make sure the police officers are put in jail and at the same time remember that while they pulled the trigger, it was the occupation that loaded the weapon," Odeh said in a statement.The shooting comes as tensions rise in the region ahead of possible Israeli annexation of parts of the occupied West Bank. The father of Eyad Rawhi Al-Halaq mourns his son's death.

Everything going on in the USA now and this is what you are reporting?

He’s an autistic man that was going to his special needs school and was stopped by two Israeli soldiers, his only crime was being afraid of them and running away out of fear since he didn’t understand what was happening. They shot him dead while he hid behind trash cans.

It was an autistic unarmed Palestinian man. correct this.

“ Not just the city but the world!” HoodHealer

Police brutality is not just a US problem.

Police throughout the world are the same, the moment they arm themselves is the moment the devil envelopes them. From that moment they are no longer themselves, they are under the influence of satan.

If they don't mind killing children, which they don't, why are we surprised they killed an autistic man. They're heartless monsters.

Only one this time?

CHANGE THE TITLE! The senseless murder of an innocent autistic man on his way to a special needs school! Disgraceful

amsinaax terrorists. israel is a terrorist state.

There will be absolutely no reaction and protest for him as he was no human neither BLACK 🤐

Wow they have the same cops we do.

Inhuman evil land thieves

Israeli is terrorist

Call it what it is : terrorism

What has being 'unarmed' have to do with anything?.. if you get assaulted by a 'unarmed' person, and you dont shoot them, you dont get to play victim

Terrorists

Please rephrase your post. Israeli Officials shot & killed an UNARMED HANDICAP PALISTINIAN MAN.

فلسطين الشهداء🇵🇸

All these cops went to the same training camp?

israel was built through war crimes and terrorism, they always murder innocent palestinians

Hardly surprising coming from a terrorist state who is murdering Palestinians. It’s not jewish people but zionists. Its the Israeli government that is the issue. Lets make that clear. Oh an btw the victim had special needs in this particular case and was shot dead. Don’t me 🖕🏼

pettymoroccan In other news the sky is still blue

F*CK the police everywhere

Looks like we need to protest over there

Same dangerous leaders as in America right now. Scary people with no brains.

OMG! Breaking news! What a hypocrisy! Unfortunately shit like this (mistake in identifying) happens all over the world. These Jerusalem cops are attacked on a daily basis. You forget to report that though. You never breakingly report such a sad event if it happens not in Israel.

Unarmed? That means he had a rocket grenade over his shoulder.. Fake news

An unarmed, yet shot and killed. What's the world turning into

I will never visit Israel🤷🏽‍♂️

Terrorism

Fake news

Someone will do the samething for them also 👆🏽

Probably just another episode of Pallywood.

So now we’re turning on Israel?

Palestinians are the blacks of Israel

FreePalestine

moprospect Sadly it’s another day over there, we are all humans right?

Criminal Charges in George Floyd’s Death Set Up Legal BattleTo support a third-degree murder charge, prosecutors need to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the former Minneapolis police officer caused George Floyd's death by acting with a “depraved mind without regard for human life” if holding your knee for 8 minutes on someone's throat while they say they can't breathe isn't depraved then tell me what is.. He did seem to be enjoying it. He's also charged with (involuntary) manslaughter for which depraved indifference is not an element of the crime.
