Aside from the fact that Israel was being attacked by the Palestinians after withdrawing to the 1967 borders of the Gaza Strip, here's some context that Mr. Kristof left out. B'Tselem is funded by German church groups, the governments of Switzerland and the European Union, and the same Ford Foundation that underwrote the anti-Israel agitation that preceded the United Nations' Durban conference.

Moreover, the statistics Mr. Kristof cites don't include Israelis killed by other Arab terrorists working in league with the Palestinian Arabs and funded by the same Iranian terror master. In 2006, that included 43 Israeli civilians and 117 Israeli soldiers who were killed in the war with Lebanese-based Hezbollah. The B'Tselem statistics do include — but Mr. Kristof omits — the 55 Palestinian Arabs killed in 2006 by other Palestinian Arabs, a figure to which can be added another 84 killed in intramural violence in January and February of 2007.

For these deaths, it seems Mr. Kristof hasn't yet figured out how to blame the Israelis. Nor does Mr. Kristof's selective use of the B'Tselem statistics include the Americans and those from other countries who were killed by Palestinian Arab terrorists, such as Daniel Wultz, a 16-year-old from Florida who was slain in a 2006 suicide attack on the old central bus station in Tel Aviv.

Across the political spectrum in Israel, the United Nations report was condemned – noting its purpose was simple – to undermine Israel's right to defend its citizens from attack.

Israel’s Education Minister Naftali Bennett noted that the report “..has blood on its hands [for] allowing the murder of Jews.” Speaking from the Knesset, Bennett said, “It is a report with blood on its hands that is trying to turn Jewish blood into the cheapest product in the world. This is a report with blood on its hands because it’s trying to restrict soldiers who protected this country’s citizens; it’s trying to tie our hands.”

There is blood on the hands of those who wrote the report – as well as those organizations funded by The New Israel Fund who provided factually inaccurate information to the United Nations. They are responsible for this modern day blood libel against Israel.

“Straight away I give their pictures and phone numbers to the Preventive Security Force,” Nawi is heard saying in reference to the Palestinian Authority’s counterintelligence arm. “The Palestinian Authority catches them and kills them. But before it kills them, they get beat up a lot.”

In the Palestinian Authority, the penal code reserves capital punishment for anyone convicted of selling land to Jews. This law, which Palestinian officials defended as designed to prevent takeovers by settlers, has not been implemented in Palestinian courts, where sellers of land to Jews are usually sentenced to several years in prison. However, in recent years several Palestinian have been murdered for selling land. Their murders have remained unsolved.

The latest report by B’Tselem on Operation Protective Edge which was published this week and titled “Whitewash Protocol” isn’t a real report. It’s incitement. It’s a biased opinion piece by a radical-left-wing organization which has no problem lying to achieve its goals.

The lies hit the reader from the opening lines in which the report determines unequivocally that 63% of those killed in the operation were innocent civilians with no connection to Hamas. The IDF’s number, which come from an in-depth investigation, is almost the reverse – 36%. Even Israel’s harshest critics admit that Hamas inflated the numbers to serve its propaganda.

Bassem established the Palestinian Human Rights Monitoring Group.  He had resigned from B’Tselem, an Israeli Human Rights monitoring organization, where he was employed as a senior field researcher (1989-1996) following B’Tselem’s decision not to monitor human rights abuses of Palestinians by the PA. In 2016, Bassem assumed the role of chairman at the Center for Near East Policy Research.

Israel is in an uproar following a damning news report Friday which aired on Channel 2 Israel’s highly-respected _Uvda_ program, on which secretly recorded video tapes revealed that Nasser Nawaja (pictured above), a Palestinian leader of left-wing human rights organization B’Tselem, and Ezra Nawi, a Jewish Israeli activist in an organization named Ta’ayush, conspired to entrap Palestinians interested in selling land to Israelis, and led them to their deaths.

“Straight away I give their pictures and phone numbers to the Preventive Security Force,” Nawi is recorded saying, reporting Arabs who wish to sell land to the Jews to the Palestinian Authority’s counterintelligence unit – a certain death sentence.

B’Tselem didn’t explain why Nawaja didn’t just get his donor friends to buy the land.

It isn’t that the radical Left’s goal of expelling all Jews and IDF units from Judea, Samaria and Jerusalem is inherently illegitimate -- that is, illegal. It is arguably just as legal as the late Meir Kahane’s goal of expelling all Arabs from Judea and Samaria.

The name “B’Tselem” was seared into the public’s consciousness as an organization hostile to Israel and dedicated to causing it harm with the publication of the UN’s Goldstone Commission Report in 2009. Among the Israeli-registered groups that provided materials to the biased UN commission charged with finding Israel guilty of war crimes during the course of Operation Cast Lead against Hamas in late 2008 and early 2009, B’Tselem made the greatest contribution.

The publication is part of an international NGO-led campaign of demonization that falsely accuses Israel of abusing children’s rights. The allegation that this policy is “systematic” and “extensive,” language taken from the Rome Statute’s definition of crimes against humanity, reflects lawfare – an attempt to drive indictments at the International Criminal Court (ICC). (For more details, see NGO Monitor’s reports, “The Origins of ‘No Way to Treat a Child’” and “No Way to Represent a Child: Defence for Children International – Palestine’s Distortions of the Israeli Justice System.”)

HaMoked and B’Tselem are co-beneficiaries of a two-year, €200,000 grant (expiring December 2017) from the EU, “Youth in Detention: Preventing mistreatment of detained Palestinian minors in East Jerusalem.” The title of the project already prejudices the research findings and indicates the politicized aims of the project, the NGO implementers, and its funder.

The report is based on testimonies from a small group of minors accused of violent offenses. (The report refers to stone-throwing, but there may be other, more serious charges as well.) B’Tselem and HaMoked do not provide broader or comparative data that portray standard police practices regarding crimes by both Israeli and Palestinian minors. It is distinctly possible that, indeed, these are the “rare exceptions,” due to the violent nature of the accusations, where Israeli law permits, for instance, arrests of minors.

The context of law enforcement in Jerusalem is essential, however ignored by the authors. All Jerusalem residents, whether Israeli or Palestinian, are subject to the same Israeli law and face the same justice system. For instance, Jewish minors are also detained at the Russian Compound, so any deficiencies do not reflect “institutional, systemic discrimination” against Palestinian residents as stated by the NGO authors.

Access to Jordan Valley Land

Access to Jordan Valley Land

In the first story, a Sept. 10 piece by Ben Hubbard, the paper erred about Palestinian access to the Jordan Valley, a stretch of land parallel to the Jordan River that runs along the West Bank’s eastern border. Citing the Israeli advocacy group B’Tselem, Hubbard told readers Palestinians are “barred from entering or using about 85 percent” of the Jordan Valley where it passes through the West Bank.

3. Such a line "he fired for no reason" is an insult to anyone's intelligence. Who is he trying to fool about a tightly close border fence with constant attempt by racist Arab Palestinians young or old to harm Israeli Jews? Soldiers ), 24/7, are on edge on every little sudden move of anyone. One can presume there might be some mistakes aling these hot points too.
