Israeli settlers in the occupied West Bank have beaten to death a United States citizen in his early 20s, the victim’s family members and rights groups have said.

“We are aware of reports of the death of a US citizen in the West Bank,” Reuters reported a State Department spokesperson as saying. The official declined to comment further “out of respect for the privacy of the family and loved ones” of the reported victim.

Not an American, A Palestinian American. The Magazis don't give a shit.
- Anyone up for starting a petition for an A-List celebrity to stand in Gaza breadlines? Netanyahu might not be eager to kill them at least not right away so maybe a handful of kids could be saved
  (superwhite American, US-born to US-born parents, to marginally increase MAGA difficulty in aftermath interviews)
  
  Send Beavis and Butthead over to do it
- "No True American"
  
  According to the MAGAzis.
- According to MAGA? No, they're antisemitic terrorist supporters.
MAGA doesn’t care, he’s not White.
- Rachel Corrie says they still wouldn't care
  
  Yeah being white is necessary but not sufficient.
- Even if he were a white person, they still wouldn't do anything about it.
  Both Democrats and Republicans fully support the genocide.

The Trump administration doing something out of respect? 🤣
- The Trump admin doing nothing out of "respect"
"Settlers"
Lebensraum enjoyers
- Lebensraum
  Wasn't aware of this expression before, thank you for the new burn. "Casual enjoyer of other people's territory, as though it had simply been their own backyard the whole time, left waiting for their return."
  
  It's not a "burn" - it was the casus belli given for Nazi territorial expansion.
That’s it? “We’re aware”? We do a prisoner swap with Russia and release a notorious arms smuggler, just to get back a weed smuggling basketball player. But when our “good buddy” Israel literally murders one of our citizens, we’re just “aware”?
- Wrong person to insult. But you are right in the sentiment, that's it? I would at least stop the supply of weapons for a few weeks so when they burn thru their current pile after evaporating thousands more kids and women (because screw men when it comes to pain due to dying), maybe they'll stop and wonder where they can get more before someone gets pissed off.
  I got no Camel in that rat race, I just hope those who want war can get as much of the action as possible. Meanwhile, I wish the rest of us could be as war free as possible. Maybe they can create some remote island by dropping cars packed with dirt, rocks and plastic. Then anyone who wants war can just go there and fight other bright like minded fellows.
- "We are aware they own us and tell us what to do. In other news, spread your cheeks because here comes some heavily uncircumcised dick!!!"
- The Canadian government is aware that a Canadian citizen died in ICE custody.
  What are we supposed to do?
  Launch an invasion to free our people from the terrorist American regime?
  
  "launch an invasion"
  You always jump to extremes when making decisions?
  Here's the official statement from the US government: they are actively investigating it: https://www.ice.gov/news/releases/canadian-national-ice-custody-passes-away
  And the embassador tweeted: My team is following the death of a Canadian citizen while in @ICEgov custody. We will keep the Canadian government informed as ICE completes its investigation. I trust in ICE's commitment to transparency and to providing a safe environment for all individuals in its care.
  Do you find as Israeli government page saying we're investigating it? Not they I think ICE or Israel would investigate themselves properly, but at least they still put up the facade that diplomacy matters.
  Did US media create a touching profile for the victim?

  The US is funding and backing a genocide of Palestinians by Israel, and Israeli settlers murdering Palestinians is perfectly acceptable and happens every day. You'd think it would be different if it's a US citizen, but it's not, if you are killed by Israelis as a Palestinian or as a citizen of the US or its allies standing up for Palestinians, they treat you with the same contempt.
  
  Well....
"the beatings will continue, until PR for israel improves"- israel.
Scumbags
Can we invade yet?
- Invade who? Ourselves?
  Yes we can do that, and sooner than soon, that shit is already going down!
  
  Well when you put it that way, I suppose we do have multiple militarys operating on US soil doing bad shit...
I really hope they get some kind of karmic backlash. I don't really believe in karma but I don't know what else to think. All of our shitty countries are straight up fully supporting them or maybe straight up controlling them.
- What about actual backlash and we all agree that what the fucking Brits did was a shitfuckcunt of an idea and we should revert what they did and stop being a fucking lapdog to a psychotic terrorist nation directly responsible for the pedophile rampage of the global elites who literally are behind Epstein and Maxwell?
  Look. We all thought it was a remotely semi conscious idea back then. It didn't work out. Let's fix that.
  
  Yeah, I'm all for an actual backlash but that doesn't really seem like it's going to happen. People have access to this info from multiple sources and a majority of people continue to believe the places that constantly lie to them or they're sick fucks. Other people are against anything resembling a backlash and will be happy to vote for a status quo candidate who will have moved closer to the right(US) to get votes. The small percentage that's left, informed and ready for some action, aren't getting together and coming up with decent plans(that I know of anyway)
They might be aware, but they don't act on it appropriately.
When are you going to get the circumsized cock out of your asses, you religious dumbfucks? We're told what a bad bad bad country Russia is, in the meantime they're a lightweight in comparison to Israel in terms of unbridled savagery, and you not only are "aware" of it, you fund it and supply materiel.
- Russia is on the level of Israel in terms of being the worst offenders against democracy and peace on the planet. FUCK RUSSIA, fucking LEVEL THAT SHITHOLE WITH THE GROUND, let them all fucking DIE!
  Fucking robot apologist.
  Anyways, did you guys catch the game last night? Fucking travesty, they just try to walk the ball in every time.
  
  The united snakes is the worst offender against democracy and peace on the planet. It hold the crown for the most number of regime changes responsible for, it is the reason why israel can maintain occupation for this long.
  Russia is terrible but not try to do a final solution like israel does. Russia consider ukranian as russian which is dumb but mean it does not try to get rid of all ukrsnians by pushing thrm to other countries and mads scale civilians execution
"We know. We let them do it, because we're in an abusive relationship and Israel controls our government like those weird funguses that infect ant brains to make them climb the highest blades of grass they can find and then let the mushroom sprout out of their brains, just like thAAARGHBBBGRHRKALLAHARGAHHAGAGAGGAAAAAGAGAGAGAGAGAGAGAG"
