Israel wants to turn Jenin into another Gaza, siege by siege
Israel wants to turn Jenin into another Gaza, siege by siege
To Palestinians, Gaza is a symbol of resistance. To Israel, Gaza is a template to pummel and isolate that resistance.

On June 19, Israeli combat helicopters fired missiles into the camp, ostensibly as part of an arrest operation that ended up killing five Palestinians, including a 15-year-old girl named Sadeel Naghniyeh.
Then in early July, in the worst attack on the West Bank since 2002, the Israeli armed forces terrorised the inhabitants of Jenin for two days and killed at least 12 people, including children. The massive aerial and ground assault involved helicopter gunships, missiles, drones, armoured vehicles, bulldozers and more than 1,000 Israeli soldiers.
That is what happens, it seems, when Palestinians keep rebuilding – and keep existing. Indeed, Al Jazeera quoted 56-year-old camp resident Ahmed Abu Hweileh on the takeaway from the bloody escapade: “The message to the world and the occupation is that this camp will keep on going. They tried to destroy it and it came back up.”
Israel’s recent comportment in Jenin – and particularly the sudden use of air strikes in the West Bank for the first time in years – has invited comparisons to the Israeli modus operandi in the Gaza Strip, another location that has come to symbolise Palestinian resistance.
You're viewing a single thread.
- this was in response to terrorist attacks that originated from Jenin
- no innocents have been killed, only wounded
- (not from this article) about half a ton of gun powder and explosives were confiscated
Terrorism is the only possible way to deal with a violent oppressor. If you were on their side you’d be calling them guerrilla warriors. Remember in what kind of glowing coverage the US media used to talk about mujahideen?

Lmao the fact that you think the terrorists are victims shows your utter disregard for the actual facts.
Not what I’m saying, fam. My point is that if you are the far less powerful side in an armed conflict your only real strategy is terrorism/guerrilla warfare. This is also the case in violent oppressions.
However, that doesn’t even slightly imply anything about how often terrorism is justified or about if terrorists are “the good guys”.
I'll let you in on a tiny secret: if the plastinians weren't violent they would've already have a county (shhh)
Riiiiiight... and if Jewish people would just have stopped being Jewish the nazis would have given them a cozy homeland in Bavaria, right?
Is this sarcasm? You're saying if they stopped fighting back against invaders who want to take their land they...would have land? If only they'd give up their land, they'd have land? Do I have that right? I hope I'm just misreading this.
How is Israel in the wrong when it has been Palestine refusing solutions and starting wars at every turn?
LPT: if the truth isn’t on your side, just boldly lie.
The strategy of every pro-hama troll on here today it seems
wow, this leaves a bad taste
Antisemitic terrorists tend to do that
Innocents were only wounded, good work everyone!
So it's only a War No-No, then?
no innocents have been killed, only wounded
Evil naZi propaganda
