The army attack Bil'in non-violent protest: six injured, one kidnapped
Friday March 14, 2008 15:01
Dozens of residents of Bil'in, a village near Ramallah, took to the streets on Friday in their weekly demonstration protesting against the illegal confiscation of village land through Israel's continued expansion of the wall.
The residents were joined by many international and Israeli peace activists. Israeli troops manning the wall and the gate in the wall that cuts off the villagers from their lands showered the protesters with tear gas and rubber coated steal bullets as soon as the protesters arrived at a military blockade nearby.

In addition, when the protestors arrived back to the village, Israeli troops attacked them at the entrance of the village with rifle butts and batons. Eyewitnesses told IMEMC that soldiers also used sprayed the eyes of the peace protesters with pepper spray.

In total, six people were injured, among them a freelance European journalist known as Tom.

The other five were known as Iran, an Israeli activist who was shot in the leg by Israeli troops; Scern, from Israel, shot in the hand with a rubber-coated steal bullet; Cope, also from Israel, was attacked with pepper spray; Aiad Burnat was beaten up by the soldiers; in addition to Jake from the USA, who was beaten up and kidnapped by the army.

  • Typical Israeli courage. They succeed in beating up unarmed protesters, and they are at it five against one. Reminds me of how the Nazi's treated opposition.

    Could it be that the IDF is using training methods developed by the SS??.

    Such overwhelming superiority breeds killing instincts, like the Nazi SS. Since there is so much support for these tactics in Israel, I conclude that we have a new Nazi regime being in place. Funny that it is the victims of the former.

  • lol JEWS RULE!!!

  • @MrTJMishRat this is getting tiresome. look at iran. they are muslim. does that mean they must follow every single teaching and values of the qu'ran? look at saudi arabia. they are muslims, do they follow every single teaching and value of the quran? but i thought if a country is dominant in one religion, that religion must be followed to a tee by the government. dumbass, religion doesnt influence government decisions.

  • @Ideazonqa

    first of all when did i say that all jews love israel - please read properly

    second, i didn't just hear it and believed it straight away - it's stupid to assume i did

    and third, israel was based on the jewish religion, a country for jews, in the land where jews are meant to live and for fucks sake the jewish symbol dominates the israeli flag - i mean do you even think?

    it's like putting the christian cross all over a flag and then say it's not a christian state

  • @MrTJMishRat HA, you are the ignorant one. to assume all jews love israel is idiotic. thats like saying all christians love USA. why would i expect you to like israel if you were a jew? please tell me. last time i checked, israel wasnt run by rabbis so what does it matter if they go agaisnt jewish morals and values? ha, you are extreamly naive. israel is a un experiment? ALRIGHT THEN. your the kind of person who hears something different and immediatley beleives it. also know as STUPID.

  • @MrTJMishRat i have yet to come across one video of IDF troops aiming guns at protesters and mowing them down and then seeing the protesters dead on the ground.if u have a video ud like to share,by all means do so.you are confused with blanks and actual bullets.lol,when was the last time UK or russian police were labeled"murderers"becuase they broke up a protest? tell me. show me where IDF are shooting people that are simply stadning there. i want to see. you claim you know so show me some proof

  • @Ideazonqa and i am not even against jews - I AM A JEW! but real jews completely hate israel -> israel goes pretty much against all jewish moral values and believes - it is an experiment by the UN which brings more problems and more racism into the world

  • @Ideazonqa OF COURSE you won't hear that open in the media but if you would do some research on the internet you would find lots of videos and reports about that - and the other countries which break up peaceful demo's are also critizised! are you that stupid to say they don't?! look at russia as soon as one protest is broken up, the next day you see it all over the news - same in london (before the riots), same in germany.. i guess you in canada are as ignorant as usa and dont know the world!!

  • @MrTJMishRat really? is that so? ive heard nothing about the IDF mowing down protesters in israel, have you? either way, it doesnt matter whose protesting, the IDF and police's job is too protect israel which is what there doin. why is it ok for any other country in the world to break up protests, but for israel, its a crime? explain that? you are lying when you say the idf shoots the protesters. sure it may come to that in cases, but nothing goes undiserved.

  • @Ideazonqa this is not the only time that happens - even peace-ful protests from the israeli side were shot down by israeli troops!!

  • seriously i want to cut those soldiers faces! booting in to the guys face while he is pinned down by 6 others?

    I have Jewish background... BUT FUCK! do I hate Israel

  • hmm, a large group of arabs, people you are at war with, come marching up to your border, waving flags, probably yelling in arabic at a couple of israeli guards whose duty it is to defend the border. what do you do, fire some tear gas to make them go away or let them sit there, become more agitated and start throwin rocks and then real bullets have to be used. which one do you choose?
