Israeli settlers kill Palestinian, injure more than 100, burn 30 houses and 15 vehicles near Nablus​

NABLUS, Monday, February 27th, 2023 (WAFA) – Israeli extremist settlers last night committed about 300 violations against Palestinians and their properties in towns of Huwara, Burin, Asira al-Qabaliyya,
south of the occupied West Bank city of Nablus, Ghassan Daghlas, who monitors settlement activities in the northern West Bank, said on Monday.
Daghlas told WAFA that Israeli settlers yesterday launched a massive attack against Palestinians, burning houses, assaulting citizens, which resulted in the killing of a Palestinian man identified as Sameh Aqtash, 37,
and injuring more than 100 others.
He added that the settlers targeted 30 houses, stoning some and burning down others in Huwara. The fanatic settlers also burned 15 vehicles.
Daghlas noted that the settlers burned a barn, three vehicles and attempted to set fire to a house in Burin, while in Asira al-Qabaliyya, the settlers burned a house and a water tank and caused damages to vehicles in Odala town.

Israeli settlers burn Palestinian homes and cars after two Israelis killed by gunman​

Fatal shooting and resultant rampage raise doubts over Jordanian declaration on Israeli and Palestinian pledge to calm year-long wave of violence​

Scores of Israeli settlers have gone on a violent rampage in the northern West Bank, setting dozens of cars and homes on fire after two settlers were killed by a Palestinian gunman.
Palestinian medics said one man was killed and four others were badly wounded in what appeared to be the worst outburst of violence perpetrated by settlers in decades.
The deadly shooting, followed by the late-night rampage, immediately raised doubts about Jordan’s declaration that Israeli and Palestinian officials had pledged to calm a year-long wave of violence.
Palestinian media said some 30 homes and cars were torched. Photos and video on social media showed large fires burning throughout the town of Hawara – scene of the deadly shooting earlier in the day –
and lighting up the sky.

In one video, crowds of Jewish settlers could be heard reciting the Jewish prayer for the dead as they stared at a burning building.
Earlier, a prominent Israeli cabinet minister and settler leader had called for Israel to strike “without mercy”.
Late on Sunday, the Palestinian Health Ministry said a 37-year-old man was shot and killed by Israeli fire.
The Palestinian Red Crescent medical service said two other people were shot and wounded, a third person was stabbed and a fourth was beaten with an iron bar.
Some 95 others were being treated for tear gas inhalation.

Palestinian president Mahmoud Abbas condemned what he called “the terrorist acts carried out by settlers under the protection of the occupation forces tonight”.
“We hold the Israeli government fully responsible,” he added.

As videos of the violence appeared on evening news shows, prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu appealed for calm and urged against vigilante violence. “I ask that when blood is boiling and the spirit is hot,
don’t take the law into your hands,” Mr Netanyahu said in a video statement.
The Israeli military said its chief of staff, Herzl Halevi, was rushing to the scene and that forces were trying to restore order.
Israel’s army radio station, citing an anonymous official, said 15 houses and 25 cars had been torched, and that the army had evacuated nine Palestinian families from their burning homes.

The rampage occurred shortly after the Jordanian government, which hosted Sunday’s talks at the Red Sea resort of Aqaba, said the sides had agreed to take steps to de-escalate tensions and would meet again next month
ahead of the Muslim holy month of Ramadan.

It's easy to find anti-semantic views in the media. The things is, God promised Canaan ( modern day Israel ) to Jacob's descendants, forever.
That's why it's called "The promised land", all through the Bible.

Gen 28:15; "Behold, I am with you and will keep you wherever you go, and will bring you back to this land; for I will not leave you until I have done what I have promised you."
Gen 50:24; Joseph said to his brothers, "I am about to die, but God will surely take care of you and bring you up from this land to the land which He promised on oath to Abraham, to Isaac and to Jacob."
Exod 12:25; "When you enter the land which the LORD will give you, as He has promised, you shall observe this rite.
Numb 14:16; 'Because the LORD could not bring this people into the land which He promised them by oath, therefore He slaughtered them in the wilderness.'
Deut 6:3; "O Israel, you should listen and be careful to do it, that it may be well with you and that you may multiply greatly, just as the LORD, the God of your fathers, has promised you, in a land flowing with milk and honey.
Deut 9:28; 'Otherwise the land from which You brought us may say, "Because the LORD was not able to bring them into the land which He had promised them and because He hated them He has brought them out to slay them in the wilderness."
Deut 19:8; "If the LORD your God enlarges your territory, just as He has sworn to your fathers, and gives you all the land which He promised to give your fathers—
Deut 27:3; and write on them all the words of this law, when you cross over, so that you may enter the land which the LORD your God gives you, a land flowing with milk and honey, as the LORD, the God of your fathers, promised you.
Josh 23:5; "The LORD your God, He will thrust them out from before you and drive them from before you; and you will possess their land, just as the LORD your God promised you.

It was prophesied that Israel would be scattered, and then become a nation again. This happened in 1948. The Palestinians and Muslims are still fighting it.
Ezek 33:10-33; Ezek 36:22-38;

If it was up them, there would be no Israel. Where do you propose that the Jews live?

If you look at maps like this one...


You will see that the predominantly Muslim countries all surround Israel. Why is that. Israel is almost right in the dead center of these maps.
The Muslims have millions of square miles of territory that they already own, but that isn't enough. They want that one little area in the middle.

But one day, Jesus will rule from Jerusalem ( mount Zion ).

And who is being anti-Semitic ?/
To be anti-Semitic is to be hateful of Jews and Arabs (as they are half-brothers with both being descendants of Abraham).
This conflict is the continuation of the division between the children of Isaac and Ismael.

By the way the YouTube video I posted from Alexander Mercouris is not anti-Semitic.
Did you bother to view and listen to him?

They entered the "Promised Land" under the Law given to Moses ...
“And if you faithfully obey the voice of the LORD your God, being careful to do all his commandments that I command you today, the LORD your God will
set you high above all the nations of the earth.
And all these blessings shall come upon you and overtake you, if you obey the voice of the LORD your God.
Deuteronomy 28:1-2
“But if you will not obey the voice of the LORD your God or be careful to do all his commandments and his statutes that I command you today,
then all these curses shall come upon you and overtake you.
Cursed shall you be in the city, and cursed shall you be in the field.
Deuteronomy 28:15-16

After the Year of Jubilee victory (1967) that the Jews enjoyed the modern nation of Israel had the opportunity to implement the Law and show the world the moral
superiority of the God given Law that the Children of Israel had received. But alas they did not, but rather chose to regain Biblical Israel through violence and terrorism
against the Christian and Muslim Arab population under their occupation so as to drive the Palestinians off their lands and into Egypt, Jordan, etc.

Lev 19:13 “You shall not oppress your neighbour or rob him. The wages of a hired worker shall not remain with you all night until the morning.
Lev 19:17 “You shall not hate your brother in your heart, but you shall reason frankly with your neighbour, lest you incur sin because of him.

When a stranger sojourns with you in your land, you shall not do him wrong.
34 You shall treat the stranger who sojourns with you as the native among you, and you shall love him as yourself, for you were strangers in the land of Egypt: I am the LORD your God.
Leviticus 19:33-34
If your enemy is hungry, give him bread to eat, and if he is thirsty, give him water to drink,
for you will heap burning coals on his head, and the LORD will reward you.

Rom 11:25; For I do not want you, brethren, to be uninformed of this mystery—so that you will not be wise in your own estimation—that a partial hardening has happened to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in;
Rom 11:26; and so all Israel will be saved; just as it is written, "THE DELIVERER WILL COME FROM ZION, HE WILL REMOVE UNGODLINESS FROM JACOB."
Rom 11:27; "THIS IS MY COVENANT WITH THEM, WHEN I TAKE AWAY THEIR SINS."

"for the sake of the fathers" - for the sake of the promises made directly to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob - not for his love of those who rejected their promised Messiah and Saviour.
70AD was a pretty dramatic divorce from God.
Also note the inheritance of the land promised to Abraham is not just for the Jews only, but also to all the seed of Abraham.

And if the Jews of today are such goody goodies [as many one-eyed Christian Zionists claim] then why are Jerusalem and the Jews fated for another catastrophic destruction ?
Jerusalem and Judah shall suffer an almost total destruction with Jesus returning on the last day to save a remnant on whom he shall pour out his Spirit.
Zechariah 12:2 “Behold, I am about to make Jerusalem a cup of staggering to all the surrounding peoples. The siege of Jerusalem will also be against Judah.

Zechariah 14:2 For I will gather all the nations against Jerusalem to battle, and the city shall be taken and the houses plundered and the women raped. Half of the city shall go out into exile,
but the rest of the people shall not be cut off from the city.
3 Then the LORD will go out and fight against those nations as when he fights on a day of battle.

Rev 16:16 And they assembled them at the place that in Hebrew is called Armageddon.

Seems a pretty dramatic reconciliation planned out for Judah and the Jews.

70AD was not a divorce from God, it was punishment, and a hard lesson they had to learn. God is always willing to take back those who seek him.

1. The majority of Jews no longer practice Judaism, and certainly not Christianity, so it's a little funny that you would expect them to follow the Bible, or even the Old Testament Torah.
2. It's interesting that you expect the Jews to just roll over and die, to just give in. But you don't expect the Palestinians to roll over die and just give in. Even though the Arabs already have
the vast majority of the land in the middle east. That seems a little hypocritical don't you think?
3. Lastly, you 'ARE' supposedly a Christian, and you are supposed to love your neighbor, including the Jews. So why would you want them to die?

70AD was not a divorce from God, it was punishment, and a hard lesson they had to learn. God is always willing to take back those who seek him.

That's right.
Rom 11:23; And they also, if they do not continue in their unbelief, will be grafted in, for God is able to graft them in again.

Rom 11:26; and so all Israel will be saved; just as it is written, "THE DELIVERER WILL COME FROM ZION, HE WILL REMOVE UNGODLINESS FROM JACOB."
Rom 11:27; "THIS IS MY COVENANT WITH THEM, WHEN I TAKE AWAY THEIR SINS."
Rom 11:28; From the standpoint of the gospel they are enemies for your sake, but from the standpoint of God's choice they are beloved for the sake of the fathers;

‘Al-Aqsa Flood’: The surprise is that some are surprised
article by - Alastair Crooke - Director of Conflicts Forum; Former Senior British Diplomat; Author.

The cry for Al-Aqsa resonated across the entire Islamic sphere. Why did the West not get it?
Al-Aqsa Flood is held to be "Israel’s" greatest ‘intelligence failure’.
Maybe so, but if Israeli and American intelligence did not see the attack coming, it is because of their Western mechanical, literal way of thinking.
If I, and probably thousands of 'Al Mayadeen' readers, broadly knew that this was in the works (but not of course, of its operational details), why was "Israel" blind to it?

Palestinians rallied to the call to safeguard the Holy Al-Aqsa Mosque.
It was not just Hamas; it was West Bank Palestinians and (for the first time, too, 1948 Palestinians who have Israeli passports) who all rose up to protect Al-Aqsa.
Just to be clear, the rallying cry was not for Hamas; it was not for Palestinian nationalism. It was for Al-Aqsa -- an icon that goes to the heart of what it is to be Muslim (Sunni or Shi’a).
It was a cry that resonated across the entire Islamic sphere.

Did the West not get it? Apparently not. It was right under their nose, but super high-tech Intel doesn’t do symbolic meaning.

So, what has this to do with Al-Aqsa Flood?
Well, the political right in Netanyahu’s government has two long-standing commitments.
One is to rebuild the Jewish Temple on ‘Temple Mount’ (Haram al-Shariff).
Just to be clear, that would entail demolishing Al-Aqsa.

The second overriding commitment is to the founding of "Israel", on the "Land of Israel".
And again, to be clear, this (in their view) would entail clearing out Palestinians from the West Bank.
Indeed, the settlers have been cleansing Palestinians from swaths of the West Bank over the past year (notably between Ramallah and Jericho).

On Thursday morning (two days preceding Al-Aqsa Flood), more than 800 settlers stormed the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound, under the full protection of Israeli forces.
The drumbeat of such provocations is rising.
This is nothing new. The First Intifada was triggered by (then) Prime Minister Sharon making a provocative visit into the mosque.
I was a part of Senator George Mitchell’s Presidential Committee investigating that incident.
Even then, it was clear that Sharon intended the visit to fuel the fire of Religious nationalism.
At that time, the Temple Mount Movement was a minnow; today it has ministers in Cabinet and in key security positions -- and has promised its followers to build the ‘Third Temple’.
