Video shows Israeli forces shooting Palestinians dead moments after surrender

This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by Emile (a host of the Latest Breaking News forum).

Video of an Israeli military raid in the West Bank shows soldiers summarily executing two Palestinians they had detained seconds earlier.

The shooting on Thursday evening, which was also witnessed by journalists close to the scene, is under justice ministry review, but has already been defended by Israel’s far-right minister Itamar Ben-Gvir, who declared that “terrorists must die”.

Uniformed men, identified in Israeli media as officers of Israel’s border police, then approach them. One officer, who is not wearing a helmet and is bald-headed and bearded, appears to take charge. He kicks the men while they are on the ground and then can be seen ordering the detainees back into the building under the damaged door.

A few seconds later, as the two victims are crawling away from their captors and have reached the threshold of the building, the five border police officers visible at the scene raise their assault rifles, and the two detainees slump to the ground.

While these murders are officially sanctioned by the Israeli government, on Palestinian land. trump's, "peace plan," was worthless--another publicity stunt. Funny how any negotiations he's involved with always overwhelming favor the aggressive country.

I'm all for Israel clearing out Hamas, but that was blatant murder. Those Soldiers need to be prosecuted.

Sickening to hear Jared Kushner opine about building condos on Palestinian land.

Then there's trump with genocidal aspirations-

The president repeatedly doubled down on his suggestion that nearly 2 million Palestinians should be relocated from battle-leveled Gaza to new homes elsewhere so that the US could send troops to the Strip, take ownership and build the “Riviera of the Middle East.”


Yes it's genocide...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genocide
The concept of genocide was invented by Polish-Jewish lawyer Raphael Lemkin in the early 1940s; Lemkin viewed it broadly as the replacement of the victims' culture with that of their oppressor. Lemkin lobbied for genocide to be outlawed by an international treaty, but the Genocide Convention restricted the definition of genocide to five specific acts "committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group, as such".[1] Its definition remains contested by scholars and institutions across international law, history, sociology and related fields.
