"Missile Strike by Israelis in Gaza Kills 3 Palestinians" by ISABEL KERSHNER
JERUSALEM — Three Palestinians were killed in an Israeli Army missile strike in the northern Gaza Strip on Saturday afternoon, Palestinian medical officials said. It was not immediately clear whether those killed were civilians or combatants.
Local witnesses said the three were sitting outdoors, drinking tea and smoking, in an area east of Beit Hanun, near the border with Israel, when they were killed. No militant group immediately claimed them as members. The three were all men in their 20s, according to a Palestinian medical official.
MURDER!!!
But an Israeli Army spokesman said ground forces had attacked a squad that was on its way to fire mortar shells at Israel. “According to our information, those who were hit were armed men,” the spokesman said.
I'm am so sick of NaZionist lies and the papers that spread 'em like fertilizer!!!
Militants from Gaza fired four mortar shells at Israel earlier Saturday, but caused no casualties or damage, the spokesman said.
The ISRAELI SPOKESMAN?
Grain of salt, please. Thank you.
On Saturday morning, advocates in Gaza, which is controlled by the militant Islamic group Hamas, tried to impose a half-day strike as part of a public campaign against Israel’s economic embargo of the strip. Store owners were asked to remain closed until 11 a.m., with limited success.
Militant Islamist is Zio-prop to get you going, readers.
Israel has restricted the movement of people and goods in and out of Gaza....
Also on Saturday, Mr. Abbas ordered an investigation into the death in custody of a Hamas preacher from the West Bank. The preacher, Majed Barghouti, 44, from the village of Kobar, died Friday in a Palestinian intelligence service prison in Ramallah run by pro-Fatah forces loyal to Mr. Abbas.
Yeah, TAKE A LOOK at what they did to him!!!
May God condemn Abass and his traitors to hell for this treatment of their Palestinian brothers!!
Mr. Barghouti was detained a week earlier. His family alleged that he had been tortured by his interrogators and said that he was healthy when he was arrested. The intelligence service suggested that Mr. Barghouti had died of heart problems.
Scores of Hamas members have been detained in the West Bank by pro-Abbas forces since the Hamas takeover of Gaza. Many have been released after handing over weapons.
Yeah, but that only gets a sentence here and there.
Meanwhile, the Times shovels the same old shit day after day!
In the West Bank early Saturday, Israeli forces arrested a senior militant of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, a militant leftist group, Israeli and Palestinian officials said. The militant, Majdi Mabrouk, was arrested at his home in the Ein Beit Ilma refugee camp in Nablus."
Yeah, Israel can just arrest people whenever they want.
That's the on-the-ground reality.
