IDF kills rock-throwing yout in Beit Ummar
2008-01-27
A 17-year-old Palestinian was killed and at least 10 were wounded by IDF troops in the West Bank village of Beit Ummar, Palestinian sources said on Friday.

Eyewitnesses said that the Palestinian youth was hit after IDF troops opened fire at village residents who were hurling stones at the forces and Israeli vehicles.
Young, angry, stoopid, throwing stones at guys with rifles.
The IDF said that clashes occurred during searches in the village, which were being conducted as a follow up to Thursday's terrorist attack in a high school in Kibbutz Kfar Etzion. Palestinian sources said that IDF troops entered the village in order to conduct searches in terrorists' homes.

#5  Mexicans on their side of the fence play the same game - I'm inclined to support sniper fire back at the rockthrowers. F*ckers have hurt BP agents before and will kill one with a rock someday.

#4  They should kill enough Paleos that Paleo kids learn the lesson: throw a stone at Israeli soldiers and you die in a hailstorm of lead. If getting that lesson across takes killing them all, so be it. Dead Paleos, especially Gaza ones, are a net gain.

#2  Why the hell should the IDF take a chance that one of those "rocks" wasn't a hand grenade. Good for them.
