Title: People need help to go to Gaza/West bank!
Post by Grappler Truth Teller Feller on Sep 7th, 2024 at 11:25pm
Here is an excellent reason to help all our homegrown protestors go to Gaza and the West Bank to support their Arab mates:-

"The White House says it is "deeply disturbed" after an American activist was shot dead, reportedly by Israeli soldiers, during a protest in the occupied West Bank.

Protesters say Ayşenur Ezgi Eygi was shot in the head in a village in the northern West Bank on Friday, local time.

She was taking part in a demonstration against the establishment of a nearby Jewish settlement — one of many considered illegal under international law.

The 26-year-old was from Seattle and had recently graduated from the University of Washington. She was born in Türkiye and held dual US-Turkish citizenship.

The Turkish foreign ministry called her death a "murder committed by the Netanyahu government".

White House national security spokesman Sean Savett said the US had asked Israel to investigate and provide more information.
"We are deeply disturbed by the tragic death of an American citizen, Ayşenur Ezgi Eygi, today in the West Bank and our hearts go out to her family and loved ones," he said.

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said its troops had fired towards a protester who was throwing rocks.

"The forces responded with fire toward a main instigator of violent activity who hurled rocks at the forces and posed a threat to them," an IDF spokesperson told the ABC......

.... "Another ISM volunteer, Mariam Dag, also said she saw an Israeli soldier on a rooftop. She heard two gunshots and saw Ms Eygi had been shot in the head. "


Not bad shooting.... head shot in one... guess we're gonna need a bigger Go Fund Me for all them activists camped outside unis and such, so they can get into the fight.

Do I feel sorry for her family? Not at all.... but I suppose nobody expects to go out to a violent demo in a war zone and not come home, eh?
