The Spirit of and War on Christmas

by Mazin Qumsiyeh - Popular Resistance

It is sometimes had to develop a spirit of Christmas under occupation. On Friday 17 Palestinians were injured by Israeli occupation forces in Bethlehem including a friend of mine.

 

Rehab is a photographer who was there to document what is going.

Targeting journalists and photojournalists is not new to the Israeli regime and has been practiced since 1948. One journalists and writer who is held without trial has been on hunger strike since 25 November is Mohammad AlQeeq.

Atrocities continued... 

The Israeli officials continue to call for more racist killing of Palestinian natives who are merely asking for  freedom after decades of Israeli colonial occupation. Ministers call for murder and ethnic cleansing. One member of the Israeli Knesset even supports the burning of Palestinian children alive (saying this is not terrorism for Jews cannot commit terrorist crimes).

The Israeli system refused to punish those who actually did such a horrible deed on a 13 year old Palestinian child. But I digress.
