Clear footage has surfaced of Israel's deliberate murder of two Palestinians near the east Gaza border. The video shows Israeli snipers shooting and wounding the two men before artillery shells targeted and killed them instantly. The two men have been identified as Ismail Abu Amsha (a farmer), and Sari Abu Oda.
This morning, we ran an ad with the names of the 35 Palestinian protestors shot and killed by Israeli forces while demonstrating along the Gaza fence. They were shot in compliance with manifestly illegal orders for which the government and the senior military command are primarily responsible. Another 1,500+ demonstrators were injured by live fire. Both issuing and obeying such orders is forbidden.
Shooting at civilians who pose no mortal danger is manifestly illegal. Use of lethal force is permitted only when there is a clear and present danger to life and only as a last resort.
