19 Palestinians killed by Israeli gunfire since the beginning of the year
Picture
Amira Hass, the Haaretz correspondent in occupied territories, revealed that 3,565 break-ins were carried out by Israeli forces in different cities and villages throughout West Bank since the beginning of 2013, including 297 break-ins during August where 209 Palestinians were arrested. She noted that 3,268 Israeli raids were carried out between January and July 2013 against Palestinian villages in West Bank, while 3,536 Israeli raids were reported during the same period of 2012.

Nearly 6,193 raids took place in West Bank during 2012 while 7,190 raids were reported in 2010, she added.

Has said that 19 Palestinians were killed by Israeli gunfire since the beginning of the year, most recently was the killing of the three Palestinians in Qalandia refugee camp on Monday.

The Israeli incursions are usually accompanied by violent clashes and gunfire, which resulted in number of injuries and arrests.

Haas noted that the Israeli raids have no boundaries or timing. The raids are carried out at the early morning hours as well as at late hours. They are not limited to specific Palestinian areas but rather target Palestinian big cities as well as villages and towns.

DFLP demands PA to join int'l criminal court to prosecute Israel for its crimes
Picture
The democratic front for the liberation of Palestine (DFLP) called on the Palestinian Authority (PA) to join the international criminal court and take legal action against the Israeli regime for killing three Palestinians in Qalandiya refugee camp on Monday. A senior DFLP official demanded, in a press release on Tuesday, the PA to join the international court in order to curb Israel's aggressive actions against the Palestinians in the occupied territories.

He denounced the PA leadership for backtracking on its intention to join the international criminal court and some UN organizations in order to return to the negotiating table and without demanding an end to Israel's settlement activities and human rights violations in the occupied Palestinian territories.

He said that the PA leadership's submissiveness to the US-Israeli pressures renders the Palestinian people easy prey to the daily attacks launched by the Jewish settlers and the Israeli occupation forces.

The DFLP official called on the PA to withdraw from the peace negotiations with Israel in compliance with the national consensus.

In a related incident, the Palestinian national and Islamic political forces in Jenin city and its refugee camp organized a massive rally last night to protest the Israeli killing of three young men in Qalandiya refugee camp.

The participants chanted slogans and carried banners condemning the PA's persistence in its negotiations with the Israeli occupation regime despite its crimes and violations against the Palestinians.

Symbolic funeral march for Qalandiya martyrs tomorrow in Ramallah
Picture
A facebook youth group called for a symbolic funeral march next Wednesday in Ramallah city to demand the Palestinian Authority (PA) to immediately stop its negotiations and security cooperation with the Israeli occupation in response to the killing of three young men in Qalandiya refugee camp by its soldiers. The facebook page, which was named "the blood of our martyrs is not cheap" was established by a group of young activists living in the West Bank.

The group strongly denounced Adnan Addameri, the spokesman for the PA security agencies, for describing in remarks on Monday the Qalandiya crime as an Israeli attempt to torpedo the peace negotiations.

"Do we have, after this crime, to frustrate the occupation's attempt to destroy the negotiations and hang on to it more and more?" the group questioned.

The group also demanded the PA to end its restrictions on the Palestinian resistance in the West Bank and give it a free hand to restore the dignity of the Palestinian people which was violated by the occupation in the camp.

The protesters will march from central Ramallah towards the PA headquarters, carrying symbolic coffins draped with Palestinian flags.

Killing of three Palestinians from Qalandiya triggers clashes in Al-Khalil
Picture
Violent clashes broke out on Monday between Israeli soldiers and angry young men in Al-Khalil city following the deadly attack on Qalandiya refugee camp, which led to the killing of three young men and the injury of many others. Eyewitnesses told the Palestinian information center (PIC) that young men clashed with invading troops in BaB Azzawiya and Shalala areas in central Al-Khalil.

The young men confronted the troops with throwing stones and some of them were able to pick up smoking tear gas canisters and hurl them back in the direction of the occupation forces.

One young man was reportedly rounded up during the events. 

The confrontations also spread to Al-Fawwar refugee camp to the south of Al-Khalil, where dozens of angry young men torched tires and clashed with the invading troops, who showered them with a hail of tear gas grenades.

A growing popular rage in the west Bank started in the West Bank after the Israeli occupation forces (IOF) at dawn Monday killed three young men and wounded many others during a violent raid on Qalandiya refugee camp, north of occupied Jerusalem.

Meanwhile, the IOF closed on the evening of the same day the northern crossing of Al-Khalil city for about two hours and prevented the Palestinian vehicles from going in or out.

Eyewitnesses told the Palestinian information center (PIC) the Israeli soldiers stationed at a military watchtower near the entrance to Halhoul town, north of Al-Khalil, set up a checkpoint and embarked on searching vehicles and checking the IDs of passengers, especially young men.

The soldiers at the checkpoint forced many young men to leave public buses and detained them for some time before they let them go.

In a separate incident, unruly armed Jewish settlers living in seized property in Tel Rumeida neighborhood in Al-Khalil attacked on Monday Palestinian passersby and homes.

Residents in the area reported over the phone to the Palestinian information center (PIC) that armed Jewish settlers threw stones and empty bottles at their homes in the neighborhood, which caused damage to Palestinian cars, and chased citizens.

Report: Israeli, Palestinian negotiators met in Jericho
Picture
Israeli and Palestinian negotiators met in Jericho on Monday to discuss the peace process, despite an announcement by the PLO that talks had been canceled following the killing of three Palestinians earlier in the day.

A Palestinian official, who chose to remain anonymous, told the Xinhua News Agency that the two negotiation teams met in the house of chief Palestinian negotiator Saeb Erekat in Jericho.

"Erekat presented to his Israeli counterparts a string protest to the earlier killing of three Palestinians by the Israeli soldiers' gunfire in northern Ramallah," the source said.

The US State Department, which is mediating the talks, insisted that no meeting planned as part of the ongoing peace process had been cancelled.

"I can assure you that no meeting has been cancelled," State Department spokeswoman Marie Harf told reporters in Washington.

"As we have said the parties are engaged in serious and sustained negotiations," Harf said.

"We are not going to announce when every meeting takes place. But again I can assure you that no meeting has been cancelled."

Earlier, a Palestinian official told AFP that "the meeting that was to take place in Jericho ... today was cancelled because of the Israeli crime committed in Qalandia today," referring to the killing of three Palestinians in an overnight arrest raid.

Israel's Channel 2 news reported that a meeting had taken place between negotiators on Monday after the killings in Qalandia, but Israel tried to minimize coverage to avoid embarrassing the Palestinian side.

Clashes in Qalandia during the funeral of the three Martyrs
Thousands of Palestinians participated in the funeral of the three Martyrs that passed away on Monday morning during the Israeli forces raid on Qalandia refugee camp north of Jerusalem.

The funeral of Rubin Al-Abed Fayez Zayed, Younes Jihad Abu Sheikh Jahjouh and Jihad Aslan initiated from in front of the Palestine Medical Center towards Qalandia refugee camp as the Martyrs were transferred in ambulances and upon arrival to the refugee camp, each Martyr was carried to his house so that his family and friends can take the last look at him.

The funeral march was fronted with masked individuals who heavily fired shots in the air, a tribute to the Martyrs’ spirits and chanted slogans calling to avenge the assassination process. After performing the funeral prayer, the three Martyrs were buried in the refugee camp’s cemetery.
It is noteworthy that Rubin is a freed prisoner who was free within the “Shalit” deal nearly two years ago, and Younes Jahjouh is a freed prisoner and is in his first year at Modern Media Institute which is part of the University of Jerusalem.

After the funeral was over, clashes broke out between the young men and the occupation forces in which the forces fired sound bombs, tear gas bombs and rubber bullets towards the young men who threw stones and empty bottles.

Dozens of passers-by from the camp and the area suffocated from the tear gas and several others were injured with rubber bullets.
Barghouti Demands ICC Justice
Picture
On Monday morning, 26 August, Dr. Mustafa Barghouti, Secretary General of the Palestinian National Initiative, expressed his horror and disgust of the Israeli occupation’s continued crimes. Early this morning, three unarmed Palestinians, Rubin al-Abed, 32, Yunis Jahjuh, 22, and Jihad Aslan, 20, were killed by live ammunition fired by Israeli soldiers; 15 others were injured. 

“These latest murders are yet another example of the Israeli impunity for murdering civilians,” said Barghouti. “It cheapens the blood of our people, the Palestinian people, to see that such affronts to humanity have become regular occurrences.” 

“These cold-blooded murders are tantamount to war crimes that Israel must be held responsible for,” Barghouti went on to say.

“The worst forms of racial discrimination reared its ugly head today. Occupation soldiers shot to kill by aiming at the upper parts of bodies. They blocked ambulances from ferrying wounded people to the hospital. Yunis Jahjuh, severely wounded, was delayed from receiving medical attention, and,  as a direct result of these inhumane actions, was pronounced dead at the hospital,” said Barghouti.  

Dr. Barghothi demanded a clear and definite cease to the ongoing Israeli-Palestinian negotiations in light of these events. He called to lift the farce of these negotiations, during which Israel has pushed forth its campaign of aggression, occupation and settlement activity unabated.

Dr. Barghouti made clear that the crimes of the occupation will not stop until sanctions are imposed on Israel, which continues to shed the blood of Palestinians, implements a system of Apartheid upon Palestinian land, and ignores the most basic of international norms and conventions. 

He noted that this morning’s attack on Qalandia Refugee Camp is similar to the Israeli military incursion into Jenin Refugee Camp one week ago, when Palestinian civilian Majd Mohammed Lahloh was martyred and many others were wounded. 

As Israel continues to toy with the lives of Palestinians, Dr. Barghothi suggested that Palestine should refer Israel’s war crimes to the International Criminal Court (ICC) without delay in order to protect the lives and rights of Palestinians. He stated that in order to bring an end to such war crimes as those seen today, the ICC must not hesitate in punishing the political and military authorities responsible for such atrocities.

UNRWA Condemns the Killing of UN Staff Member in the Occupied West Bank
Picture
Statement by Chris Gunness UNRWA Spokesman

Jerusalem 26 August 2013

UNRWA deeply regrets to confirm that one of its staff members, a 34-year-old father of four, was shot dead by Israeli forces and killed instantly in an operation in Kalandia refugee camp in the occupied West Bank at approximately seven o'clock this morning.

Credible reports say that he was on his way to work and was not engaged in any violent activity. He was shot in the chest. Another UNRWA staff member, a sanitation laborer, was shot in the leg during the same operation and is in a stable condition. An UNRWA investigation is ongoing.

Today’s killing took place during an incursion into Kalandia refugee camp during which three people in total were killed and about twenty injured, some of them seriously.

UNRWA condemns the killing of its staff member and calls on all sides, at this delicate time, to exercise maximum restraint and to act in accordance with obligations under international law.

Israel Kill Three Palestinians in Coordination With PA
Picture
Israeli death squads of the so-called border police operating under cover, reportedly dressing in women clothes, killed three Palestinians in the Qalandia Refugee camp near Ramallah and left another 19 persons injured in an operation which led to the arrest of dozens of political activists. The death squad operation was coordinated with the so-called Palestinian Authority (PA) security forces and was directed against some political activists from Hamas who had been released by the Zionist regime during the Gilad Shalit exchange.

PA intelligence personnel and militia have arrested several hundred Hamas elements in the occupied West Bank during the past days, following the Egyptian military coup. The PA also banned demonstration or rallies against the military coup and in solidarity with ousted Egyptian President Mohammad Morsi in the small cantons under its nominal control in the occupied West Bank.

The PA has used excessive force and other methods of state terrorism to disperse the large number of protesters attending demos in Ramallah and Hebron. Last Friday many journalists were beaten up, their equipment damaged, and the films, tapes and storage devices removed from photo and video cameras in order to hide the brutality of how the soldiers are dealing with civilians during peaceful demonstrations, civilians who want to express their opinion in marches and other legitimate shows of dissent. On the other hand, in the context of the recent series of political arrests, the PA has entrusted the arrest of a number of Palestinian political leaders and activists to the zionist occupation forces in order to avoid criticism from the Palestinian population when its own repressive elements arrest them.

Early today morning, at round 5:30 AM and with full knowledge of the PA, the israeli death squads operating “undercover” entered the refuge camp of Qalandia and arrested several well-known Palestinian opposition figures. Palestinian youths of the area protested against the filthy coordinated mission between of israeli soldiers and PA elements. As usual for such occasions, they hurled insults and threw stones at the zionists death squads.

A detachment of the IDF Artillery Corps was stationed nearby providing additional cover for the death squad unit. When the protests of the Qalandia youths nearby started, they were alerted and started shooting everywhere. The result was that three Palestinians were killed and 19 injured. All this in order to protect the death squad unit frompretty much defenseless youths.

The three victims are Robin al-Abed, 32, who was shot in the chest and died instantly according to; Younis Jihad Abu al-Sheikh Jahjouh, 22, who was also shot dead, and Jihad Asslan, 20, who died Monday morning from his injuries after being pronounced brain dead at a Ramallah hospital. It was later said that among those who were arrested by the israelis was a Palestinian man who had been released from an israeli prison just a month ago.

The PA, which had been involved in coordinating this “under cover “ operation with the IDF, was forced to condemn the murder of the three Palestinians in public in order to deflect the huge anger which broke out as a consequence of the operation. PA officials even went so far as to claim that they has “canceled” the so-called “peace talks” which were planned for Monday in Jericho.

This is a funny as moot pretense because of course all Palestinians know that the PA “condemnation” and its “decisions” are worth null, as the PA itself is nothing more than a puppet of the American-zionist project in Palestine. The PA should never forget that they are group of criminals who have taken over the dirty work of the occupation and enthroned by their masters as the current dictator regime in Palestine. And their masters will discard them like an old magazine when their usefulness is over.

Later, the US State Department on Monday denied reports that a round of US-brokered peace talks between Israel and the Palestinians had been canceled following clashes in the Qalandia of the West Bank. “I can assure you that no meetings have been canceled,” State Department spokeswoman Mari Harf told Reuters. “The parties are engaged in serious and sustained negotiations,” she said.

Earlier Monday, a senior Palestinian official stated that the Palestinian envoys to the peace talks canceled a meeting with their Israeli counterparts.

فرقة موت صهيونية تقتل ثلاثة فلسطينيين بالتنسيق مع السلطة الفلسطينية
سلطة عباس تبحث عن راشقي الحجارة إتجاه فرقة الموت وتعتقل عددا منهم

قتلت اليوم فرقة الموت الإسرائيلية, وهي فرقة عسكرية تتنكر في إرتداء لباس الفلسطينيين المدني ثلاثة فلسطينيين في مخيم قلنديا قرب رام الله وأصابت 19 آخرين بجروح, بينهم على الأقل أربعة في حالة الخطر والموت السريري, كما اعتقلت الوحدة عددا من النشطاء السياسيين من رموز الفصائل الفلسطينية وذلك خلال عملية تنسيق “أمني” مسبقة مع مليشيات ما يسمى السلطة (السلطة الفلسطينية) أو قوات “الأمن الفلسطينية” الخاضعة لسلطة عباس

ونفذت في الصباح الباكر من اليوم، الساعة 5:30 صباحا فرقة الموت الإسرائيلية من “المستعربين” مهمة ما تم الأتفاق عليه بينها وبين رجال “الأمن” في سلطة عباس

ودخلت قوات المستعربين مخيم قلنديا واعتقلت عددا من الشخصيات المعارضة للفلسطينية. الأمر الذي أدى إلى انفجار غضب سكان المخيم ورشقهم لقوات المستعربين بالحجارة الأمر الذيب أدى إلى تدخل ما يسمى بقوات فيلق المدفعية الإسرائيلية التي كانت تتوقف على مقربة من المكان لتوفير غطاء امني لقوات المستعربين

وفتحت قوات فيلق المدفعية الصهيونية نيران أسلحتها الموت على الشبان في قلنديا. وكانت النتيجة إستشهاد ثلاثة فلسطينيين وأصابة 19 آخرين وصفت إصابات أربعة منهم بالخطيرة

 والضحايا الثلاثة هم: روبين فارس (32 عاما)، ويونس جحجوح (22 عاما) وجهاد اصلان (19 عاما) استشهدوا صباح اليوم جراء اصابتهم برصاص الوحدات الخاصة وجنود الاحتلال في مخيم قلنديا

وذهب عدد من مسؤولي السلطة الفلسطينية إلى حد الزعم بأنهم قد عملوا على “إلغاء” ما يسمى بلقاء “محادثات السلام” التي كان مخططا لها اليوم الاثنين في أريحا

في وقت لاحق، نفت وزارة الخارجية الامريكية يوم الاثنين تقارير تفيد بأن السلطة الفلسطينية ألغت جولة من المحادثات مع إسرائيل في أعقاب اشتباكات وقعت في مخيم قلنديا في الضفة الغربية, وقالت بان جولة المباحثات تمت بين الجانبين دون تأخير

تنسيق أمني والسلطة الفلسطينية تبحث عن راشقي الحجارة وتعتقل عددا منهم

العملية العسكرية الصهيونية التي تمت بالتنسيق مع قادة الأجهزة الأمنية في السلطة الفلسطينية ممن يديرون ما يسمى ب “مكاتب الإرتباط العسكري” (دي سي أو), وهي مكاتب  للتجسس تنتشر في مدن الضفة الغربية, وتعمل لصالح جهاز المخابرات الصهيوني “شاباك”, والتي ذهب ضحيتها ثلاثة شبان من مخيم قلنديا وإصابة آخرين, كانت موجهة ضد بعض الناشطين السياسيين ممن تعتقد السلطة الفلسطينية أنهم من العناصر الموالية لحركة حماس, وافرجت عن أحدهم قبل ذلك قوات النظام الصهيوني خلال صفقة “شاليط” لتبادل الأسرى بين إسرائيل وحركة حماس, وقد أرتأت  السلطة الفلسطينية التخلص منهم وتسلميهم ثانية لإسرائيل عن طريق إعادة إعتقالهم مرة ثانية

وكانت المخابرات الفلسطينية وميليشيا “عباس الأمنية” قد اعتقلت خلال الأيام الماضية المئات من عناصر حركة حماس في الضفة الغربية المحتلة, في أعقاب الانقلاب العسكري المصري الذي أطاح بالرئيس المنتخب محمد مرسي, وبدأ مفاوضات عبثية مع الجانب الصهيوني, تسمى ب “محادثات السلام”, وذلك في أكبر عملية إعتقال شنتها السلطة منذ عام 2006

كما حظرت سلطة “عباس” في الجيوب الصغيرة الواقعة تحت سيطرتها الاسمية في الضفة الغربية المحتلة, التظاهر ضد الانقلاب العسكري في مصر والتضامن مع الرئيس المخلوع مرسي

واستخدمت السلطة الفلسطينية القوة المفرطة وغيرها من أساليب إرهاب الدولة البوليسية الوحشية من أجل تفريق عدد من المتظاهرين توقفوا في رام الله والخليل بعد صلاة يوم الجمعة تضامنا مع الرئيس مرسي

واعتدى عناصر الأمن الوهمي بالضرب على الصحفيين، وصادروا أقراص التصوير وأفلام الفيديو واتلفوا جميعها من أجل إخفاء المظاهر الوحشية لقوات “عباس” اثناء تعاملهم مع المدنيين خلال مظاهرات سلمية كفلها القانون والإتفاقيات الدولية التي وقعتها السلطة القمعية

من ناحية أخرى، وفي سياق السلسلة الأخيرة من الاعتقالات السياسية التي نفذتها السلطة الفلسطينية فقد أوكلت سلطة “عباس” إلى نظرائها في جيش الأحتلال مهمة اعتقال عدد من القادة السياسيين الفلسطينيين والنشطاء من أجل تجنب انتقادات السكان لها أثناء إعتقالهم

واضطرت السلطة الفلسطينية، التي دأبت على المشاركة فيما يسمى ب “عمليات التنسيق الأمني” مع جيش الأحتلال الصهيوني, وهي عمليات مشبوهة ويرفضها الشعب الفلسطيني  لإدانة قتل الفلسطينيين الثلاثة في الأماكن العامة من أجل تشتيت موجة الغضب العارم التي اندلعت نتيجة للعملية الأرهابية

جدير بالذكر بأن مخابرات “عباس” قد إعتقلت عددا من راشقي الحجارة على قوات المستعربين الصهاينة أثناء دخولهم مخيم قلنديا, وهي تواصل البحث عن آخرين ظهروا في شريط مسجل يرشقون الحجارة إتجاه الدورية الصهيونية

Military force that killed three Palestinians stayed in Qalandiya Camp until almost 7am
Picture
B’Tselem’s field researchers have begun investigating the incident that took place this morning (26 August) in which three Palestinians – Rubin Zayed, Yunes Jahjuh and Jihad Aslan – were killed by Israeli security forces’ fire in Qalandiya Refugee Camp, and almost twenty others were injured. According to B’Tselem’s initial investigation, as well as media reports, Israeli security forces comprising soldiers and Border Police entered the refugee camp at approximately 6:00 A.M. today with the intention of arresting a Palestinian recently released from Israeli prison. Residents of the camp responded by throwing stones and other objects at the force that was carrying out the arrest itself – some ten Border Police officers – following which soldiers arrived in four armored jeeps in order to escort the force out of the camp, and fired live ammunition.

Over the years, B’Tselem has documented various incidents in which Israeli military forces entering a Palestinian refugee camp were met with massive stone-throwing and responded with fatal fire. One of them occurred in Qalandiya Refugee Camp itself, some two years ago: On 1 August 2011, soldiers entered the camp in the middle of the night on an arrest mission and were met with stone-throwing by residents; at the end of the mission, the force opened fire, killing two residents – Mu'atasem 'Adwan and ‘Ali Khalifah – and injuring a third.

B’Tselem’s initial investigation indicates that several recent arrest operations in Qalandiya Refugee Camp have ended with stone-throwing by residents, to which the soldiers responded by using crowd control weapons, which did not lead to injury. At this early stage, it appears that the stone-throwing was more massive today as the security forces remained in the camp until around 6:45 A.M., a busy hour on the street as the Palestinian school year started yesterday.

Past experience shows that whenever Israeli security forces enter a densely-populated Palestinian residential area, they are exposed to stone-throwing and to a potential threat to their lives – a predictable situation that must surely be known to the command ranks. Indeed, Israeli daily Ha’aretz quoted a military official today as saying that “in recent months, not a single arrest has occurred without the residents responding – whether it’s youths coming out of their houses and throwing stones at the forces, or the use of live fire”.

Given that commanders are well aware of the danger inherent to these situations, such missions should not end with the killing of three civilians. Today’s harsh consequences cast doubt on their judgment in ordering the mission, and on the degree to which the force was prepared in advance. There is also room for grave suspicion that not all possible measures were taken to prevent this result, including the consideration of alternative modes of operation, and that the forces made excessive use of lethal weapons.

An investigation into the incident must be opened immediately in order to examine these issues, and particularly the command’s decision to carry out the arrest in this manner, and the question whether they forces prepared in advance for the mission in a way that could have prevented the use of lethal arms. B’Tselem has written to the Military Advocate for Operational Matters and to the SHAI [Judea and Samaria] District Police, which is in charge of investigating suspected breaches of shooting protocol by Border Police, demanding that an investigation be opened. Additionally, the military must take action to prevent the recurrence of such incidents, such as establishing clear procedures for arrest missions and for the entry of army forces into densely-populated residential areas.

Nabil Fahmi: you are persona non grata in Palestine
Picture
By Khalid Amayreh in occupied Palestine

During his meeting with Palestinian Authority (PA) Chairman Mahmoud Abbas in Ramallah on Monday, the Sisi coup's foreign minister Nabil Fahmi reportedly condemned the murderous killing by the Israeli occupation army of three young Palestinians at the Qalandya refugee camp north of Jerusalem.

"We condemn the occupation forces' killing of three people from Qalandiya refugee camp," Nabil Fahmi told a joint news conference with his Palestinian counterpart Riyad al-Malki.

Fahmi, mainly tasked with explaining and justifying Egypt's bloody coup to the outside world, met Abbas at his headquarters in Ramallah just hours after Israeli occupation forces shot dead three Palestinians at the Qalandiya camp.

"The continuation of violence and settlement expansion decreases the chances of success for negotiations, which we hope will succeed," he said.

Fahmi also expressed Egypt's support for "Palestinian reconciliation, which the Palestinians must reach," describing the process as a "big challenge."

However, it was clear that Fahmi's remarks were conspicuously hypocritical, morally duplicitous and oblivious of cold facts in both Egypt and occupied Palestine.

It is true that the Israeli occupation army murdered three Palestinians in the West Bank while Fahmi was in Ramallah. Well. Israel has been murdering Palestinians since time immemorial. In a certain sense, it’s hardly news.

But in just three hours two weeks ago, the "heroic" Egyptian army and police showered peaceful Egyptian protesters with bullets from air, tanks, and high rooftops, killing more than 3000 people and maiming thousands others. Hundreds of bodies were burned beyond recognition, apparently to destroy evidence while victims' relatives were asked to sign official papers stating that the murdered victims actually committed suicide.

Israel is our existential enemy and ultimate tormentor, and we hardly need the foreign minister of a murderous junta to remind us of this fact.

Indeed, if Fahmi possessed an iota of morality or rectitude, he would at the very least resign his post and stop acting as cheap emissary for the murderers of his people.

Undoubtedly, he will go down in history as the public relations officer of the nefarious usurpers of freedom and democracy and murderers of innocent protesters.

Fahmi said the coup makers were still committed to achieving national reconciliation between Fatah and Hamas.

Well, Hamas is part of the Muslim Brotherhood, the very Islamic movement the criminal coup makers in Cairo insist on labeling "terrorist."!!

Hence, it is really hard to imagine that any reconciliation effort by the Sisi gang would be honest, evenhanded and fruitful. After all, if the Sisi gang can't treat its own people with minimal humanity and minimal respect, would it be expected to treat Palestinians any differently?

In short, we Palestinians don't want to have anything to do with murderers of their own people.

Mr. Fahmi you are persona non-grata in Palestine.

Palestinians clash with Israeli forces in Hebron
Picture
Angered by the killing of three Palestinian men in Qalandia refugee camp by Israeli forces, youths clashed Monday afternoon with Israeli forces in Hebron.

A Ma'an reporter observed young men throwing stones at an Israeli military post stationed at the entrance to Shuhada Street in the center of the Old City.

The street has been closed and controlled by Israeli forces since 1994 after a Jewish extremist shot dead 29 worshipers and injured more than 100 while they were performing prayers at the Ibrahimi Mosque.

Israeli troops showered the demonstrators with tear gas, stun grenades and rubber-coated bullets.

Witnesses said at least two young men were hurt, and another was detained.

An Israeli military spokeswoman did not immediately return calls.

Clashes Take Place In Different Parts Of West Bank

Thee Palestinains Killed By Army Fire, Dozens Injured And Kidnapped

Clashes took place in different parts of the occupied West Bank Monday [August 26, 2013] after Israeli soldiers invaded the Qalandia refugee camp earlier at dawn, north of Jerusalem, shot and killed three Palestinians, and injured dozens of residents, including at least 15 who were shot by live ammunition.

Clashes took place near the Qalandia terminal, while dozens of injuries have been reported as the soldiers fired live rounds, rubber-coated metal bullets, gas bombs and concussion grenades.

The Palestinian News & Info Agency (WAFA) has reported that dozens of soldiers invaded the Aida refugee camp, in Bethlehem, and clashed with dozens of local youths who hurled stones and empty bottles at the invading soldiers.

Medical sources said that several Palestinians in the camp were shot by rubber-coated metal bullets, while dozens suffered the effects of teargas inhalation.

Clashes also took place in Hebron, in the southern part of the occupied West Bank, especially in the Az-Zawiya area, and Be’er As-Sabe’ Street in the center of the city.

Soldiers fired rounds of live ammunition, rubber-coated metal bullets and gas bombs, and kidnapped several Palestinians.

Local sources in the city have reported that scores of soldiers also broke into and searched dozens of homes, and occupied their rooftops using them as monitoring towers.

Israeli daily, Haaretz, said that the army kidnapped 30 Palestinians in Qalandia during clashes that took place after the Palestinians held the funeral ceremonies of the three slain Palestinians.

It said that the army started in “investigation” in what happened after undercover soldiers of the Israeli military infiltrated into the refugee camp to “arrest some wanted Palestinians”.

The army said that “it seems that soldiers did not expect the invasion to be turned into violent clashes”.

Amos Harel, a leading media expert on military affairs at Haaretz, questioned the motives of this infiltration and, invasion into the refugee camp, and why this invasion took place in the midst of the newly resumed fragile direct peace talks between Israel and the Palestinians.

Nabil Abu Rodeina, spokesperson of Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, strongly denounced the Israeli invasion and the killing of the three Palestinians, and said that the invasion “is part of a series of crimes carried out by Israel, and part of Israel’s ongoing violations and escalating settlement construction and expansion activities”.

Egyptian Foreign Minister, Nabil Fahmi, also denounced the Israeli crime in Qalandia, and the ongoing Israeli violations.

His statements came during a press conference held with Palestinian Foreign Minister, Riyad Al-Maliki, in the central West Bank city of Ramallah.

He said that the Israeli escalation and violations limit the chances of successful peace talks, and stated that a Palestinian State must be established next to Israel, with occupied East Jerusalem as the capital of this state.

Thousands attend funeral for Qalandia victims

Thousands of mourners on Monday attended the funeral of three Palestinians shot dead by Israeli forces overnight.

After funeral prayers were said, the bodies of the three men were carried to a cemetery in the camp.

Robin al-Abed, 32, was shot in the chest and died instantly, medics said. Younis Jihad Abu al-Sheikh Jahjouh, 22, was also shot dead.

Jihad Asslan, 20, died Monday morning from his injuries after being pronounced brain dead at a Ramallah hospital.

Al-Abed's mother collapsed upon seeing her son's body. He was reportedly on his way to work in a UN office in the camp when he was shot dead.

A number of gunmen fired into the air while shouting slogans against the killings and calling for revenge.

Clashes broke out at Qalandia checkpoint following the funeral, with Palestinian youths throwing stones and empty bottles at Israeli forces near the military checkpoint.

Israeli forces fired tear gas and rubber-coated steel bullets at demonstrators.

The killing of the three men has been widely condemned by Palestinian officials and peace talks planned for Monday in Jericho have been canceled as a result of the deaths.

"The meeting that was to take place in Jericho...today was cancelled because of the Israeli crime committed in Qalandia today," an official told AFP

Picture
Abbas' spokesman Nabil Abu Rudeinah strongly condemned the incident, calling it a crime against the Palestinian people.

PLO official Hanan Ashrawi strongly denounced Israel's incursion into the camp.

"Israel's use of excessive and indiscriminate violence and live ammunition in densely populated civilian areas represents a blatant violation of international and humanitarian law."

"We call on the members of the United Nations Security Council, the Quartet and the rest of the international community to take serious measures to bring an immediate end to the killing of innocent civilians and to terminate Israel’s impunity," she added.

An Israeli police spokeswoman said that border police used "riot dispersal means" to disperse a stone-throwing crowd of 1,500 people, but she could not immediately confirm any fatalities or the use of live fire.

Hamas condemns killing, calls for resistance
Picture
Hamas movement condemned the Israeli killing of three Palestinians in Qalandia refugee camp, north of occupied Jerusalem, at dawn Monday and called for allowing resistance to retaliate. Dr. Sami Abu Zuhri, a Hamas spokesman, said in a press release that resistance should be given free hand to operate in the West Bank to deter Israeli crimes against Palestinian citizens.

Hamas described the killing as “cold-blooded murder”, and lashed out at the Palestinian Authority in Ramallah for launching talks with Israel despite its repeated crimes against the Palestinian people.

For its part, the Hamas-affiliated change and reform parliamentary bloc called on the Palestinian people in the West Bank to revolt against occupation and its agents.

The bloc mourned the death of the three Palestinians in a statement on Monday and charged that the massacre came at a time the PA was launching “humiliating” negotiations with the Israeli occupation.

It said that the PA security coordination with Israel had facilitated the “cowardly act”.

Meanwhile, thousands of angry Palestinians walked in the funeral procession of the three young men who were killed in the Israeli army raid on the refugee camp.

Special sources told the PIC that undercover Israeli soldiers broke into the house of a citizen and tried to arrest him but neighbors and inhabitants confronted the attempt.

They said that Israeli military reinforcements rushed to help the undercover soldiers out of the house and fired heavily at the civilians killing three and wounding 27 others five of whom suffered serious injuries.

PA calls for inquiry into Qalandia killings
Picture
The Palestinian Authority on Monday called for the formation of an international committee to investigate the killing of three Palestinians in Qalandia refugee camp.

PA spokesman Ihab Bsaiso told Ma'an that the international community has to put more pressure on Israel to stop violating the rights of the Palestinian people.

"The international community should not stay silent about the Israeli crimes against our people, and an inquiry committee should be formatted to investigate what happened in Qalandia refugee camp," the PA official said.

The Israeli government acts in a reckless manner without accountability, and the international community must take a strict position to stop these violations, Bsaiso said.

Israel has proved once again that it is not interested in the peace process, he added.

The Fatah movement in Jerusalem and Ramallah announced three days of morning for the three victims, calling on Palestinians to participate in the funeral processions in Qalandia refugee camp.

Israeli undercover forces killed three Palestinians overnight Sunday and injured at least 15 people during an arrest raid in Qalandia refugee camp.

Robin al-Abed, 32, was shot in the chest and died instantly, medics said. Younis Jihad Abu al-Sheikh Jahjouh, 22, was also shot dead.

Jihad Asslan, 20, died Monday morning from his injuries after being pronounced brain dead at a Ramallah hospital.

Qalandia Refugee Camp this morning
Israeli forces kill 3 Palestinians in Qalandia camp

Israeli undercover forces killed three Palestinians overnight Sunday in Qalandia refugee camp in Ramallah, locals said.

Robin al-Abed, 32, was shot in the chest and died instantly, medics said. Younis Jihad Abu al-Sheikh Jahjouh, 22, was also shot dead.

Jihad Asslan, 20, died Monday morning from his injuries after being pronounced brain dead at a Ramallah hospital.

At least 15 Palestinians were injured by live fire, with six said to be in a critical condition.

Witnesses told Ma'an that Israeli forces raided the camp and arrested a recently released prisoner who had spent 10 years in jail.

Dozens of camp residents quickly surrounded Israeli forces, who opened fire.

Another Israeli military patrol then entered the camp.

An Israeli army spokeswoman did not return calls seeking comment.

WATCH: Soldiers open fire on stone-throwers in Qalandia, three killed

Three Palestinians, including one man released in the Shalit prisoner exchange, were shot to death by IDF forces this morning in Qalandia refugee camp, near Ramallah.

The incident began when plainclothes soldiers who entered the camp to carry out arrests were exposed by local residents. According to reports in the Israeli media, after being attacked with stones and rocks, the soldiers used live ammunition to rescue themselves out of the refugee camp. Rubin al-Abed, 32, Yunis Jahjuh, 22 and Jihad Aslan, 20, died from the shooting. Palestinian sources are reporting at least another 15 wounded.

13 Palestinians have been killed this year from IDF fire in the West Bank.

UPDATE: The Palestinian Authority canceled the next negotiation meeting with Israel following the events in Qalandia.
Here are three clips from the events this morning. In the upper video you can see a couple of armed vehicles attacked with stones. The shots are clearly heard in the bottom videos.

Punishing Killers of Protesters should be applied to all
Picture
I believe it is a good idea for the US and other world countries to immediately stop aid to any country that shoots civilian demonstrators.

This principle should be applied without exception.

Double standards should not be tolerated when dealing with soldiers causing fatalities when confronting civilian demonstrators.

While this principle is being discussed in regard to the use of force by the Egyptian security forces, there has never been any discussion about using the same punishment against Israel, which has killed many unarmed Palestinian demonstrators.

UN resolutions allow for resistance, including armed resistance, to a foreign military occupation.

Comparing the actions of the Egyptian security forces to the Israelis is unfair to the Egyptians. The Egyptians were accused of using excessive force in breaking up the Rabaa and Nahda sit-ins. But what about the Israelis?

Amnesty International said the Israeli army used excessive force. In its report about the year 2012, a relatively quiet year in terms of Palestinian victims, this is what Amnesty International said: "Israeli forces used live fire and other excessive force against Palestinian demonstrators in the West Bank and protesters at the Lebanese and Syrian borders, and to enforce the 'exclusion zone' within Gaza and along its coast. They killed 55 Palestinian civilians in the OPT, including 11 children. Among them were 22 civilians, including nine children, killed by Israeli fire in Gaza's land and sea restricted areas. The army initiated internal investigations into some of these incidents, but these were not independent or transparent."

The interim Egyptian government was chastised for ordering one-month emergency regulations while Palestinians have been living under occupation and emergency regulations for over 60 years.

The new Egyptian government was attacked for its denial of freedom of expression by closing down pro-Muslim Brotherhood satellite TV stations accused by the Egyptians of inciting to violence.

Amnesty International says the Knesset, Israel's parliament, passed laws restricting freedom of expression and association, including one which made it an offence to advocate a boycott of Israeli individuals or institutions in Israel or Israeli settlements in the West Bank.

Another penalises commemoration by institutions or municipalities of the Nakbeh (catastrophe), a term used by Palestinians to describe their dispossession in 1948.

The New York-based Committee to Protect Journalists reported that a record 232 Palestinian journalists were arrested in 2013 and that 12 were killed since 1992, and one murdered with impunity.

A report by the Vienna-based International Press Institute stated that Palestinian journalists from Gaza and the West Bank are not allowed freedom of movement b
y the Israeli authorities who do not officially recognise the existence of the Palestinian media and only recognise Palestinian journalists working for foreign media.

The concept that media is used to incite violence has been a major Israeli and pro Israeli crusade against Palestinians, while the latter's media and textbooks even after independent reports showed, clearly that Palestinian media and text books lacked any blatant Palestinian incitement to violence.

The same cannot be said of some of the pro-Islamist Egyptian TV stations and speakers who were inciting to violence; public buildings, religious institutions and private property were attacked indiscriminately.

The Israeli and Egyptian situations are totally different and must not be compared in any form.

Nevertheless, it is possible to look at the attitude of the defenders of human rights and freedoms when it comes to excessive use of force, media restrictions and use of emergency regulations.

When the US, Europe and other countries apply the same standards to Israel and Egypt consistently, people will take that position much more seriously.

Thousands marched in the funeral procession of Majd Lahlouh in Jenin afternoon Tuesday and demanded revenge for his murder at the hands of Israeli occupation forces. The PIC reporter said that angry participants carried the body from the hospital to the graveyard in Jenin refugee camp amidst massive participation in the procession.

Former minister of prisoners Wasfi Qabaha told the PIC reporter that the Israeli crime at dawn Tuesday carried a clear message to the Palestinian Authority mainly that Israel does not believe in peace.

He said that the PA should learn the lesson and give up talks with Israel and return to its people and complete the national reconciliation.

IOF soldiers stormed the camp at dawn Tuesday and used Dumdum bullets against young protestors killing Lahlouh, 22, and seriously wounding two others.
