Israeli soldiers execute 4 members of family in car in West Bank - Lemmy

RAMALLAH, West Bank — Israeli soldiers fired on a car carrying a family in the northern West Bank, killing four people including two children, the Palestinian Authority’s Health Ministry said. The official Palestinian news agency said the family was shot late Saturday after going out to buy new clothes for the coming Eid al-Fitr holiday. Israel said it was investigating the shooting. The Palestinian Red Crescent rescue service said that Ali and Waed Odeh, and two of their four children, were shot in the head. The Odehs’ two surviving children had shrapnel wounds that were examined by first responders once they were granted access, the group said, accusing Israel of delaying ambulances dispatched to the scene.

The children were five and seven years old. The seven year old was a blind special needs child. The surviving two children, the oldest of which is eleven, had to watch their parents and brothers get liked before being pulled out of the car and beaten and taunted by the attackers. They also prevented ambulances from reaching the scene.

Can this please be the final straw at last? How can any country continue to stand by and support this racist regime.
