U.S. teen fatally shot in West Bank by Israeli forces, Palestinian officials say
The State Department confirmed that it has reached out to Israeli officials "for further information."
They had killed Americans Christian Journalist. The media that was crying wolf about khasogi and international uproar became very silent.

"A letter from 24 Senate Democrats pressed the Biden administration to probe the killing. The American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) lobbied against the letter. Previously, Senators Jon Ossoff and Mitt Romney issued a bipartisan demand for a full and transparent investigation. It followed an earlier letter in May signed by 57 House Democrats demanding an independent investigation into the killing."
Land of the free controlled by lobbiests..
Call it what it is.
Bribery.
What do you mean by "crying wolf"? The media was not crying wolf about Khasogi.
Land of the free controlled by lobbiests..
Always has been.
Did you mean to say "crying crocodile tears" instead of "crying wolf"?
That would make a lot more sense if that's what they meant. Since the governments "investigating" very clearly didn't care about what happened to him.
Oh, we care now that it was a US citizen? What about all those women and children? Literally thousands of them killed.
Are you equating Palestinians with Americans?!

This is the best summary I could come up with:
A Palestinian-American teenager was shot and killed Friday by Israeli troops in the West Bank, Palestinian officials told Reuters.
A State Department spokesperson would only confirm to CBS News that a U.S. citizen had died in the West Bank, adding that "we are working to understand the circumstances of the incident and have asked the government of Israel for further information."
The Israeli Police Spokesperson's Unit said in a statement that on Friday afternoon that "an incident report was received concerning firearm discharge, ostensibly involving an off-duty law enforcement officer, a soldier, and a civilian."
The "discharge was directed towards a perceived threat," described by the police statement as Palestinian individuals throwing rocks along a highway.
"Additional information indicated the potential fatality of a 17-year-old Palestinian due to gunfire," the police statement said, adding that an investigation has been launched.
Tensions in the West Bank have surged since Hamas launched its bloody Oct. 7 terrorist attack on southern Israel, sparking the Israel-Hamas war.
The original article contains 239 words, the summary contains 163 words. Saved 32%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
The "discharge was directed towards a perceived threat," described by the police statement as Palestinian individuals throwing rocks along a highway.
I have seen the aftermath of rocks being thrown on passing cars. If this 17-year-old did that, then he was not a civilian shot at random.
So your response to teenagers throwing rocks is to gun them all down?
That’s how a zionazi responds anyway, so you gotta be OK with it, you anti-semite
You’re the kind of person to defend My Lai for resisting, if we were back in the 60’s.
There was no resistance at My Lai. It was an unprovoked massacre.
This situation couldn't be any more different. Responding to an attack, even with potentially disproportionate force, is in no way comparable to raping and gunning down hundreds of civilians. I think you know that.
Expect a firmly worded letter attached to the next shipment of arms and military aid as a response.
The dots above the i's are no longer little hearts in this one.
