    That’s not a “clash” that is outright murder. Typical journal, parroting Israeli propaganda.

    @frank_66: The Defence for Children International Palestine website is well worth signing up to, they give a full list of the Palestinian children killed and imprisoned by the Occupation forces,many of them held without charge by ‘ secret evidence’, all of them are tried under military law in Hebrew, a language most of them do not understand, some of them are transferred to prisons in Israel, a war crime under the Geneva conventions. Israeli colonists living in the Occupied territories are subject to Israeli civil law. Only significant sanctions by the international community will change the actions of the Israeli government.

    @Raymond Barry:
    Ever wondered why there is anti Israeli sentiment?
    Perhaps because of events such as this (and there were many of them, Palestinians had to be replaced with immigrants in order to achieve the Israeli “dream”, or “nightmare” for the Palestinians).

    On 7 June 1967 Israel expelled over 2,000 Palestinians from the village of Imwas in the West Bank. Today, this would be called ethnic cleansing. The village was then destroyed and “reforested,” turned into a popular picnicking park for Israelis, that very deliberately obscures all traces that people actually lived in this spot 52 years ago. The Jewish National Fund raised $5 million in Canada to build it, so it is called Canada Park.
    Some of the villagers took refuge with relatives in Jerusalem, others crossed the Jordan River and ended up in new camps created in Jordan, and others would have ended up in refugee camps in Gaza.
    Two other villages near Imwas were also ethnically cleansed in June 1967, Yalu and Beit Nuba.

    Never forget!

    @Raymond Barry: Especially since it’s a historical sentiment we have against Jews, no matter where they live. Hamas and clerics send teens out with instructions to riot, throw rocks and set off firecrackers near soldiers of a tiny state surrounded by countries with millions who hate them for their religion alone, knowing the outcome. Coveney was wrong. We have a history more in line with Israel than Palestine, so should understand where they are coming from.

    A lot of fruit and vegetables come from Israel, grown on Palestinian land but labelled as “made in Israel” to profit from the low tariffs agreed with the EU. This is illegal and should stop. Ireland needs to pass the Occupied Territories Bill, which FG blocked during the negotiations for the new government last year.
    Tesco has Israeli potatoes and avocados. Vote with your purse, don’t buy them.

    See the BDS movement website: https://bdsmovement.net/.
    In the meantime, here are a few products you can boycott if you wish:

    AHAVA DEAD SEA COSMETICS

    Ahava manufactures its cosmetics in a factory in the illegal Mitzpe Shalem settlement in occupied West Bank, but labels its products imported into the EU as from “The Dead Sea, Israel.” It uses uses Palestinian natural resources without the permission of or compensation to Palestinians. Israel denies Palestinians access to the shores of the Dead Sea and its resources, although one-third of the shore of the Dead Sea lies in the occupied West Bank.

    VICTORIA SECRETS
    Palestinians have criticized the company for establishing its headquarters on land expropriated from Palestinians.

    INTEL
    Intel plants are on the site of the former Palestinian villages Iraq al-Manshiya and Faluja, from which villagers were forcibly expelled in 1948 to achieve Israel’s strategic plan to achieve ‘Arab-clear’ frontiers”, i.e. ethnic cleansing.

    MCDONALDS
    McDonalds has a partnership with the Jewish United Fund, which promotes visits to Kiryat Gat, built on top of a destroyed Palestinian village.

    SODASTREAM CARBONED PRODUCTS

    Sodasteam is located in the illegal Israeli settlement of Maale Adumim. The company directly supports Israel’s illegal occupation and colonization of Palestinian land by paying taxes to municipal settlement governments, employing local settlers, and providing the economic infrastructure for Israel’s settlement expansion.
