The embattled village of Nabi Saleh saw a resumption of night raids last night. The house of imprisoned popular committee leader Bassem Tamimi was raided by Israeli soldiers at 02:00 this morning, according to Palestinian activist @Tweet_Palestine on Twitter. Sometimes a picture is worth a thousand words.

@Sam You wrote “Israel, at a great risk to the safety and security of its soldiers, does individual house to house searches for terrorists and weapons, so as not to kill innocent people while trying to protect their own civilians. Kudos to Israel for having one of the most humane armies in the world.”
This is ridiculous. There is only one sort of nations which do nightly searches and arrest. Democracies which are worth beeing labeled this way do their searches by police and during the day. To break into houses in the middle of the night is always tantamount to terrorise people – deliberately.

I take issue with SCHLESINGER’s “There is only one sort of nations which do nightly searches and arrest.”
Obviously this person has never been to Philadelphia.

EDITHANN check your ears. I never qualified the testimony of a 14 year old as any particular anything. He does meet the basic characteristics of many suicide bombers from the West Bank. This is not debatable. I’m surprised at your lack of compassion.
AYLA – It isn’t clear why Lisa and Harvey aren’t commenting. Thanks for the ‘garbage’ put down. Thanks a lot.
