Today, while combing the Palestinian Information Center Facebook page for grist for my mill, I came across this comment defending the palestinian Arab terrorist who tried to stab a female soldier and her commander as they were guarding the Giti Evyashar junction near Ariel.
Sounds like a clear justification to murder.
I looked in the comments section to some of their other posts, and saw this one from the same guy, dehumanizing Israelis who live in Judea and Samaria.
No Israeli soldiers were injured in the attack, according to the IDF.
Images from the scene, which were shared on social media, showed at least four soldiers surrounding the suspect, who lay prone on the ground. A knife was seen on the ground nearby.
The soldiers were members of the mixed-gender Ram Battalion of the IDF Home Front Command.
Yossi Dagan, the head of the local Samaria Regional Council, said the soldier involved in the incident was a new immigrant from the United Kingdom, who had moved to Israel without her family.
Dagan noted that the attack on the soldiers came a day after a resident of the Har Bracha settlement in the northern West Bank was attacked by Palestinians near the village of Burin while he was jogging. The man was taken to Meir hospital in Kfar Saba with mild injuries, according to Magen David Adom.
