Nakba Violence Escalates As Many Dead On Isreal Borders With Syria, Lebanon And Gaza
Not all headlines today are about the sexual indignities of the IMF head. While the world is eagerly awaiting yet another photo that may or may not be released, in the form of the Dominique Strauss-Kahn mugshot, a surge in violence along Israel's three borders with Syria, Lebanon and Gaza, has left at last 10 dead and dozens wounded as Palestinians marked what they term Nakba, or "the catastrophe" of Israel's founding in 1948. Reuters reports that "Israeli troops shot at protesters in three
separate locations to prevent crowds from crossing Israeli frontier
lines in the deadliest such confrontation in years. Israeli and Syrian media reports said Israeli gunfire killed four people after dozens of Palestinian refugees infiltrated the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights from Syria, along a disputed border that has been quiet for decades." A subsequent update from Reuters states that "more than 100 people had been wounded in the shooting incident in the border village of Maroun al-Ras." Prime Minister Netanyahu issued a stern warning: "We hope the calm and quiet will quickly return,
but let nobody be mistaken, we are determined to defend our borders and
sovereignty." Alas, it appears that this latest bout of regional violence will only escalate and that quite rapidly: "In Tel Aviv, Israel's commercial hub, a truck driven by an Arab Israeli slammed into vehicles and pedestrians, killing one man and injuring 17 people." The only remaining wild card at this point is Iran: should Tehran join in, then all bets will be off. Also, CL traders can't hardly wait the arrival of another record vol day as soon as electronic trading opens later in the day.
From Reuters:
Israeli security forces had been on alert for violence on Sunday, the day Palestinians mark the "Nakba," or catastrophe, of Israel's founding in a 1948 war, when hundreds of thousands of their brethren fled or were forced to leave their homes.
In the Druze village of Majdal Shams, on the Golan Heights captured by Israel from Syria in 1967, Mayor Dolan Abu Salah said between 40 and 50 Nakba demonstrators from Syria tore through the frontier fence.
Hundreds of protesters flooded the lush green valley that marks the border area, waving Palestinian flags. Israeli troops attempted to mend the breached fence, firing at what the army described as infiltrators.
"We are seeing here an Iranian provocation, on both the Syrian and the Lebanese frontiers, to try to exploit the Nakba day commemorations," said the army's chief spokesman, Lieutenant-Colonel Yoav Mordechai.
Syria is home to 470,000 Palestinian refugees and its leadership, now facing fierce internal unrest, had in previous years prevented protesters from reaching the frontier fence.
"This appears to be a cynical and transparent act by the Syrian leadership to deliberately create a crisis on the border so as to distract attention from the very real problems that regime is facing at home," said a senior Israeli government official who declined to be named.
In a Nakba protest in the occupied West Bank, Palestinian youths threw rocks at Israeli soldiers, who fired tear gas and rubber bullets in a clash at the Israeli military checkpoint outside the city of Ramallah -- a constant flashpoint.
A Palestinian teenager was shot dead during protests in Jerusalem on Friday. Police said it was unclear who had shot him and they were investigating.
From Jerusalem Post:
UN peacekeepers in southern Lebanon (UNIFIL) urged the parties involved in a shooting incident on Sunday at the Lebanese-Israeli border to show "maximum restraint" to prevent casualties.
Spokesman Andrea Tenenti said UNIFIL was in contact with the Lebanese army and the Israeli military. Security sources said four people had been killed after Israeli forces fired in the air to repel Palestinians demonstrating at Maroun a-Ras on the border.
"Hundreds of Lebanese and Palestinians approached the fence at Maroun a-Ras. The Lebanese army did not stop them. When IDF saw them attempting to destroy the fence, they took steps to stop them," Brig.-Gen. Yoav "Poli" Mordechai told Channel 10 News.
Also on Sunday, several dozen pro-Palestinian protesters crossed the Syrian border into the Golan Heights, an act Mordechai called "an Iranian provocation." Sources reported between two to four Syrians dead and 10-20 people injured in those ensuing clashes.

People have hated Jews before there was an Israel or occupied territories or Rothschilds
Because the Talmud creates monsters. That is all there is to it. Judaism is not a religion, it is organized crime.
The Talmud creates success. Jewish success breed fear and hatred. What's the matter? Afraid that Jewish values are better than yours?
Zionism has values? I mean, apart from stealing other people's land and slaughtering them when they try to assert their property rights?
Jewish success existed long before 1948.
Jews were a majority of the population in the part portioned to Israel.
Re. Jewish success breed fear and hatred.
Oh no, not the Maestro Story again!?!
All the while the economy zoomed by robbing from the future and the Jews called the shots, they were exceptional. Jews were on ZH claiming Supremacy for their big heads. Right Gashole? Was that you back then?
When it all blows up, what are they? Incompetent or conniving?
Your definition of success is the same as Tony Soprano's.
People are gonna react to that when they see what's been going on and they're having a hard time getting enough calories for them and theirs.
G_D owns that land.. it shall NOT BE SOLD!
Leviticus 25:23
"The land shall not be sold for ever: for the land is MINE; for ye are strangers and sojourners with me."
also..
Former Jihadic terrorist, Wahlid Shoebat, also agrees.. the land is for the Jews.. from G_D!
Jewish values:
1. Neptoism
2. Cult of victimhood
3. Usury
4. Hording
5. Social degredation
6. Ethnic cleansing
may you enjoy your own personal Nakba day. And many more.
For how long have they supported Apartheid?
is there anything not linked to rothschild or r ?
you guys are sad
how about bush and the saudi , or jfk?
Ya I know. It's just so wierd that you can pinpoint things since we live in a world of competing currencies and culteral customs and it's so diverse.
Bahhhhh.
well that was a crushing argument
The problem with centralization is eventually people learn geometry and vectors and where to actually start pointing their fingers instead of off into the deflected blame zone.
That's good Heph. When it all flows one way, you see where it is going.
Looks as if Israel will counterattack those protesting invaders.

nnakba day (catastrophe). They celebrate on Israeli independence day. Their history is a catastrophe- from not accepting partition in 1947 like the Jews did, to attacking Israel in 1948, For refusing full peace post 1967 in return for the captured territories. Turning down the deal @ Taba in 2000, electing HAMAS. Rebuffing overtures by Olmert in 2006, etc. etc. Their history is a catastrophe. It is a perversion to memorialize it on Israeli independence day and blame the Jews for all of their suffering
Right... they should have just bent over and let the zionists (most of whom were actually a bunch of Europeans, ethnically and culturally) take their land.
Re. Europeans See Khazaria. It is not a slur. Just the fact.
Look at the Israeli economy: wealthy and modern. Look at the rest of the Middle East with few exceptions: governed by oppression and/or the finest minds of the 9th century. These miserable governments take a nation's oil wealth and arm groups in other countries instead of helping their own people.
This can only happen if governments can focus the despair they create towards hating Jews as a substitute for making meaningful political reform that gives people a say, and economic reform that provides opportunities.
A close examination of the catastrophe isn't easy under constant brainwashing, but to blame Jews for the backwardness and unemplyment of many middle eastern economies is like a child looking for the bogeyman under his bed.
The problem is staring everyone right in the face. Governments in the Middle East exploit their people, their wealth, and their fears. These poor people can do something about this... accept the truth of their situation.
Israel was built by White Americans and White Germans. Without our continued aid the Jews there would starve to death.
Yeah, then stop taking our tax money you welfare queens. You are a modern society by robbing everyone else like the leeches you are.
This is hilarious! That Avgidor Lieberman is a real paragon of democracy, isn't he?
Apartheid Israel is a fascist state run by an openly genocidal ruling clique of corrupt goons.
Zionists terrorists were ransacking Palestine for many, many years prior to 1947 with the assent of the imperialist powers who put them there in the first place.
Why does Apartheid Israel celebrate "Independence Day" when their whole history is due to White Imperialism and the UN?
At least their legacy of being bloodthirsty baby-killers is alive and well! Perhaps it's all that working hand-in-hand with the Nazis by Zionists that explains it all...
