Israel-Palestine-Jordan
Intifada called for as over 100 Palestinians injured in clashes in the West Bank, Gaza and Jerusalem
2017-12-08
The view from the Iran-oriented part of the Arab world.
[ALMASDARNEWS] More than 100 Paleostinians have been maimed in festivities that have erupted throughout various locations within the West Bank, Gazoo and Jerusalem.

400,000 plus protestors
...an impressive number. But how many orders of magnitude is that from reality?
filled the streets in Gazoo today, as Hamas, a contraction of the Arabic words for "frothing at the mouth", reportedly fired two rockets at Israeli settlements. Israel, soon after Hamas attacked ‐ to no avail, the rockets hitting open fields ‐ bombed targets in the North-East of Gazoo. The night prior to the Hamas rocket fire, Israel had fired sound bombs and intimidating flares, filling the skies in Gazoo.

In the West Bank, large protests took place in Ramallah, Bethlehem, Nablus, Jenin and in various other villages/refugee camps.

Israeli occupation forces violently met the protestors using internationally banned tear gas, live ammunition, sound grenades, rubber coated steel bullets, as well as other life threatening military equipment.

Hamas have now called for a day of rage of the 8th of December, encouraging the youth of Paleostine to rise up against their oppressors "through any means necessary".

#10  It's an historical reference.

Yeah. Kids nowadays...
Should probably be on that list of Common Rantburg Expressions.

Many many moons ago, during one of the many intifadas, I totaled up the cumulative body count on each side. Don't remember the exact numbers, but the ratio was something like 10-15 to 1 against the Paleos, which didn't seem like a cost-effective way to exterminate the Juices.

"Kashmiri Shitte Muslims burnt an effigy of Donald Trump as they marched through the streets of Srinagar this morning"

#6  Does the US government still provide any money to the Paleos?
If so cut it off for good.

#2  Wow, Grom. Reading your statement made me laugh as I don't think it was intentional!

Maybe a slight rephrasing is needed 'eh?
