The four Israelis who died were attacked by an Israeli citizen with ties to ISIS.
Why is it being framed as a Palestinian issue?
Same with the shooting of the two policemen. Again ISIS directed.
Why should ISIS operations in Israel, involving Israeli citizens as the perpetrators, be placed on the shoulders of the Palestinians?
The shooting of 5 people near Tel Aviv was instigated by a Palestinian militia and carried out by a West Bank Palestinian and should be condemned.
This is in light of an escalation of killings by the Israeli security forces in the West Bank.
"In the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, Israeli authorities continued to conduct punitive demolitions of homes of Palestinians who had carried out, or who were alleged to have carried out, attacks against Israelis. This collective punishment disproportionately affected women and children. Israeli authorities also withheld the bodies of 23 additional Palestinians, including children, killed by Israeli Security Forces during this period.
The number of Palestinians killed by Israeli Security Forces in law enforcement incidents more than tripled, compared with the previous reporting period. Israeli Security Forces killed 74 Palestinians, including 17 boys and three women, compared to 23 during the last reporting period."

Terrorism from both sides needs to be recognised and condemned by all, not just primarily pointing at one side all the time.
