army raids, and settler violence, Palestinian families are being cut off from access to hospital and other resources.
⚫️ This massacre of a family is only the latest incident in a growing trend of intensifying violence in the West Bank amid global attention focused on war with Iran. (Meaning— Israel is also using regional war to facilitate de facto takeover and depopulation of the West Bank)
Iran’s handling of the US and Israel has been the most impressive I’ve ever seen any country perform strategically or militarily. The US military has a budget of more than 100x Iran’s, and has been the global hegemon for decades while Iran was heavily sanctioned. Legendary, truly
Israeli settlers brutally beat a father, then murdered his son.
On the left is Motasem Odeh. On the right is his son, Ameer Odeh, who was murdered by Israeli settlers in the Village of Qusra.
Israeli settler terrorism in the West Bank has reached unprecedented levels.
Saw the premier now
The hardest thing you'll ever see but must
The actual recordings of Hind, just 6 years old
They murdered her entire family, left her for hours
When the ambulance arrived they executed her & the medics
FUCK ISRAEL FOREVER
TAKE EVERY ACTION AGAINST THEM
I have no words anymore.
States. Must. Intervene.
This isn’t genius, it’s leadership.
1. Impose an arms embargo and cut trade.
2. Break the blockade with your humanitarian navies.
3. Send a protective presence to Palestine to ensure Israel dismantles its occupation NOW.
