Palestinian fighters destroyed 7 israeli armored vehicles. You can see many of them immobile, and pinned down in this video. Today marks a new era for the Palestinian fighters of Jenin, as they employ fresh tactics against israeli attacks. The use of IEDs on the battlefield hasn’t been seen since the 2nd Intifada.

    I hate how the term “regular assault” is used. Why is that a regular thing a modern nation does? We are watching a genocide take place in Israel and most of the world ignores it.

    I think it’s probably premature to call this the beginning of a new era. The Palestinians have been fighting Israel since 1965 … and 50 years later they’ve achieved absolutely nothing. Palestinians are no closer to having a homeland and the Israelis continue to build settlements in defiance of world opinion. Worse,l the Israelis charm offensive has actually brought some Arab states on to their side.

    There is no military solution to this for the Palestinians. The best they can do is to deny security to the Israelis … but at what cost? A generation of Palestinian children have grown up knowing nothing but occupation. It’s time to admit that the military strategy has been a collosal failure. This fight can only be won by being smarter, and the first step is renouncing violence and focusing on a PR campaign to move public opinion inside and outside Israel.

    Good on them, but religious nationalism in all forms should be abolished.
