And once again, of course, the army - via "unnamed" sources and Israeli media - spread disinformation, this time about the killing of 14-year-old Sadil.
Compare this perfunctory obfuscation with the eyewitness documentation.

West Bank is witnessing huge-scale settlement expansion, escalating settler violence, & military crackdown by Israeli occupation forces. What unites all three elements is this Israeli gov't's determination to achieve irreversible annexation.

The Israeli army has today revealed what action it will take against the soldier who shot & killed 2-year-old Muhammad in Nabi Saleh.
None. Nothing.
In addition, the 'findings' represent yet a further twist in an all too familiar story of impunity...

The ever-changing claims shared by "military sources" or army spokespersons were supplemented by various disinformation actors, who all said Muhammad was 'tragically' hit in 'crossfire' (something now contradicted by the army’s own latest version of events released today).

The Israeli gov't, as an official policy, seeks to "Judaise" (its language) the Galilee.
You see, there are 'too many' Palestinian citizens there, vs. Jewish ones.
How would this kind of politics be viewed elsewhere?
Institutionalised racism is escalating - but isn't new.
