this was as much an error as the hamas lead negotiator being killed in iran was. at some point you'd think that the covering for israel the empire does, like that of a mother spoiling her son, would stop, but no sign of that is anywhere i've seen, as the world sides with the perpetrator;


Graphic video shared on X shows Eygi appears to have been shot with a bullet to the head.

From The Washington Post, "U.S. woman fatally shot at West Bank protest; witnesses say IDF shot her":

An American woman was killed Friday in the occupied West Bank, the State Department said. Two witnesses said the woman was shot in the head by Israeli forces who had opened fire.

The woman, Aysenur Eygi, a 26-year old volunteer with the International Solidarity Movement, a pro-Palestinian activist group, had been attending a protest against Jewish settlement expansion in the town of Beita when she was shot, her colleagues said. Copies of her passport that circulated online said she was born in Turkey and the Turkish Foreign Ministry said in a statement that she was a citizen.

The Israel Defense Forces said it was “looking into reports that a foreign national was killed as a result of shots fired in the area.” The statement said that Israeli forces in the area of Beita, in the northern West Bank, “responded with fire toward a main instigator of violent activity who hurled rocks at the forces and posed a threat to them.”

What are the odds this story will get even half as much coverage as the killing of Israeli-American Hersh Goldberg-Polin?..........more.......
