Today the whole world watches, in shock and disgust, the escalation and acceleration of decades-old abusive practices and crimes inflicted on the Palestinians -by the state of Israel, its army and ideological settlers.
With absolute impunity granted by "the west".
This must end.

The murderer remains free, continuing to torment the village’s residents — all under the protection of the judicial system and the occupation forces. This is the face of occupation, apartheid, and ethnic cleansing — the face of human ugliness.
