The PA (Palestinian Authority) has declared Tuesday, November 26, 2019, ‘Rage Day’ throughout Yehuda and Shomron in response to the United State’s recent policy change, announcing it now view yishuvim, ‘settlements throughout Yehuda and Shomron are no longer inconsistent with international law’, as was the case in the past.
Drivers are warned they may encounter rock-throwing and the burning of tires placed in roadways. PA residents are planning to protest at the Chawarah Checkpoint near Tapuach Junction in Shomron, in Hebron and the surrounding areas, the Ramallah area near Focus Checkpoint and other key areas, aimed at maximizing the impact of the day.
In another step towards maximizing the day, all public schools in the PA are being closed at 11:30AM. In addition, a number of professional organizations announced the workday on Tuesday will end about the same time, to permit everyone to take part in the protests.
US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo’s announcement repudiates a 1978 State Department legal opinion that held that civilian settlements in the occupied territories are “inconsistent with international law.”

They may yell all they like on their side of the border. But the moment they place any risk on the lives of anyone on the Israeli side, those perpetrators should be eliminated by whatever is the least expensive form of lethal force. If they have zero value for our lives, they do not deserve that others should hold their safety of lives dear either. Israel must stop this collateral civilian damage limiting that prohibits them from proper defense.
These subhuman creatures have long passed the point where these protests are expected to impress anyone that they take a different position. It is clear that the label “protest” is code for excused violence, and that they wish to cause harm to Israel, its military, and its civilians. For that, defense cannot be kind. It must exterminate those who are sworn to Israel’s destruction.
The only good terrorist is a dead one. I’d like to hear about many good ones.
Always amazes me how no one in the world sees these things for what they are. You can’t prepare a “rage day”. Rage by definition in spontaneous. It’s a סתירה מיניה וביה. This is obvious but the entire world goes with it. Crazy
