Wounded children and young men are left to bleed to death. Ambulances are shot at, and their drivers are killed. The colonisers, backed by the army, are impoverishing and starving the population of the rural areas, preventing the population from harvesting their olive crops. They have uprooted 23,465 fruit trees so far. Greenhouses have been destroyed by bulldozers and homes have been razed, leaving whole families with no shelter under the barren cold skies.
Schools are closed, and classes are held in tents, without desks or chairs.
Many of these settlers have been found guilty of killing Palestinian children and other innocent bystanders in cold blood. They are the perpetrators of the assassination attempts on the mayors of Nablus, Ramallah and Al-Bireh. These two armies are perpetrating the most horrendous collective crimes imaginable against Palestinian cities, towns and villages, as well as the refugee camps where the victims of Israeli attacks in 1948 live today. This is an apartheid regime. The generals of the official Israeli army are united with the settler army.
