“I asked the Israeli soldier, 'Do you love your father and mother?' He replied, “Yes.” So I asked him, “Then why are you killing my father and mother?” So he punched me in the face.” - 11 year old, Khaled Ali Bani Odeh. t.co/DmfIOD9JA6

Saturday afternoon in the village of Wadi al-Rahim. Mohammed Shnaran, a 57-year-old farmer, was out in his barley field because a settler had driven a herd of cows into his crops. Mohammed and his sons had spent months cultivating that field.
When Mohammed tried to call the police, there was no answer. He tried to film the damage, but the settler smashed his phone and hit him in the face with brass knuckles.
Then reinforcements arrived—settlers in an off-road vehicle. One of them was wearing an army uniform. From just a few meters away, the uniformed settler fired two shots at Mohammed’s son, 29-year-old Amir. The bullets hit his neck and chest. He died instantly in his father’s arms.
While Mohammed was checking for a pulse, the settler fired again, hitting his other son, Khaled, in the side. Khaled is currently in intensive care, unconscious, and likely paralyzed for life.
As the family tried to rush the brothers to a clinic, settlers used their own cars to block the road, delaying their access to help. By the time they reached a doctor, Amir was pronounced dead.
By that evening, the story had been flipped. The settlers released a video claiming they had survived a "brutal lynch" and that a "soldier" had stepped in to save them. The people who brought cows, brass knuckles, and rifles onto private property were now the victims. The military's official response called the killing of a son a "claim" that they are "investigating."
The next morning, the brother of the shooter showed up at the edge of the village with a backhoe and military protection. He started digging up the land to make it easier for settlers to trespass. He didn’t wait 24 hours. He was back at the exact spot where Amir was murdered, protected by the same army that stood by the day before.
Mohammed is left with a field of trampled barley and a destroyed family. He followed the law, he called for help, and he stayed on his own land. In return, he is burying one son and praying for another who may never walk again.
This is the reality of the South Hebron Hills. It is a place where a neighbor can destroy your life and then return the next day with a tractor and a uniform to finish the job. - Miral Askar
If Iran had nukes the US would be attacking a different country right now. We only ever target the weaker ones, and never those that can fight back. This is the American way.

Thousands gathered to mourn the loss of the Maronite priest Fr. Pierre El-Rahi, who was killed by an Israeli tank in Qlayaa, South Lebanon, on March 09.
Just days earlier, Father Pierre had said: “None of us carries any weapons. The only weapons we carry are peace, goodness, and love.”

Well deserved. Double Down News has consistently reported the truth about Gaza and Israel from day 1. If you are not following them on here and on YouTube, you should be. @DoubleDownNewst.co/GMhdLpO9cP
Hundreds of thousands of cell phones, buried under the rubble in Gaza. Many of which contrain videos of people filming their last moments before Israel killed them, and other related war crimes.
We often wonder about all the evidence buried under that rubble.
