Note how the local Fatah leader completely misrepresents the events, claiming that Israeli “settlers” gratuitously attacked the poor, peaceful “Palestinians,” who were just minding their own business. Given the genocidal belligerence and ubiquitous jihad imperative of the “Palestinian” people, who were invented to be used as a weapon against Israel, this is scarcely believable, but Essam Saifi knows that the international media will eat it up, and that it could even result in new condemnations of Israel from the likes of the UN and the International Criminal Court. So there is no downside to lying.
“IDF kills terrorist who fatally shot two Israelis, wounded three others in West Bank,” by James Genn, Jerusalem Post, July 24, 2026:
Two Israelis, including an IDF officer, were killed and several others were lightly-to-seriously wounded in a terror shooting near Gilad Farm, a settlement located southwest of Nablus in the northern West Bank, on Friday morning.
According to the IDF, a group of Israeli civilians had illegally crossed into Palestinian Authority-controlled territory while hiking in the area. The military said Palestinians confronted the group and began throwing rocks before one of them opened fire.
The IDF said troops and other security forces rushed to the scene, where they exchanged fire with the suspected attackers.
The Palestinian Authority’s Health Ministry said at least four Palestinians were killed and four others were wounded, including three in critical condition. A different account was provided by Essam Saifi, a local Fatah leader from the area, who told Reuters that about 25 to 30 Israeli settlers initially entered the area, attacked residents, and attempted to break into two homes. According to Saifi, local residents came out to confront them, at which point the settlers opened fire.
Saifi said the Israelis returned about half an hour later and attacked the western part of the town, wounding a minor. The ensuing chaos was followed by the arrival of Israeli forces, who, together with the settlers, opened fire, he told Reuters.
The murdered Israeli was identified as 32-year-old Benayahu Melet, a member of Gilad Farm’s emergency response squad who was killed after attempting to aid hikers under assault by Palestinians. He leaves behind a wife and two daughters, aged 13 and 12, respectively….

The Western media, which is overall a monumental disgrace, will ignore this as much as it has ignored the slaughter of Christians in Africa by Muslims. In the alternative, should the Western media cover this (unlikely), it will come with some kind of “but” or “however” or some other form of excuse making.
Chevelle says
Very strong comment there. You must apply this to the governments of the west and its churches. All of them only talk about the Palestinians . They ignore the massacres of Christian people.
They love Islam so much. Like Mike Carney. If a Palestinian person or group attacks, it is not covered. Or it’s quickly forgotten, OCTOBER 7 ANYBODY! Nobody talks about the reason for this war.
Only Trump and Israel are at fault! Our democrats , half the country is for terrorists. Palestine is more popular than Israel today in America. So I guess a terror attack gets a reward. Got it! Sends a great message now to the rest of them!

I am fully ready to apply what I stated above about the MSM to sundry Western governments and to the now many pathetic Christian denominations in the West, including the most powerful of all Christian denominations, i.e., the Roman Catholic Church, which has become a shadow of its former self.
Oh yes, the descent of the West continues. Big time.

Yea October 7 is buried, even Israel doesn’t talk about it weirdly. I agree and I always critique anti Israel pro Islam Christian groups, which are many.
I’m trying to wrap
My head around the culture change that hit our country. It has something to do with social media and the massive amount of volume Muslims, leftists, and pro Islam Christians threw at us since October 7. It got people brainwashed one by one by one and really cleaned up Islams image problem as well as Palestine.
It is hard to win a debate if the anti jihad side gets five minutes for example, while all the pro jihad sides get to speak 90 minutes. This is what’s happening in a nutshell.
We are too welcoming of religions here, and Islam masquerades as a religion but it’s a political cult trying to take over everywhere it goes. That’s what’s happening with Omar, mamdani, Ellison , talaib and others. I am afraid we only scratched the ice berg. They are going to flood city councils, senates and houses form here on out. People like them.

The only way to stop Islamic terrorism in Israel is through painful punishment, that is, expelling the terrorist’s family and destroying the mosque near his home.
That way they will learn to curb terrorism, since the imams do not want to live in peace, they want to destroy the Jews, and therefore such punishment is required here that the punishment for terrorism will be too heavy for the Muslim public and the Islamic leaders will not be able to ask them for something they cannot meet.

These constant jihad attacks should make everyone understand what brought about the Balkan war. After being attacked by Muslims for years and years, they finally got fed up and did something about it. I’m guessing there were no women and children in those concentration camps only jihadists.

America doesn’t like the Serbs. Even in the pecking order, Croats are behind Muslims, as America supported Muslims over Croats, and Croats over Serbs.
Serbs don’t like us, so it is what it is.
