Israeli settlers on Wednesday shot and killed 19-year-old Palestinian-American Nasrallah Abu Siyam as they attacked the Palestinian village of Mukhmas, east of Ramallah, in the occupied West Bank.
He and other residents had intervened to defend a Palestinian farmer under attack by a group of settlers, a witness told the Associated Press.
The Israeli army showed up and dispersed tear gas, sound grenades and live ammunition, the witness, Mukhmas resident Raed Abu Ali, told the AP.
Video circulating on social media appears to show the moment Abu Siyam was shot and his body being dragged away.

I was always curious how brave would be Israel soldiers if Palestinians would be able to fight back and not just be easy targets.
The IDF barely entered Gaza of fear of getting shot. That’s why almost all their military activity is from airplanes high up in the sky.
In previous wars with hezbolla they showed how cowardly they are in drirect combat with real militants. They were shot in the back while fleeing. They hide behind their sophisticated weapons and they only kill defenseless people.
They would get their shit pushed in if they had to engage in personal combat on equal footing. There’s a reason they lean on the U.S. so much for military hardware.
They are scared absolutely shitless of losing support from the U.S. government, which is why they put so much effort into propaganda and suppression of free speech in the U.S. and other nations (see what’s going on in UK and Australia with speech suppression).
Thanks, but I am perfectly aware of what shit happens in any country with too much jews in the government. At this point they are really acting as some kind of virus to the global society.
Uh…can we not. “Jews” and “Zionists” are not interchangeable words, despite Israel’s government trying to treat them as synonymous as a form of propaganda.
Please don’t fall into that trap, it’s not a road you want to head down.
OK.
And they’re still called “settlers” XD
Imagine me and a battalion of Greek soldiers marching into, say, Italy and bombing a town to shit, then establishing a perimeter, kill the locals, act like the area was promised to us by Zeus 3000 years ago and be called “Greek settlers” on mainstream media and nothing done to us.
The term settler was actually carefully chosen to make it sound like people were building settlements on empty land instead of ethnically cleansing an existing population to colonize it.
Fuck Israel.
Why would that be “significant” compared with the roughly 0.1 MILLION that Netanyahu’s “Israel” has killed of Palestinians??
The narcissism of politics…
un-fucking-believable…
