Israeli police in Jerusalem shot two Palestinian teenage girls, killing one and injuring the other, after they attacked a 70-year old Palestinian man with scissors, mistaking him for an Israeli, according to Israeli police.
CCTV footage of the shooting begins with Israeli police chasing the two Palestinian teens, who police say are related. One officer then fires multiple shots at the 16-year as she backed up against a wall out of frame. A second security officer topples the 14-year old with a plastic chair. Once she is on the ground he shoots her.
Police said the unidentified Palestinian man was lightly injured in the head and hand.
The attack and subsequent shootings took place on Jaffa Street in central Jerusalem, a main shopping boulevard that connects East and West Jerusalem.
Today’s incident follows three separate attacks by Palestinians on Israelis yesterday, in which all three alleged attackers were killed. During one of the attacks in the West Bank settlement of Gush Etzion a Palestinian stabbed and killed a 20-year old Israeli woman. The Gush Etzion municipality announced today that Palestinians will no longer be permitted entry into the settlement, though a number of Palestinians are employed there.
Since October 1, 2015 at least 94 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli forces and settlers and Palestinians killed 17 Israelis in attacks, amid a wave of violence that Israeli police say shows no signs of decreasing.
That’s what happens when you stab innocent civilians with the aim of killing them. The security forces will neutralize you.
What did they expect would happen?
So sad and disgusting. They were clearly subdued and executed by cowards with guns. I don’t condone what they did because it’s so futile but then again I can’t imagine the pain they live with that compels them to effectively commit suicide
Attacking someone with scissors is an act of injustice for which the perpetrator – if s/he has not been assassinated – must be held accountable.
Summarily executing a scissors-wielding teenage girl is an act of injustice (and cowardice) for which the perpetrator must be held accountable (and shamed).
These daily street executions seem to be part of Israeli policy.Nobody seems to bat an eyelid.
F–k International Law. Screw obeying any laws of war .We are the chosen people and because of what the “Europeans” did to us , we can do as we please.
I wonder at what point the chosen people will call for an end to this .When two hundred “Jews ” have been killed or does their tolerance for the death of Jews not reach that far.My point being , that the number of Palestinians murdered is of no concern to the chosen ones so the end of this will only be called for when enough Jews have been killed or the relative lack of disruption the occupation had on their lives becomes “unbearable”.It,s always about them .They are always the victim and someone else is always at fault.

“I wonder at what point the chosen people will call for an end to this”
Unfortunately Nitay and his cohorts through their election gambit to bring on board the far right and their subsequent rhetoric have already brought the” chosen” people beyond the” point ” of no return. You are talking about hundreds of thousands if not millions of brainwashed Zionist zombies in and out of uniform who now see shooting to kill as normal behaviour if the victim is Arab/black/generally non Aryan looking and is carrying a knife,scissors,pen, or pencil and does no more than look funny or is perceived to be looking at them in a funny way.
The “never again” has become instead “yippee it`s our turn , the rest of the world doesn`t give a shit and and even if they did we don`t give a shit about the rest of the world, so let`s practice some of our very own home grown pogromising on these Palestinian squatters”.
The only hope is an enhanced BDS and a recognition by the rest of the world that the Zionist Zombie is just a variation on the ISIS one – ie they should also be monitored,tracked detained and refused entry. We already have the example of the activities of the “Jewish Defence League ” in France as a template. IMO it is very likely that Zionist Jihadists (trained in Israel) will be travelling back to Europe briefed to carry out anti – Muslim attacks (flavoured with some false flag attacks ) and Europe will need to protect itself against them in the same way as against ISIS. Far fetched ? – perhaps but then again we are talking about “the Chosen people ” here.
