PASCO, Wash. — In the fourth fatal police shooting here in six months, a man was killed as he ran a half block from police with his arms outstretched and then turned around.

Police say orchard worker Antonio Zambrano-Montes, 35, hit two officers with rocks when they shot him Tuesday evening at a busy intersection here.

His family said he was holding a rock.

The ‘Pallywood’ smear: Viral images of Palestinian boy’s brutalization brings backlash [View all] R. Daneel Olivaw Sep 2015 OP

Mondoweiss is so dumb, they admit it was an ambush.... shira Sep 2015 #1

Note to DUers: the smears continue. R. Daneel Olivaw Sep 2015 #2

Mondoweiss admitted it was an ambush. Game over, Ace. n/t shira Sep 2015 #3

LOL. Please ignore the IDF brutality. It's very telling, ace. R. Daneel Olivaw Sep 2015 #8

The OP is about staged scenes & you just got your ass handed to you.... shira Sep 2015 #11

LOL! The IDF helped stage the scenes! What Hollywood action, shira. R. Daneel Olivaw Sep 2015 #12

Seriously, you're the gift that keeps on giving. shira Sep 2015 #13

In time, shira, in time. BDS will prevail against apartheid Israel in the same way that South Africa R. Daneel Olivaw Sep 2015 #50

Ah yes, BDS again. Funded & supported by the same folks who fund & support ISIS. n/t shira Sep 2015 #53

BDS is a global, movement, shira, but please go ahead and poorly attempt to discredit it. R. Daneel Olivaw Sep 2015 #81

What do you think of the clip in the OP? Little Tich Sep 2015 #19

Police kill man who threw rocks at officers oberliner Sep 2015 #20

No, I don't live in the US. Little Tich Sep 2015 #21

From 2 weeks ago (Aug, 2015) child arrested for throwing rocks.... shira Sep 2015 #38

Now we're getting somewhere... Little Tich Sep 2015 #49

You try throwing rocks at Police or Soldiers. See what happens. shira Sep 2015 #54

And it's the usual, "Israel is not as bad as the other guys" defense. R. Daneel Olivaw Sep 2015 #61

the IDF guy was repeatedly assaulted by bystanders Mosby Sep 2015 #22

Not really, no. Little Tich Sep 2015 #24

Did you see the pics of the boy with a cast throwing rocks? shira Sep 2015 #41

How do you know it was the same kid? Little Tich Sep 2015 #48

She doesn't, but her convictions tell her to believe a blog post, I guess. R. Daneel Olivaw Sep 2015 #62

That clip doesn't happen w/o adults putting children deliberately in harm's way.... shira Sep 2015 #27

Video of the ambush shows girl in pink looking at the cameras constantly... shira Sep 2015 #4

It must really trouble you that Palestinians just won't lay down and take their beatings by the IDF. R. Daneel Olivaw Sep 2015 #7

Do u support this child abuse - sending kids out in potential harm's way.... shira Sep 2015 #9

You mean this kind of child abuse? R. Daneel Olivaw Sep 2015 #14

Another deflection. Why can't u answer whether u support abusing children..... shira Sep 2015 #16

if IDF is as moral and faultless as some would have us believe then she was not in danger azurnoir Sep 2015 #18

Crickets... R. Daneel Olivaw Sep 2015 #63

Did you notice that the soldier grabs the girl by the throat at around 0.30 in the clip? Little Tich Sep 2015 #23

about the cameras - B'tselem has been giving camera to Palestinians to document the actions of IDF azurnoir Sep 2015 #25

It's interesting that the only appeal to justice these people have is the impartial testimony of Little Tich Sep 2015 #26

It's not about an appeal to justice. It's about catching the Jew... shira Sep 2015 #29

It's per definition impossible to prove that the Palestinians are baiting the poor IDF soldiers Little Tich Sep 2015 #32

Really? Did you see the videos above? The girl waiting for the camera.... shira Sep 2015 #35

You still don't get it. The demonstrators search for IDF troops..... shira Sep 2015 #28

If anything shows what Mondoweiss is about, it is this article oberliner Sep 2015 #5

The blindness and ineptitude is on those who constantly apologize and make excuses for IDF cruelty. R. Daneel Olivaw Sep 2015 #6

It's sick & perverted to justify, defend & flaunt this kind of child abuse shira Sep 2015 #10

You mean this kind of child abuse? R. Daneel Olivaw Sep 2015 #15

Another typical deflection & evasive non-answer. n/t shira Sep 2015 #17

Whatevah ya say. R. Daneel Olivaw Sep 2015 #33

Attack the messenger, as usual. BillZBubb Sep 2015 #31

Nah, if you think that's brutal then you don't know what brutal is. n/t shira Sep 2015 #36

1) blame the victim; 2) attack the messenger geek tragedy Sep 2015 #56

Would you say that if someone posted an article from Free Republic? oberliner Sep 2015 #57

sources like algemeiner? nt geek tragedy Sep 2015 #58

The boy with the cast. First the Right arm, then the Left arm.... shira Sep 2015 #30

the 2 that show someone with a cast on right arm do not show the persons face azurnoir Sep 2015 #47

The only coincidence I see is that you once again appear to be posting disinformation. R. Daneel Olivaw Sep 2015 #51

Quick question Shira GeoWilliam750 Sep 2015 #59

That was not such a quick question. shira Sep 2015 #60

Generally ignored by all of the Israeli propagandists: guillaumeb Sep 2015 #34

And being ignored by the anti-Israel propagandists is the obvious child-abuse.... shira Sep 2015 #37

I will respond to your points in order: guillaumeb Sep 2015 #39

Pretty lame responses. You can't even prove the occupation is illegal... shira Sep 2015 #40

On settlement expansion, let me enlighten you: guillaumeb Sep 2015 #42

Nah, lemme enlighten you... shira Sep 2015 #43

"As to child abuse, I'm not getting into a shitting match." R. Daneel Olivaw Sep 2015 #46

Do you condemn using Palestinian kids (child abuse) for propaganda purposes? shira Sep 2015 #55

Do you condemn an IDF terrorist for throwing a stun grenade guillaumeb Sep 2015 #66

I'll gladly answer once I see some condemnation for.... shira Sep 2015 #67

I am unsure if your broadbrush, ad hominem attack is aimed at me personally or at guillaumeb Sep 2015 #69

I cleaned that up, but you didn't condemn Hamas, Fatah, & the ISM... shira Sep 2015 #72

Thank you Light bringer! guillaumeb Sep 2015 #65

Settlements take 1% of the land. How did u miss that? n/t shira Sep 2015 #68

How did you miss the effective control of nearly 42% of Palestine? eom guillaumeb Sep 2015 #70

Settlements taking 1% doesn't imply constant land theft as u claim. n/t shira Sep 2015 #73

Settling on the land, and then surrounding the settlements with large areas guillaumeb Sep 2015 #76

If the situation is as bad as you claim, then why didn't the PA agree.... shira Sep 2015 #78

"You forgot to respond about the stun grenade and the reports of child abuse by the IDF." R. Daneel Olivaw Sep 2015 #45

Avoidance is a tactic, but a poor answer to the unanswerable. guillaumeb Sep 2015 #71

You're all avoiding & ignoring child abuse in the territories... shira Sep 2015 #74

So Israel can avoid responsibility for its own crimes by pointing at the crimes of others? guillaumeb Sep 2015 #75

Just look at those accusing Israel of war crimes. Find some credible organizations... shira Sep 2015 #77

An interesting demonstration of debating tactics. guillaumeb Sep 2015 #79

I'm just asking for non-fascist organizations harshly condemning Israel.... shira Sep 2015 #80

"You can't even prove the occupation is illegal..." And the mask comes off! R. Daneel Olivaw Sep 2015 #44

If it were illegal, Oslo 1 and 2 wouldn't have made it kosher... shira Sep 2015 #52

Olso is dead, King Bib killed it. R. Daneel Olivaw Sep 2015 #64
