the dual national from New Jersey was shot and killed there

Two other teenage boys, one whose family told CBS News he is also a U.S. citizen, were shot but survived.

The soldiers opened fire towards the terrorists who were endangering civilians, eliminating one terrorist and hitting two additional terrorists.

the three teenage boys were shot

it appeared his son had been shot with two different guns, and that two bullets had entered his heart, two had struck his head, two had hit his shoulders, and then five others had hit his body.

This really looks like a neat article that would be a great example for an ESL textbook on the passive voice. In case it is written to be an example of serious journalism, then it is an atrocity against the concept of humanity itself.

What actually happened, based on the IDF's own characterisation of events is that three kids were apparently throwing stuff around in the vague direction of a road, so IDF soldiers murdered them by mowing them down with multiple automatic weapons.

Also neat to see that the IDF definition of terrorist is "kids throwing rocks" at best, "any Palestinian kids" more realistically.

The one thing Israel loves more than killing Palestinians is killing American Palestinians.

Yes, but when they're called Mohammed, they aren't real Americans.

I mean I'm sure it's a plus, but Israel still gets pretty damn hard at that idea of killing a boatload of American sailors. Doesn't matter if they're all Lily white with the names like Jim and Frank. They'll still murder them.

And nothing will change except the protesting at schools stopped and people are afraid.

We keep getting chances to stand with each other but instead we fail the test. It is so easy to distract people.

Apr 19th should see protest numbers surpass the kent state killing marches and civil rights march. I really hope everyone goes out and makes their voices known next weekend.
