New footage shows Palestinian residents and Palestinian Red Crescent teams helping Israeli settlers injured in a car accident in which Israeli settler Yehuda Sherman died in the village of Beit Imrin in the West Bank. Israeli settlers and ministers in the Israeli government falsely labeled it a “murder” and incited pogroms against Palestinian villages.
The Israeli army tortured a one-year-old child to pressure his father into making confessions. The young man, Osama Abu Nassar, suffered psychological trauma after the death of the horse he relied on to provide income for his family. He had been receiving therapy sessions in recent days due to changes in his behavior. Two days ago, he took his one-and-a-half-year-old child to buy some necessities, but found himself accidentally caught under gunfire from the Israeli army because his home is near the eastern border of Al-Maghazi. A quadcopter forced him to leave his child on the ground and move toward an Israeli checkpoint, where he was stripped of his clothes. According to testimonies from residents who witnessed the incident and informed his family, the army later took the child and interrogated the father at the checkpoint. They began torturing the child in front of his father to pressure him into making confessions. According to the medical report, the army tortured the child, Karim, by extinguishing cigarettes on his leg, pricking him, and inserting a metal nail into his leg. The child was released after 10 hours of detention and torture and was handed over to his family through the Red Cross in Al-Maghazi market, while the father remains detained.
Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich: The Litani River should be the border between us and Lebanon. Just as we control 55% of the Gaza Strip, we should do the same in Lebanon.
Utterly unacceptable repellent and disgraceful. The israeli gvt must protect palestinians and stop these jewish terrorists now. This cant go on
I have serious problems with the term “settler violence.” It is a generalization that demonizes a community of 500,000 people - almost all of them are good, law-abiding citizens. But we cannot let that defense blind us. What has been happening in the West Bank - like the attacks by Jewish extremists in some 20 locations last night - is an abomination. These actions are anti-Jewish, they are the antithesis of what it means to be Israeli, and they must be stopped with the most aggressive steps law enforcement has at its disposal. Beyond the moral rot, this is a strategic liability. Israel is in a war against Iran and we have a rare moment to unite a global coalition from the US to Europe to the Gulf, but that support is undermined when these attacks occur. @netanyahu knows this and for that reason he went to the IDF Central Command on Friday to try and stop the violence in the middle of a war that needs to be his sole focus. What these attackers are doing is not just criminal; it is a threat to our national security. We cannot defeat our enemies abroad while a violent fringe undermines our legitimacy from within.

The most definitive White House statement purporting to justify the Israel-US war on Iran was its March 2, 2026 statement entitled "The Iranian Regime's Decades of Terrorism against American Citizens". whitehouse.gov/articles/2026/… After a brief editorial opening, the article lists 44 incidents with a total of 992 US deaths. The source of the data wasn't given. Where did it come from? Unlike the Iraq war or the Russia collusion allegation, the reporting didn't come from an intelligence assessment, flawed or otherwise. It turns out that the list was plagiarized by the White House from a June 19, 2025 list (fdd.org/analysis/2025/…) prepared by a former AIPAC employee (Tzvi Kahn) for a think tank (FDD) founded "to provide education to enhance Israel's image in North America". The think tank's original identity was "EMET (Hebrew for 'truth')". The June 19, 2025 publication was literally on the eve of the first US bombing of Iran on June 21, 2025. In this thread, I'll compare each and every item in the White House statement to the corresponding item in the original list by the former AIPAC employee. The list is virtually identical. Any slight changes are always in the change of ratcheting up the underlying allegation.
