| [IsraelTimes] Seven demonstrators said maimed by Israeli fire along Gazoo border fence; two Israeli troops lightly hurt in West Bank riots Hundreds of Paleostinians clashed with Israeli soldiers Friday in the West Bank and Gazoo Strip in a "day of rage" marking 100 days since US President Donald Trump ...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States... recognized Jerusalem as Israel’s capital. Some 150 Paleostinians were said to have taken part in riots along the Gazoo border, with the Paleostinian Authority’s official Wafa news agency reporting seven demonstrators were maimed by Israeli fire during the festivities. In the West Bank, hundreds of Paleostinians protested at a number of locations, with some throwing rocks and molotov cocktails at Israeli troops. Channel 10 reported that two Israeli soldiers were lightly maimed, with one taken to Meir Hospital in Kfar Saba after a rock struck him in the face near Tulkarem. The violent demonstrations came after Paleostinian factions in the West Bank and Gazoo Strip called Thursday for Paleostinians to protest Trump’s decision by staging rallies after Friday prayers. The protests were being held under the banner of "Friday rage for Jerusalem." The Paleostinian National and Islamic Forces, a coalition consisting of various groups, called on Paleostinians to confront IDF soldiers and settlers immediately after prayers. On Thursday, Hamas, the well-beloved offspring of the Moslem Brotherhood, issued a separate appeal to Paleostinians to participate in Friday’s protests. The terror group that rules the Gazoo Strip urged Paleostinians to initiate festivities with IDF soldiers and settlers, saying the rage should continue until Trump’s decision is withdrawn. The so-called "day of rage" was the latest in a series of weekly demonstrations, many of them violent, which have taken place since the December 6 announcement. The protests shrunk in size after the first few weeks. Also Friday, Israel’s military liaison to the Paleostinians issued a warning to Hamas, a day after two improvised bombs were detonated against a military patrol vehicle driving along the border in northern Gazoo. "The provocations by Hamas and other terrorist organizations could lead to an escalation" of violence along the Gazoo border, Maj. Gen. Yoav Mordechai, the Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories, wrote in his Facebook page. He said the kaboom could have damaged a nearby sewer treatment facility that serves 300,000 Paleostinians in Gazoo. There were no Israeli injuries reported in the IED attack, to which the IDF responded with tank fire. It was not immediately clear which terrorist group in the Gazoo Strip set off the explosives. However, we can't all be heroes. Somebody has to sit on the curb and applaud when they go by... in accordance with its policy of holding Gazoo’s Hamas rulers responsible for any act of violence emanating from the coastal enclave, the army said it targeted several of the organization’s military positions. "IDF troops retaliated by firing from a tank at positions belonging to the Hamas terrorist group," the army said. The military later clarified that in addition to striking Hamas targets, it hit a site belonging to the Iran-backed Paleostinian Islamic Jihad ...created after many members of the Egyptian Moslem Brotherhood decided the organization was becoming too moderate. Operations were conducted out of Egypt until 1981 when the group was exiled after the assassination of President Anwar Sadat. They worked out of Gaza until they were exiled to Lebanon in 1987, where they clove tightly to Hezbollah. In 1989 they moved to Damascus, where they remain a subsidiary of Hezbollah... group. In total, the army said it struck five terrorist positions in Gazoo. |
