Nine homes, five tents and five animal pens were demolished, said Mohammed Rabia, head of the village council in the area.

COGAT, the Israeli military body responsible for administrative affairs in the occupied West Bank, said it demolished the buildings because they were built illegally in an area designated as a closed firing zone.

Palestinians have long said that securing Israeli permission to build in the West Bank is nearly impossible.

      Another way to look at it is that Kamala would rather lose than stop supporting this.

        these comment and bringing her up in every other post is an attempt to divert conversation from the main issue.

        1. this is a genocide.
        2. this is in the west bank.

            Yeah, it would’ve been great if the Democratic Party did fight against fascism taking over instead of prioritizing material support for the genocide.

        She didn’t support this. That’s not the same thing as magically stopping it, though. Trump does support this.

          Jesus Christ man. Very few people have any real power to make a difference in this genocide, and she was one of them.

            Do you not know what the Vice President does? It’s a ceremonial position. Harris couldn’t do shit unless people actually voted for her.

            She had no power to do anything, and people like you made sure she never would.

              Homie, she was campaigning for president. That is a position where people tend to make their positions loud and clear. Not only is the electorate listening, but absolutely other world leaders are paying attention.

              She ran for President and could have announced her withdrawl of support for Israel during the election. She chose not to and that’s on her.
