Your breakdown of the story was moving... I just got a chance to listen to the video...
Thank you for bringing it a little bit closer to home and reminding us that these aren't just distant, far-off headlines... But real tragedies that are happening in real time that are affecting all of us... :(
Thank you so much for your support, and your actions by boycotting and speaking out. We need more like you. I'm so thankful that you are informed, and that you are using social media to inform others.
These people have been allowed to basically do whatever they want for way too long. The USA has bowed at the feet of Israel throughout my entire life. These people are simply brutal and barbaric yet play the victim so well. Well, that is the usually the case...the abused become abusers....hence the cycle of violence.
I wonder what the outcry would be from Israel if their children were shot dead in the street....or their schools blown up?
I bet they would be screaming to high heaven and every news station in the world would be carrying it.
Someone needs to develop a crypto for the Palestinians so they can defend themselves. Call it the humanitarian coin...available to anyone who is combating tyranny.
Quite a distorted view you have.
Israelis do get their children blown up - all you have to do is remember the multiple suicide bombings on buses and markets in Israel after the Oslo "peace accords" - killing hundreds of Israeli civilians.
....and the numerous stabbings, car rammings and terror attacks in the last few years.
Arab regimes have been murdering their own populations for decades, literally in the millions - whilst Israel has 20% of its population as Arab citizens, and pretty much the most prosperous and free Arab's in the Entire middle East (Arab-Israeli's that is)
As for the Palestinians - much of their calamity is their own fault, for corrupt leadership leading them on a path of destruction - the proof is simple, using terror tactics as a response to Oslo peace accords when full autonomy was given to the major population areas (area A)
Its really quite simple - in the 1980's under Israeli administration, 100,000 Gazan Palestinians had jobs in Israel and the rest in Egypt with 5% unemployment and a booming economy, largely integrated with Israel.
After Oslo and unilateral Israeli withdrawal (2003) - a terrorist Hamas entity takes over Gaza and leads to over 50% unemployment, dictatorship, terrorism, radical misuse of resources (using materials given by the UN to build houses for terrorist tunnels) and radicalized Islamist education opposed to Western values.
...and yes, the outcry from Palestinians does disproportionately cover news compared to other events in the world - consider HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS killed in Libya, Syria, Iraq and other Arab regimes, tens of thousands of Kurds killed by the Turks, hundreds of thousands killed by Burmese in Rohingya province in their civil wars.
In contrast, Palestinians are mostly responsible for any injuries or those killed (what does one expect attacking a border defense zone with petrol bombs ? )
You are right, every single network would be playing the footage if the tables were turned. The media is fully owned and an accomplice to the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians.
I'm trying to get a few of my friends to join here, so far one has! You could follow Palestinian Journalist @noreensadik.
There is no "ethnic cleansing" of Palestinians.
Pretty much a myth.
Yes, there was a war in 1948 - those Palestinians who ended up in Israeli territory became Israeli citizens, now "Arab-Israeli's" with citizenship.
Those who didn't and ended up conquered by the Jordanian Legion or Egyptian military, were annexed by the Jordanians & Egyptians.
Any Jews within territory conquered by the Jordanian Legion or Egyptians were forced to leave (yes, "Ethnic cleansed") eg those Jews living in the Old city of Jerusalem and what is the West Bank today eg the Jews of Hebron - massacred in 1929, 1933 and 1948 altogether fleeing)
Did the Jordanians make a Palestinian state ? No, they just left Palestinians to rot in refugee camps - built no infrastructure or anything to assist Palestinians. If anything, the Jordanians assisted in the massacre of Palestinians to protect the Monarchy rule.
Did Egyptians do anything to assist Palestinians - NO, again, left refugee camps in Gaza from 1948 - 1967 and did very little to build any infrastructure - just use the Palestinians as Paens to continue a conflict.
Israel did improve conditions in Gaza - quite radically in the 1980's with 100,000's of Palestinians employed within Israel leading to some 95% employment (5% unemployment) - and a booming economy attached to Israel (who do you think radically renovated and improved the hospital in Gaza - no it was not Egypt but Israel in the 1980's).
After Oslo and Israeli unilateral withdrawal, poor Palestinian decisions and self rule only lead to Hamas rule and a worse situation than even under Egyptian rule.
...and yes, not only were Palestinians refugees, but almost 1 million Jews fleeing persecution from Arab regimes becoming refugees in Israel (the Sephardi Jews) - thats more Jewish refugees than all the Palestinians in 1948, pretty much makes the story of Ethnic Cleansing a myth beyng a Myth. As for compensation - those Sephardi Jews lost assets in those Arab countries dwarfing any Palestinian losses by tens of billions of dollars, quite unfathomable sums, considering a large part of the middle class business were Jewish owned in places like Iraq, all confiscated by the Arab regimes (or in Iran some 95% of Jews forced to leave and likewise had their assets stolen).
Think of it like the partitioning of India and Pakistan. Some Arabs lost their homes in a war and ended up in Jordan, Lebanon, Egypt etc and Jews forced to leave numerous Arab countries and ending up in Israel - pretty much like a partitioning of the Ottoman Empires borders and populations after 1917.
Quite reasonable considering there was never a Palestinian country and the name "Palestine" was hardly even used pre-1917 British Mandate and the land was known as the Vilayet of Beirut - with quite different borders (as the name of the Vilayet suggests - extending into what is Lebanon today and Syria to the North East)
Thank you for standing up, and using your most powerful weapon, your VOICE! If more would bear witness to these crimes against humanity, things would have a chance of changing! #BDS Boycott Israel too.
I am a true Peace lover & i mean it. This is brutality they are doing in #Palestine in the name of politics. This is not politics indeed this is crime.
My Voice, My slogans and My prayers are always with Palestinianz. Yes, strongly agree boycott #Israel and #freepalestine. Freedom is their right!
Feeling so sad to hear that brutal act all time on innocent palestinians. This news hurt me. everyone should condemnd this act who murdered 17-year-old "MusabFirasTamimi.". Palestinians Still struggling for their freedom and paying a cost of innocence' blood.
Thank you for bringing out the awareness of this news! It's sad. Nobody should have been doing this to other ethnic groups just because they are different than you.
This is really sad. Why would any human in his or her right senses do things like this.
Human life is precious. Why is that so hard for some people to get. I pray this stops soon. I just keep wondering what his parents must be going through right now. May his soul rest in peace
Just when i think that they can't sink any lower they set new depths of depravity. It makes me hang my head in despair for the future of our entire race, how could we allow this to happen? And yet when I hear that passion and compassion in your voice it makes me realise that things are starting to change, whispers are turning to shouts and we are beginning to speak with one voice. When will it change? I don't know, but what I do know is that the tide is turning an people have had enough of this crap ... I know I have!! Thank you for continuing to speak your truth @lyndsaybowes
Ohh no! sorry i can't watch those picture and video. the title made my heart breaks.
Ohh my god ! why they are doing this. i am so sad and feeling very bad about it.
Thanks @lyndsaybowes for taking a stand. it must be stopped as soon as possible.
How long will these gruesome killings continue and why is the world suddenly silent? Why is this cruelty allowed to thrive in this age? Let the whole of humanity scream out, against this carnage going on in Palestine.
Hey @lyndsaybowes . Been sporadic with my Steemit usage the past months. So sad to see this video. :( Thanks for sharing otherwise I wouldn't have known about this. All the best.
yes this AIPAC is a wart in American politics and must be removed as why does any nation exterior to America have a right to bear political pressure on any contender for the postion of POTUS ?? Seems most strange to me and one can only wonder on how this situation even came into existance ??
The Wicked State of Israel is a disgusting one, covered in blood and murder ! Enough of this Evil wrong doing by people who should know better as they still like to remind us of how they suffered similar crimes at the hands of the Nazis ! Seems to me they learned nothing more than how to weild the sword too from the Nazis ! Great that you keep holding this important subject up to be seen by this community @lyndsaybowes!
to be honest, i did not play the video, cuz i knew it would break my heart and Knowing i can't do anything about it would frustrate me big time. When this gonna end? when their bloodthirst will be satisfied. I grew up seeing Palestinean children dying on their parent's laps, gathering of thousands of people carrying the coffins of their brothers, sisters, parents, children. My heart breaks and eyes fill up with tears. It never ends, when it's going to end? what's the solution?
One solution is to join and promote #BDS, the boycott of israel and their products and services. The other is to just keep speaking out and let others know the truth because they will never see it in the media.
Yes, this is news we hear almost every day of the death or arrest of a child
But luckily there are those who remember us and defend us just like you
,thank you so much for sharing it
guess they didnt had time to plant any knife, so they said he appeared to have a gun. pointed at them.
and they are not expecting us to believe he would do such suicidal act, to pull out the gun at multiple armored soldiers.
Thats just a straw to pull if we dont want to be called nazis, racists, jew haters and such. The easy way.
wait, what? whoa! Sorry for my reaction, the most I heard about Palestine is from international news saying that Trump is cutting off its annual aid to the country.
Have no idea that such vile horrendous things are happening in the country by IOF.
Snap. I'll read more about this. Thanks for sharing this eye opening info
That's so sad. He was quite innocent. What they get after killing innocent. Only terrorism, they want to control over the world but it can't such. They kill again and again innocent people. Palestine struggling so hard. Palestine should have army, navy, bsf to save country. And others countries should also cooperate Palestine. Because it can be anywhere anytime.
I hope they will find a solution, the world is such a mess right now and has always been! Did this happen in the west bank or in the Gaza? I hope it will not take too long before all the people accept each other finally and can live peacefully with each other!
the war is going on decades no one cares about it. Who gives them the power to do that, we all know but who is he to do this? we the people have to come forward to protect them.
Usually I go on a rant and I'm sure you expected one from me today.
Well it's a one word rant today babe......
TWUNTS! 😂😂
Yep, not much more can be said. #EndTheOccupation!!
Disgraceful...
The wickedness of men leaving such an evil social experiment unchallenged... More need to resist within and without Israel...
They are a threat to humanity, these maniacs running this colonial state...
Won't we learn from what America did to it's native population?
Because this piece of land was mentioned in the Ancient Texts, it's okay for war to be perpetuated for millenia?
I'll make sure that nothing I buy is Israel made (though in China, I don't there's many goods here coming straight from Israel)
It's tough looking at the face of a child who you know was just recently robbed of life... I can't imagine for his family..
Your breakdown of the story was moving... I just got a chance to listen to the video...
Thank you for bringing it a little bit closer to home and reminding us that these aren't just distant, far-off headlines... But real tragedies that are happening in real time that are affecting all of us... :(

Fucking barbarians.
I am sorry that is all it is.

Only media could not take proper step. all countries of have to take a proper step to save Palestinian.if need they have to force their power.

OMG! how painful this news is. I just can't imagen the pain of his parents this time. There were many who killed innocently.
Why we are killing such innocent faces. I strongly condemn this brutal act of those forces who are doing these brutal acts. #freepalestine
I am standing with every single human being who is victim to such cowardly forces who chose to kill such innocent kids. #shame
Thank you for standing up, and using your most powerful weapon, your VOICE! If more would bear witness to these crimes against humanity, things would have a chance of changing! #BDS Boycott Israel too.

Feeling so sad to hear that brutal act all time on innocent palestinians. This news hurt me. everyone should condemnd this act who murdered 17-year-old "Musab Firas Tamimi.". Palestinians Still struggling for their freedom and paying a cost of innocence' blood.
Thank you for bearing witness and testifying about this ethnic cleansing.
off course, i hope sinners would be hanged. hope UN take action for peace here.
The UN is a VERY corrupt institution.
you are absolutely right.the UN is controlled by USA
Thank you for bringing out the awareness of this news! It's sad. Nobody should have been doing this to other ethnic groups just because they are different than you.
This is really sad. Why would any human in his or her right senses do things like this.
Human life is precious. Why is that so hard for some people to get. I pray this stops soon. I just keep wondering what his parents must be going through right now. May his soul rest in peace

Thank you, I hope in our lifetimes we can see the true end of oppression.
Ohh no! sorry i can't watch those picture and video. the title made my heart breaks.
Ohh my god ! why they are doing this. i am so sad and feeling very bad about it.
Thanks @lyndsaybowes for taking a stand. it must be stopped as soon as possible.
How long will these gruesome killings continue and why is the world suddenly silent? Why is this cruelty allowed to thrive in this age? Let the whole of humanity scream out, against this carnage going on in Palestine.
Thank you for knowing the TRUTH Edith. Not enough do!
Hey @lyndsaybowes . Been sporadic with my Steemit usage the past months. So sad to see this video. :( Thanks for sharing otherwise I wouldn't have known about this. All the best.
All the best to you too Joseph, thank you for caring!
it must be stopped. Israel has continued their illegal tasks with the support of USA.they must be ruined one day.Almighty God will not be silent.
US is an accomplice to the ethnic cleansing. They are the biggest contributor of funds to the zionist regime.
yes this AIPAC is a wart in American politics and must be removed as why does any nation exterior to America have a right to bear political pressure on any contender for the postion of POTUS ?? Seems most strange to me and one can only wonder on how this situation even came into existance ??
america has destroyed the happiness of the world. Israel is cancer of the world. devil!!!!!!!!
Israel ,,,,,goes to hell.fucking devil.
Its a very bad news 😞 I wanna say fuck of
Israel!
Thank you for speaking out publicly, the world needs to be outraged.
that't not good, we all are against Israel to stop that
Anyone with a drop of empathy and humanity wants to stop the zionist regime.
i totally agree with you, Israel and USA have to punish..
om mani padme hum, may you be reborn in the light .
Thank you for your prayer.
politic is the biggest problem in the world...
and every politician thinking f**king bullshit
I agree.
thank you. :)
The Wicked State of Israel is a disgusting one, covered in blood and murder !

Seems to me they learned nothing more than how to weild the sword too from the Nazis ! Great that you keep holding this important subject up to be seen by this community @lyndsaybowes!
Thank you Gomeravibz. Hopefully more join us in speaking out against this brutal occupation here on steemit.
israel is just the worst, a modern day nazi state that will not be capitalized when I write it because it shouldn't even exist in the first place.
Thank you for continuing to speak out on this "taboo" topic. Did you see Trump is threatening to cut off aid to Palestine? Makes me sad beyond words.
Yes, as if they get much aid anyways, it's sickening!!!!
to be honest, i did not play the video, cuz i knew it would break my heart and Knowing i can't do anything about it would frustrate me big time. When this gonna end? when their bloodthirst will be satisfied. I grew up seeing Palestinean children dying on their parent's laps, gathering of thousands of people carrying the coffins of their brothers, sisters, parents, children. My heart breaks and eyes fill up with tears. It never ends, when it's going to end? what's the solution?
One solution is to join and promote #BDS, the boycott of israel and their products and services. The other is to just keep speaking out and let others know the truth because they will never see it in the media.
right, that's something we can do without breaking the peace
Nooooo! How can grown ass adults do this? How pathetic do you have to be to kill a teenage boy?! Arrrrrrrrrrrrrr...
Yes, this is news we hear almost every day of the death or arrest of a child
But luckily there are those who remember us and defend us just like you
,thank you so much for sharing it
I will never stop speaking out.
guess they didnt had time to plant any knife, so they said he appeared to have a gun. pointed at them.

Snap. I'll read more about this. Thanks for sharing this eye opening info
For 70 years the Palestinians have been killed and displaced by the zionist regime.
That's so sad. He was quite innocent. What they get after killing innocent. Only terrorism, they want to control over the world but it can't such. They kill again and again innocent people. Palestine struggling so hard. Palestine should have army, navy, bsf to save country. And others countries should also cooperate Palestine. Because it can be anywhere anytime.
Trump move to recognize Jerusalem as capital of Israel as this down sides, making peace process go down the drain and the violence to increase :(
Bad
really very sad...
thnx for sharing this news
Its really sad to hear someone die
But thanks for information
so sad news...
pray for him..
may peace be created there, so there will be no more bloodshed @lyndsaybowes
USA and Israel must suffer for this
So sorry for the bad world , Save the mind in our ways.
I hope they will find a solution, the world is such a mess right now and has always been! Did this happen in the west bank or in the Gaza? I hope it will not take too long before all the people accept each other finally and can live peacefully with each other!
good post @lyndsaybowes thankyou for shere news
