There was no October 7 in the West Bank. Yet, the Zionist fascist militia and its foreign terrorist settlers are committing untold barbarity against innocent Palestinian villagers there. October 7, despite its own barbarity against innocent Israeli civilians, is only a pretext used by Zionist terrorists for their long-standing ethnic cleansing of Palestine. Absolutely nothing can, morally and legally, justify the tragedy unfolding in Palestine.
Ever since the Balfour Declaration in 1917, the Zionists set out to replace the indigenous Palestinian population (then some 600,000 strong) with a foreign horde of armed racist fundamentalist East European Jewish invading settlers. Before 1917, there were a couple of thousand Jews in Palestine, essentially visiting Jewish pilgrims, not residents. The English crooks, who were granted temporary custody of Palestine (by virtue of an authorization by the League of Nations) cheated and lied their way into selling Palestine to wealthy Jewish bankers who dreamed of their own "me-too" colony somewhere where they can rape, steal, pilfer and kill. And that is exactly what the history of Palestine for the past 100 years has been.
Israel is no Jewish "homeland". For one thing, despite the horrendous 100-year-long culling of the indigenous Palestinian population by foreign Zionist settlers, the land of Palestine-Israel remains 50% Jewish and 50% Palestinian. And the Jewish 50% are trying by sordid criminal means to keep culling the Palestinian population in order to create the oxymoronic "Democracy-for-Jews-only".
There are many more millions of Jews who live safe lives around the world in almost every country and who do not accquiesce to the rape of Palestine. If they did, they'd all be moving to settle there. But they don't, for the most part because they don't acccept the barbarity of the colonial rape of Palestine, and they understand that Israel is no more than a western colonial beachhead on the eastern mediterranean whose genesis and raison d'etre were, at the end of World War I and the discovery of oil in the Arabian peninsula, to serve as a militia to protect western access to the oil fields. Do you really believe that the ongoing war against Iran is about terrorism and Islamism? It's not. It's about oil and gas.
The West is on friendly terms with the radical Islamist regimes in Saudi Arabia and the Gulf States, who are fundamentally anti-western and anti-Christian. All the mosques and madrassas built since the late 1970s in Europe and the Americas and everywhere in between were funded by the Wahhabi regime in Saudi Arabia and its radical Sunni vassals in the Gulf (Emirates, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain...). If there has been any threat to the West from Islamists, it has come for the most part from these fundamentalist Sunni Muslims who are the West's best friends only because they have not cut out the oil supply. The West is like a prostitute: It sleeps with its enemy as long as the latter pumps oil.
When the Arabs Islamist dictatorships did cut off the oil supply in 1973, the West rushed to their feet and begged them. In exchange for resuming pumping oil, the West allowed them to dispatch their preachers and radical terrorists to settle in Europe and the West. These in turn have been responsible for most terrorist attacks in the West and for the massive Muslim migrations into Europe and the Americas, and for creating and funding the radical Islamist terror organizations we have seen unfolding over the past several decades, from the Saudi Bin Laden's Al-Qaeda (responsible for the 9-11 attacks) to the Islamic State (ISIS), the Caliphate and their subsidiaries across Asia and Africa.
There are many more Muslims around the world than in the Arabian Guld region - Indonesia, Malaysia, Pakistan.... - They lead mostly peaceful lives and don't have "terrorists" against whom the West pretends to fight. Why? Because they don't have oil. The Near East has been in a state of war since World War I simply because of the oil fields, and Israel is the product of that policy of controlling the oil.

Israeli police attack journalists in Jerusalem, fracturing wrist of CNN producer

Israeli police attacked a group of journalists outside the Old City of Jerusalem on Tuesday evening, including a CNN producer who suffered a fractured wrist in the violent incident.
Police officers also damaged photographic equipment and confiscated memory cards from journalists who were outside the Lion’s Gate of the Old City covering Ramadan prayers.
On Tuesday, Muslim worshippers, barred from praying at the Al-Aqsa mosque because of wartime restrictions, gathered outside the walls of the Old City to perform the Tarawih prayers of Ramadan. But police prevented them from praying and pushed them away. The worshippers relocated to a street inside the nearby Wadi Al Joz neighborhood.
Police then relocated the worshippers one more time to a spot near the Old City walls when, moments later, officers threw stun grenades at the group. Two journalists were detained at the scene as officers assaulted them and damaged their equipment. Several other journalists at the scene who were documenting the unfolding incident, including CNN’s senior producer Abeer Salman, attempted to intervene but were pushed away.
After the two journalists were released, Salman and other journalists went to check on their colleagues. Police ordered the journalists back. Footage shows the group acquiescing to the police instructions when an officer in plain clothes – possibly indicating a special police unit – grabbed Salman’s hand, twisting it and causing a fracture in the wrist.

In a police statement issued to Israeli reporters on Tuesday and shared with CNN, the police accused journalists at the scene of refusing to follow orders, claiming they were “part of the disturbances.” The police statement went on to claim that “only after they were detained by police did they identify themselves as journalists and were subsequently released.”
The Union of Journalists in Israel ripped the police statement as “factually incorrect.” The union called for the police commissioner to immediately suspend the officers involved and launch an internal investigation.
“Police officers attacked several journalists without provocation, including foreign press,” the group said. “The officers damaged professional equipment, confiscated memory cards documenting their illicit actions, and inflicted a bone fracture on a CNN producer.”
Nir Gontarz, a member of the union who deals with violence against journalists, said police intentionally targeted the journalists, fully aware they were at the scene.
“Sometimes journalists are accidentally hit, including by police officers, while doing their job. In this incident, it was not a mistake. The police marked the journalists as targets, and attacked them,” Gontarz said. “It wasn’t a by product, it wasn’t coincidental, it was an intentional attack on journalists.”
The Foreign Press Association (FPA) also condemned the “unprovoked assault” on journalists. “The FPA calls on the Israel Police to immediately take action against the officers involved in this unprovoked assault and to act in the future to safeguard press freedoms, rather than trample upon them,” the organization said. (CNN Jerusalem Correspondent Jeremy Diamond is a board member of the FPA.)
“None of this is acceptable,” the FPA said.
CNN has sought comment about the incident from police but has not received a response.
Following the attack on journalists, CNN issued the following statement: “On Tuesday evening, a CNN producer was among a group of journalists covering Muslim worshippers praying outside the Old City of Jerusalem during Ramadan. Police officers at the scene violently dispersed the crowd, which included many journalists. During this incident, an officer grabbed our producer causing a fractured wrist that required hospital treatment. We demand an explanation and accountability for this unprovoked assault and are pursuing this matter with the relevant authorities. As journalists, we abide by Home Front Command regulations during wartime, but those regulations do not under any circumstances permit officers to assault journalists.”
