The US government and brainwashed Americans enable the murders. We are complicit.

On October 29th Mahdi Mohtaseb was executed by Israeli forces at the Salaymeh (160) checkpoint, near the Ibrahimi Mosque in the old city of al-Khalil (Hebron). The 23-year-old from Jabal Johar, who was employed in a local sweets shop, was supposed to meet his fiancée later in the day.
At 0:22 seconds it shows an Israeli soldier shoot Mahdi in the back from close range as he lies wounded on the ground.
In a statement
released the 27th of October by Amnesty International, they concluded
that: “Israeli forces have carried out a series of unlawful killings of
Palestinians using intentional lethal force without justification”.
Amnesty also stated that “willful killings of Palestinians in the
Occupied Palestinian Territories are grave breaches of the Fourth Geneva
Convention, over which all states can exercise universal jurisdiction.”
In
the last week in al-Khalil, seven Palestinians have been murdered.
Ezzedin Nabi Sha’ban Abu Shakhdam, 17 (Gush Etzion), Shadi Nabil Dweik,
22 (Gush Etzion), Houmam Adnan Sa’id, 23, Islam Rafiq Hammad Ibeido, 23,
Mahdi Mohammad Ramadan al-Muhtasib, 23, and Farouk Abdel Qader Omar
Sidr, 19.
Mahdi Mohtaseb, who is
survived by four brothers, four sisters, and many grieving family and
loved ones, joins the daily rising death toll of mostly Palestinian
youths gunned down by Israeli forces and Israeli settlers since October
1st.
