Gaza violence: Israel defends actions as 55 Palestinians killed

Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu has said his military was acting in self defence during violence on the Gaza border that left dozens of Palestinians dead.

Some 55 were killed and 2,700 wounded by Israeli troops, Palestinian officials said, on the deadliest day of violence since the 2014 Gaza war.

The Palestinian Authority's leader condemned a "massacre". The UN spoke of "outrageous human rights violations".

The violence came as the US opened a controversial embassy in Jerusalem.

The move of the US embassy from Tel Aviv has incensed Palestinians, who claim eastern Jerusalem as the capital of a future Palestinian state.

They see the US move as backing Israeli control over the whole of the city, which Israel regards as its indivisible capital.

Palestinians were demonstrating on Monday as they have been for six weeks as part of a protest, orchestrated by Gaza's Islamist rulers Hamas, called the "Great March of Return".

However, Monday's protests - and more planned for Tuesday - are the culmination, as they mark the anniversary of Israel's creation in 1948 and what Palestinian's term the Nakba or Catastrophe, referring to the hundreds of thousands of their people who subsequently fled their homes or were displaced in the war that followed.

Monday also coincided with the dedication ceremony for the US embassy.

Israel said some 40,000 Palestinians had taken part in "violent riots" at 13 locations along the Gaza Strip security fence.

Palestinians hurled stones and incendiary devices, while the Israeli military used tear gas and live fire from snipers.

Mr Netanyahu defended his military, saying: "Every country has an obligation to defend its borders.

"The Hamas terrorist organisation declares its intention to destroy Israel and sends thousands to breach the border fence in order to achieve this goal. We will continue to act with determination to protect our sovereignty and our citizens."

An Israel Defense Forces (IDF) spokesman said soldiers fired on those engaged in "terrorist activity and not on demonstrators, who were dispersed by usual means such as tear gas and according to the rules of engagement".

Announcing three days of mourning, Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas said: "Today once again, the massacres against our people continue."

He also condemned the US embassy move, saying: "We hear that they opened an embassy today. It is a settlement, not an embassy. A US settlement in East Jerusalem."

The violence in Gaza drew conflicting reactions in the international community:

  • White House spokesman Raj Shah said: "The responsibility for these tragic deaths rests squarely with Hamas... Hamas is intentionally and cynically provoking this response"
  • EU foreign policy chief Federica Mogherini and the UK called for restraint
  • Germany said Israel had the right to defend itself but should do so proportionately. France condemned the violence
  • Turkey said the US shared responsibility with Israel for a "vile massacre" and that it was recalling its ambassadors from both the US and Israel
  • One of the strongest statements came from UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Zeid Ra'ad al-Hussein, who condemned the "shocking killing of dozens, injury of hundreds by Israeli live fire"
  • South Africa also recalled its ambassador to Israel, condemning "the indiscriminate and grave manner of the latest Israeli attack"

So far the body count is in excess of 50, with thousands more getting fucked up!

So, thoughts?
 
The Gaza Strip is pretty much the North Korea of the Middle East. People there are raised from birth with the primary life goal of having a burning hate of Jews, invading Israel, killing Jews and Westerners with actually living a life being secondary to that. It's why Israel has to ban construction materials from entering Gaza at times, because instead of trying to improve Gaza, Hamas uses it to build fortifications to launch rockets from and means to build tunnels either into Egypt to smuggle arms and militants or into Israel to launch terror raids and kidnappings. Palestinians in The West Bank aren't much better either, but some there at least have some sense of self preservation and do other things outside of trying to attack Israel 24/7 and flinging themselves at border guards.

Another thing to note is that it's not only the Israeli border that's walled off to Palestinian territory but Jordan and Egypt borders as well because Palestinians have terrorized those countries in the past as well.
 
If I lived in Palestine I would just fucking move. Lol at posters in this thread defending Israel.

edit: This is Israel and American flexing their muscles to prove they can do as they damn well please and the Arab World cant do shit.

It's a giant tantrum. They're not even putting it in disputed territory. Even if there were a two state settlement and even if the borders of Jerusalem were changed, it's in a part of West Jerusalem they're not even claiming and that has belonged to Israel since 1948. One could argue the act is needlessly provocative but Israel is maybe the only country in the world not allowed to decide where its own capital is.

These assholes all ganged up to attempt to wipe Israel off the face of the map in 1967 and the entire Arab world got its asses handed to them. Well, guess what? Starting a war of aggression, then losing it like a bunch of fucking losers, has consequences.



Not just that, but sending them there with nothing but bolt cutters and other implements of destruction trying to destroy the border fence. Most of the action here was nonlethal, rubber bullets and tear gas and the like, but they use live ammunition when you're literally trying to invade the country.

You can bet if a bunch of Mexicans charged a border checkpoint with bolt cutters and tire irons trying to invade America, they'd get shot, too.
Wouldn't be surprised if they pull some reconquista shit in another generation or so the brazero's breed like rats and have a rather limited grasp of history and seem to forget when the Marines marched through Mexico City and the treaty of Guadalupe was signed. I think maybe we should remember the famous words of Brennus which were "vae victis".
 
The funny thing is that now that the Arab leaders are literally shitting their pants at the thought of a Nuclear Iran they stopped their pro Palestinian rhetoric. The Palestinians are becoming increasingly irrelevant now that it's becoming ever more apparent they just want everything and aren't willing to even consider a two state solution
 
I guess I'm in the minority for thinking this was unnecessary shit-stirring.

Its more likely that most people have tuned out of this shit. Its not even really a "news" story, the Palestine/Israel slapfight has been going on forever and its also one of the most convoluted and autistic stories possible.
 
If Palestine was wiped off the map tomorrow, Israelis would breath a sigh of relief, and then move on with their lives.

If Israel was wiped off the map tomorrow, Palestinians would shout their blood-curdling screams, and dedicate their lives to exterminating the next civilized society they ran up against.

If you're going to pick sides you should at least be open in admitting that both sides are equally as autistic:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israel–Syria_relations
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iran–Israel_proxy_conflict
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Egypt–Israel_relations

Neither of them would be happy if the other one got knocked out. They live and breath to continue slapfighting forever.

If I hadda pick which one would would take over Canada, I know which austist I'd pick.

It's easy to see them as equally as autistic when they're on the other side or the world, but if they were right over the border, I'd bet you'd spot the differences right quick.

I think the reason that Turkey is making such a big fuss over all this is to hide their little adventures they are going on in Syria and Iraq.

Ehh, I may be biased as hell, but usually Israel gets into shit because the Arabs try to erase them from existence. While it was probably retarded to start a state there in the first place, it's already there and way better than the shitty Arab countries around it.

Yes and no. Erdogan has always been openly anti Israel, and even before Syria and Iraq he threw a bitchfit over the Gaza blockade in 2010. Islamist parties can never accept the loss of Muslim lands to infidels, and this is no exception.

Good, this should send the kebab into a frenzy. :autism: Israel just casted taunt! :autism:

Eastern Europe should do the same, just so that we can push the Eu's nose in it.

They're equally as autistic, but Israel doesn't send children out to fight armed soldiers with rocks and bolt cutters and then pretend the inevitable deaths and injuries were completely unprovoked.

Careful fella. Criticism of the goyim appears to be frowned upon in this thread. Just take a gander at your revenge ratings

I still can't get over the kids thing.

Where's the public outcry? Where's the outrage? Where's anything?

If Spanish people brought kids to the running of the bulls in Pamplona, and a kid got squashed, the world press would be losing their fucking minds about it. Yet the Palestinians bring kids to an active battle zone knowing goddamned well bullets are going to be whizzing around, and nothing? Crickets?
