[Marxism] Israel Violated Cease-fire 7 Times US Media Misreport Latest Gaza Violence
Israel Violated Cease-fire 7 Times
US Media Misreport Latest Gaza Violence
Please phone and ask for correction!

American media are reporting violence that took place along the Gaza-Israel
border on January 27th as, in the words of CNN, "the first incidents of
violence since last week's Mideast cease-fire," telling the public that
Palestinians broke the ceasefire. [1]
The reality, however, is that Israel had already violated the cease-fire at
least 7 times, the Israeli military killing 2 Palestinian civilians and
injuring at least 5, at least one of them a child:
* Israeli forces killed a Palestinian farmer in Khuza'a east of Khan
Yunis on Jan 18
* Israeli forces killed a Palestinian farmer east of Jabalia on Jan 19
* Israeli naval gunboats shelled the Gaza coast line, causing damage to
civilian structures on Jan 21
* Israeli troops shot and injured a child east of Gaza City on Jan 22
* Israeli gunboat fire injured 4-7 Palestinian fishermen on Jan 22
* Israeli shelling set a Palestinian house on fire on Jan 22
* Israeli tanks fired on the border town of Al Faraheen, causing damage
to homes and farms on Jan 24
This list does not include two Palestinian children who were killed on
January 20th by unexploded ordnance left from Israel's 22-day assault on
Gaza.[2]
(Additional details about the above cease-fire breaches and citations can be
found in the timeline below.)
