Israeli troops killed a youth at a hospital and read out Jewish prayers at a mosque in the occupied West Bank city of Jenin during raids that Palestinian authorities said on Thursday killed 12 and that Israel said helped capture dozens of militants.
Alaa Al Sadi, who lives in the Jenin camp, said soldiers who came to his home searching for guns smashed his television before taking him blindfolded into detention at an army compound outside the city for about 14 hours, along with hundreds of other people.
The soldiers found no guns but demolished his family home and accused him of being a member of Hamas, telling him he should leave the West Bank and move to Lebanon or Syria, Al Sadi, 44, said in an interview. He denied any links to the Gaza-based Islamist militant group.
The Israeli military did not respond to a request for comment about Alaa Al Sadi’s account.
The majority of the people taken into detention earlier in the raid have since been released, the Palestinian Prisoner’s Club, an advocacy group, said in a statement. The Israeli army said 60 wanted suspects were transferred to security forces for further questioning.
They want to provoke all out war. And American evangelicals are salivating…
That absolutely is one of Hamas’s publicly stated goals. You’re right.
Seems Hamas and Israel ain’t so different after all.
Israel was on track for two state before Hamas got Bibi elected, edging out Perez by less than a percent in the wake of their suicide and bus bombings of civilians.
In return Bibi, who is a war criminal along with many others of Likud, helped them remove Arafat… and together they insured two state will never happen.
So Bibi and Hamas, yes, partners from the beginning. I’d love to see him and other members of Likud at the ICC.
Hamas and Israel, no, that’s just a racist antisemitism intentional conflating of Bibi and Israel…
Hamas got bibi elected? That’s a new level of blame shifting!
All you gotta do is study. The facts are there, even though they don’t fit your made-up story.
Israel is a terrorist state. There is no place for Zionism in this world. It will be end of everything as we know it.
At no point will any of these soldiers ask if they’re the baddies.
What is it in human nature that enables this total lack of awareness?
Americans voting for Genocide Joe aren’t asking themselves this question either.
I felt that way when I saw majority support in Gaza for Hamas in a recent poll in Gaza and overwhelming support for Hamas on the west Bank.
It’s a good question.
Oh! Is Hamas in the West Bank? I thought they were only indiscriminately steamrolling Gaza because Hamas was there!
Did you completely miss the part where they captured several dozen militants?
Every civilian pushed to the brink of trying to survive by defending themselves is considered a militant.
87% of west Bank residents support Hamas in a recent pole. Yeah, Hamas is there.
Americans showing support for Isreal does not make them IDF. Palestinians showing support for Hamas does not make them Hamas.

They also shot 3 of their own hostages who apparently had escaped Hamas by themselves and were trying to get back into Israel.
Ironically a ceasefire might’ve saved their lives.
Oh well, Fascist Theocracy needs blood.
They found no guns and several copies of The God Delusion in the mosque.
Desecrating a mosque: saying words
Not desecrating a mosque: hoarding weapons and using it as a rocket launch site
A rocket launch site in the West Bank? Yeah okay.
Exactly. The double standards that Hamas’s defenders apply are incredible.
