Bethlehem cancels Christmas, so Israel attacks them.

Christmas Day in Bethlehem, the birthplace of Christ was one of attacks by Israel and a sermon heard around the world. Right, so where else other than the birthplace of Jesus for Israel to bomb on Christmas Day then? They literally targeted Bethlehem, which, for the record is an occupied city these days not in Gaza, but in the West Bank, so for the record anyone saying but do you condemn Hamas? What about Hamas, or any derivatives thereof, there is no Hamas in the West Bank, so go on, get your excuses out now. Bethlehem was just one such place in the West Bank deliberately targeted on Christmas day, deliberately attacking Christians on their holy day, the most holy day in the Christian calendar, so again I say this isn’t even about religion which Israel love to hide behind, it is about Zionism, that political ideology being used to wipe others out, conflated with religion as it is and whilst all this was happening Netanyahu was wishing all we Christians a Happy Christmas. Well not in a little town called Bethlehem it wasn’t. Nor in Jenin, nor in Nablus. But a Christmas message on that day was still delivered in Bethlehem even if all celebrations were cancelled, one of the most powerful I’ve ever heard. A message of defiance that the whole world needs to hear. Right, so Christmas day in Bethlehem, the birthplace of Christ, in the occupied West Bank as it is, being targeted on Christmas Day, you can’t say was not deliberate. The day started with an attack on a refugee camp, because that’s how the cowards of the IDF roll, target those with the least, those most unable to resist and the refugee camp at Jenin was targeted, resulting in arrests. Bethlehem was targeted, Nablus was targeted, Jericho targeted, Ramallah targeted, dozens were arrested by the end of the day and a 17 year old boy was shot in the neck. Injured only, not killed fortunately though. Still, happy f**king Christmas. Jenin is the most raided place in the West Bank, seen as a symbol of resistance and we can’t have that can we? We’re only targeting Hamas say Israel, which makes the 303 West Bank Palestinians killed since October 7th an epic example of Israeli misfires I suppose? You’re aim is worse than a Star Wars Stormtrooper is that it? If Hamas are your targets, why are you attacking the West Bank? But of course it is what they always do. Patrols go in daily, in total control as Israel is. They raid homes in the night for something to do. There are documented cases of arrests of completely innocent Palestinians there, done as training exercises. It’s abuse, but the level of atrocity seen there of Christmas Day and the targeting of Bethlehem, who had cancelled Christmas celebrations due to Israel’s actions was absolutely deliberate. On Christmas Eve Netanyahu had the gall to assign another $21m to more settlements in the West Bank. They are illegal, they are a violation of international law, but Israel in doing this as they have so many times before remind us they are above that law, and the US, who send so much of this money to fund settlements by various means, not just government support, use their veto at the Security Council to keep them above international law. ***Subscribe to the channel here*** ►ABOUT ME: Hi, I’m Damien Willey.
