The settler wounded in today's shooting near Huwara is David Stern, a former US Marine soldier who provides combat & weapon training to #Israeli settlers.He's Israeli-American & lives in the Itamar settlement, built on land confiscated from 5 Palestinian villages.

The shooting of David Stern as he drove with his family today resulted, as always, with great celebrations by Palestinians.
Here a crowd goes to his house to celebrate.
And here are the obligatory fireworks celebrating the shooting of a Jew.
But, you may say, these are only the extremists. Certainly normal, sober Palestinians support shooting random Jewish civilians.
Well, Muhammed Shehada - who has bylines in Haaretz, Newsweek, Vice and elsewhere, and is a columnist for the Forward, and who also has a job working for a "human rights" NGO - went out of his way to justify Stern being shot twenty times:
Under international law, Stern is a civilian. His job and where he lives does not affect that designation. So this celebrated writer who pretends to be a human rights professional is justifying a war crime.
And he is considered moderate enough to write for Jewish-owned media.
If this is the best example of morality from Palestinian society, then Palestinian society is rotten to the core.
