So this Palestinian girl is firing with a catapult ,its range is 60 yds?

and this sniper what could her range be ? 1,000 m (1,094 yd),better the girl with a catapult says at home and watches herself on TV?


''You would have to desperate to fire a catapult at an IDF sniper Balan.'' Not desperate just having a few screws loose! 1 km away??
''Well for your sake I hope she hits the sniper'' I heard she is still firing she started at a young age but now she is 60 and still firing!

I have often wondered why the State of Israel deploys snipers who can kill a catapult bearing Palestine from 1 km away Balan.

Yesterdays news reads ''Gunshots fired from Gaza into Israel,'' military says
IDF spokesperson says shooting only set off alarm on Home Front Command's phone app and did not trigger sirens in nearby towns; no casualties or damage reported.

But your post reads #No 105, ''You would have to desperate to fire a catapult at an IDF sniper Balan.''

BT : We do not allow, what do you think ,that girl soldier would be firing on the front lines at an enemy, they have to wear an helmet, protection, etc. Your photo shows a girl most possibly on target practice on a shooting range at an army base in Israel.

We do not need snipers Covid-19 is there. Since the pandemic broke out, 16,755 cases were reported in Gaza (as of Wednesday), of which 9,744 have recovered. The virus’s basic reproduction number is 1.4, which is disturbingly high. Any value above 1 means the virus outbreak is increasing and the rate of infection spread accelerating.
What is even more disturbing is the direction sensed recently among Hamas leadership. For some reason the organization is taking the trouble to publish false reports that Israel is preventing the entry of medical equipment into the Strip, possibly in an attempt to find a scapegoat.
If Hamas blames Israel, then it can’t be blamed by its population. Israel’s security forces were unhappy with these accusations

Israel has provided test kits, protective gear and respiratory machines. Israel has even helped train doctors from Gaza in the Barzilai Medical Centre in Ashkelon to help operate the respiratory machines.
Still, Hamas’s campaign against Israel continues. Its kite and balloon arson units, which in the past have torched thousands of acres of land in Israel with airborne incendiaries, even published a statement warning Israel that the units will renew their activities unless Israel permits the entry of medical equipment. Why?
The most likely cause is because they’re scared. Hamas is afraid of an Arab Spring in which the population will enact widespread demonstrations that will undermine its legitimacy in Gaza.

At the end of the day Hamas is facing the difficult dilemma that every government in the world is now facing: economy versus health. Yet in Hamas’s case, the economy had already collapsed. The question is if Hamas will deflect public outrage towards Israel to avoid getting hit themselves.

I'm glad you have finally realised "anti-Israel" and "anti-Semitism" are different matters altogether mon ami.

Good lad!

Indeed BT, never disputed it, just because you're anti-zionist does not mean you're also anti-semitic, by the same token, just because you're anti-zionist does not mean you're not also anti-semitic.

In my experience they go hand in glove, like fish and chips, rarely do you find one without the other. Scrape an anti-zionist and you'll usually find an anti-semite not far below the surface.

I'm uncertain whether or not you know the difference between the objectives of a Zionist and the State of Israel mon ami.

[Balanbam00]

So B T you tell us what the objectives of a Zionist and the State of Israel are.

[The Bedlington Terrier]

I've included a graphic for the Zionists Balan,



This reflects the State of Israel...

[The Bedlington Terrier]

Zionism is a movement for (originally) the re-establishment and (now) the development and protection of a Jewish nation in what is now Israel. It was established as a political organization in 1897 under Theodor Herzl, and was later led by Chaim Weizmann.

So you do not read about Palestinian violence 'haver'?
1,377 people have been killed by Palestinian violence and terrorism since September 2000......so so ?

'' we built a wall of 'Lego bricks.' Then along comes 'Bansky' and starts painting on it. I say very nice of him to make this donation.

Its all for the 'cause' you know.

The world at times and in certain places is pretty messed up. I can’t imagine it is easy being surrounded by states that what you destroyed. I also can’t imagine living in the extreme poverty and lack of hope in parts of the Middle East and occupied territories.

It is just very very sad tbh - religious leaders and political leaders also seem to not really care about the ordinary person.

Beruit and the Lebanon looked like an oasis is liberal tolerance and sense in the 1960s and 1970s so it goes to show how sometimes you even need to guard and fight for the status quo - a lesson the modern western world needs to learn again.

Hopeless here on this Forum we have debated this for years. But what do you call the 'occupied territories'? Please clear up this matter. Thank you .

That map is a map of the 'Ottoman period,' the Ottomen divided the areas into areas known as 'sanjaks' ,( that's why you see the areas, as shown. The Sanjak of Acre (عكا),The Sanjak of Safad (صفد),The Sanjak of Nablus (نابلس), The Sanjak of Jerusalem (القدس) etc. In these areas there was no Palestine, if this was Palestine why is it divided into areas?
It was not Palestine it was part of the Ottoman empire.

The only reason it is called Palestine was because of the Roman Emperor Hadrian who changed the name of the Judea province to Syria Palaestina, and founded Aelia Capitolina on the ruins of Jerusalem

[Balanbam00]

No ,no Alfi By correct definition, its the away stand on every football ground. Of course the United Nations have not got around to making this International Law yet. The grape vine is rumoured to have this debate after the African nations cup, the problem with that is they have not stated which year? ( 2022,2023 etc etc )

[The Bedlington Terrier]

For some, it will always be Palestine Balan...
