2 Palestinians Killed, 102 Injured, 8 Abducted by Israeli Occupation Forces, Illegal Settlers Steal Olive Harvest

November 3, 2019 

Editor's Note:

While brutal force has been used to create Zionist Israel and sustain it thus far, Zionist claims to Palestine are false. Actually, from the five thousand years of known written history, there has been a continuous Palestinian-Canaanite presence in the Holy Land. Despite the Zionist false claims, the ancient Israelites ruled part of the land for only 85 years (during the reign of David, Solomon, and Solomon's son).

 After that, the Egyptians conquered Palestine-Canaan in 925 BC, followed by Assyrians, Babylonians, Persians, Greeks, and Romans, before the Arab Muslim rule, starting from 636 AD.

By the Time Jesus started his mission, the three population groups of Canaanites, Palestinians, and Israelites were melted together in religion and language. Most of them became Christians when Constantine converted in 313 AD. Then, most of them became Muslims in the 7th and 8th centuries AD.

So, Palestinian Muslims, Christians, and Jews are the ones who have the right to claim descent from ancient Israelites, Palestinians, and Canaanites, not Zionists from other continents.

The following news stories are just examples of the Israeli occupation government violations of Palestinian human rights, on daily basis.

November 3, 2019 12:56 PM IMEMC News

Updated: The Israeli Minister of Jerusalem Fadi al-Hadmi, was one of eight Palestinians abducted by Israeli forces in pre-dawn raids on Sunday.

Israeli occupation soldiers stormed the neighborhood of Suwwana, in occupied Jerusalem, and abducted Fadi al-Hadmi, a Palestinian community leader who is a member of the Palestinian government that has worked through non-violent means to assert their sovereignty in the city.

While invading al-Hadmi’s home Sunday before dawn, eyewitnesses reported that the soldiers beat, humiliated and brutalized the government minister in front of his family and children before dragging him away.

This is the third time that al-Hadmi has been singled out for arrest by Israeli authorities, who claim they have the jurisdiction to arrest Palestinians in the city of Jerusalem – in violation of international law and the Fourth Geneva Convention regarding the rights of occupying powers.

In addition to abducting him, the Israeli authorities have also summoned him for interrogation on at least 12 occasions.

Adnan Ghaith, the Palestinian Governor of Jerusalem, is also frequently abducted by Israeli forces for the ‘crime’ of carrying out Palestinian governmental meetings and activities. Israeli forces justify these abductions of government ministers by claiming that Palestinians have no right to govern in Jerusalem.

In Jerusalem’s Old City, the soldiers also invaded and searched homes and abducted three young Wisam Seder, Yousef al-Hilu and  Razaz ar-Razem.

In the area of Khallet Hadour in Hebron, in the southern West Bank, Israeli troops abducted Mo’men Abu Shamsiya and Ahmad Al-Yamani.

The Israeli forces also abducted Daoud Zakaria Mousa after they raided his family’s house and searched it in Al-Khader village south of Bethlehem.
