"Stones" Kill. Israeli soldier murdered in the West Bank

‘You’re my only son, I have nothing,’ wept the father of murdered Israeli soldier Amit Ben-Ygal. The 21 year old was killed after being hit in the head by a rock during a raid in the village of Yabed

The young soldier was murdered just one month before the end of his service.

Palestinians and their fauxgressive apologists in the West want you to believe that "children throwing stones" looks like this.

More often, it looks like this

Speaking to reporters, Amit's father Baruch Ben-Ygal, wept “We don’t have anything else. I am broken, I am broken, I am broken, I am crushed...I don’t have words for it.”

UPDATE

Empowered by their "success," Palestinians are using social media to encourage copycat actions.

Its just children throwing stones

"It’s in the news all the time. Rock throwing. It seems trivial. But it wasn’t rocks. It wasn’t pebbles. It was giant blocks of stone, the rectangular kind that are used to build houses. And it can kill. Rocks, stones, guns, are all the same. They are weapons. They are violence. They are tools to commit murder."

A terrifying first hand encounter with Palestinian children "throwing stones'

From Erica Chernofsky, published at the Times of Israel:

... there was a loud boom. And another, and another, and then another. And I couldn’t see a thing, and I heard my children screaming, the baby crying, I looked out my window and saw the Palestinian children, and then an Israeli soldier. I fumbled for my cell phone, following the protocol I had been taught but never had to use.

I called for help. I heard my voice shaking as I tried to explain where we were, what had happened, and as I did my car’s windscreen finally came into focus, it was smashed, my legs and arms were covered in glass, my knee was burning where a shard of glass was stuck inside my skin. And then I dropped the phone, suddenly remembering my children, ohmigod my children, the baby! I climbed out of my seat to look behind me as my husband continued driving away as fast as he could.

They were screaming, my 3-year-old was crying hysterically, my 6-year-old was yelling “what happened mommy, what happened!” over and over again. And the baby, was crying, screaming, oh, he’s such a good baby and he never cries, and then I saw he was covered in millions of tiny pieces of glass. The entire back windshield of the car had smashed in, there was glass everywhere, all over my children, all over my baby. In his hair, on his face, on his little onesie. I gently tried to shake the glass off him as my hands trembled, “drive faster, quickly, quickly, we have to check the baby,” I cried to my husband, who had somehow not lost control of the car during the attack.

And then forever passed, but it was only minutes, and we had reached the entrance to Tekoa, and security surrounded us. I grabbed my kids out of the car and held the baby up, I brushed him off, I analyzed his face, he was okay, thank god he was okay, they were all okay. My son was screaming that I was bleeding, and I saw the glass in my knee and a trail of blood down my leg but felt nothing but relief.

Just some kids throwing stones

From Israel national news

Arabs attacked an Israeli vehicle Sunday with rocks, as it traveled between Tekoa, in the Etzion Bloc, and the southern Jerusalem neighborhood of Har Homa.

A married couple and their six-month-old daughter were in the car. The car's windows were badly smashed but miraculously, the parents and child were unhurt.

The father said afterward that Arabs with covered faces attacked the car not far from an IDF roadblock. One rock penetrated from the front of the car, flew over the baby's head, and struck the rear seat, where it was stopped by the baby seat.

And meanwhile, on social media, 

Some needed context

So often I hear about the Palestinians, so hungry and desperate for freedom and equality that they simply cant stop themselves from loading nails and screws soaked in rat poison into a bomb and turning themselves into a weapon. As often, I hear about the oppressed Palestinians children, acting as children do- throwing stones at their oppressors.

Here's what it looks like.



Zehava Weiss, a teacher was on her way home to to Karmei Tzur on Tuesday when she found herself the target of a rock salvo that smashed her windshield. An AFP photographer who was standing nearby captured the scene

Some context, from YNET

"This wasn't Weiss' first time in an incident of this kind.

"The Palestinians love to throw stones near that spot, and at two other sites near the village," she said. "I have lived in Karmei Tzur for eight years and I can tell you that they hurl stones almost every day.

"My heart was beating so fast after the incident, but we have to continue driving through there," she added. "What choice do we have?" "

Does this look like "non-violent resistance" to you?
