‘Total outrage’: White House condemns Israeli settlers’ attack on Gaza aid trucks

Video of the incident on Monday at Tarqumiya checkpoint, west of Hebron in the Israeli-occupied West Bank, showed settlers blocking the trucks and throwing boxes of much-needed supplies on the ground. Photographs from the scene showed piles of damaged aid packages and drifts of rice and flour across the road.

Late on Monday, photos began circulating on social media showing the trucks on fire.

I know these are empty words for now, but is the US position on Palestine finally changing? I couldn’t imagine even seeing this headline a few months ago.

gmtom ,

Yes, the US is already halting offensive weapon shipments to Isreal.

formergijoe ,

Just that one shipment of bombs. Biden notified Congress he’s going to send $1 billion in arms.

Until US or IDF troops are directly accompanying and protecting these aid trucks, outrage is meaningless.

The IDF would either help these ‘settlers’ or just stand aside.

Haaretz 2017 Israeli Settlers Filmed Stealing Olive Harvest of West Bank Palestinian Farmers

Better then the recent videos of them burning Olive trees.

Oh, you’re “outraged” now?

This is not the exception to the rule, it is the rule. You can’t create a priviliged class society built on land theft and not have this be the result. Settlers have been doing this and worse to Palestinians for 60-70 years, I am glad that media is finally putting some critical lens on it. Brownshirt settlers do whatever they want and take whatever they want. If Palestinians show a hint of defiance or retaliation, the IDF comes in and slaughters them. Repeat the cycle ad infinitum.

They’ve been destroying and disrupting aid deliveries for some time. Even singing, chanting and dancing to the deed. www.youtube.com/watch?v=AVXdIVq6qrU
What’s a little death by famine, of even babies and children. They are simply doing God’s work. I’m sure God will sort it all out.

How is it that armed riflemen have time to harass Palestinians on the west bank, but not a one in sight to defend a food truck?

And with food prices the way they are, how do Isreali people have the free time to destroy food? Taxpayers in America work 2 jobs to for two boxes of that stuff.

And their taxes go to fund those rifles. America wants their rifles back.

What the fuck did you think they were going to do, White House?

Did you not get the memo that Israel said that they were going to carry on by themselves without you? It was right in the fucking open.

Dumbasses.

Tongue popping at every few atrocities is nice and all but we’re still waiting on proper sanctions. Grow a backbone, ask the college kids if you don’t know how.

‘Outrage’ aside, the actions of these religious fanatics that ‘settle’ on stolen lands is not at all new or surprising. They can be described as terrorists as much as any other group.

Trump repealed 50-year-old sanctions on Israel’s ability to settle occupied Palestinian Territories. Netanyahu was so grateful, he named a town after him.

www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-48656431

Biden restored the sanctions, making the settlements illegal again.
