Mainstream media are at last humanizing Palestinians with great potential political consequences. Ali Velshi of MSNBC met the Palestinian activist Hajj Suleiman in 2019 and when Israel killed him last week, Velshi honored his resistance with a searing report describing an Israeli occupation of nearly 700,000 illegal settlers encroaching on traditional villages and destroying their bread ovens.
A 75-year-old Palestinian man from the village of Umm al-Khair in the South Hebron Hills in the occupied West Bank died on Monday, after succumbing to wounds he sustained when he was run over during an Israeli police raid last week.
