At time of writing the headline reads:
American activist shot dead during protest in West Bank, Palestinian officials say
There is no mention of the IDF. It makes it sound like Palestinians killed her through their protesting. When, in reality, the IDF shot her! She was killed by the IDF! Strangely, the articles makes no mention of the victims name. She is just referred to as "the activist" over and over again. It's very dehumanizing.
IMHO the headline should read:
Israeli Troops Shot American Citizen Dead in West Bank, Palestinian Officials Say
I do love this paragraph also:
Protests at Beita are common. The Palestinian town is next to a ramshackle Israeli settler outpost known as Evyatar. The settlement was unauthorized by the Israeli state until it was legalized earlier this year. All Israeli settlements are considered illegal under international law.
It was "legalized" but all settlements are illegal to everyone else.
I hope that the name of the victim is published soon. She has apparently been martyred for the cause and she at least deserves recognition for that.
