A Palestinian teenager with US citizenship was killed after being shot by an Israeli settler in the West Bank town of Turmus Ayya, Palestinian officials said on Sunday, as tensions continue to escalate amid a surge in settler violence and near-daily confrontations between Israeli settlers and Palestinians across the occupied territory.

Omar Mohammad Rabea, 14, was shot along with two other teenagers by an Israeli settler at the entrance to Turmus Ayya, the town’s mayor, Adeeb Lafi, told Reuters.

“Two of them were transported by ambulance to a nearby medical center and then to the hospital. The army arrived at the scene and detained the third injured boy, who is 14 years old and holds US citizenship,” Lafi said

Edit: New articles claim the child was killed by the IDF not an Israeli colonist

As far as the pro life is concerned, once they're born they're fair game.

It's like that law that prohibits catching juvenile crabs. Gotta make sure there'll be more kids to hunt in the future.

These are also the same people who prefer kids act as bullet sponges during school hours, then ~~groom/coerce~~ encourage the survivors just before they come of age to be ~~rapists, pillagers, and murderers~~ bullet sponges to ~~fuel corporate and imperialist interests~~ “defend the country.”

Bonus points for tossing veterans aside like trash the moment they step foot back on US soil 🤡

There’s an extra layer of schadenfreude for these pricks when the deceased are poor, brown, and/or of (nonwhite) immigrant background.

Let’s just say I wouldn’t cry reading the obituary of a forced birther. /rant
