It’s estimated that between 1,000 and 1,200 settlers surrounded the village, and around 500 stormed it just after midday local time on Friday, blocking all the roads in the area.

According to Abu-Alia [head of the village council], the Israeli military arrived at the scene at around 3 p.m. local time, but did not stop the settlers from attacking the village. Instead, Israeli soldiers allowed them to raid homes, prevented Palestinian residents from moving around and blocked ambulances from reaching the injured, he alleged.

Israeli security forces had informed Palestinian officials that the settlers were looking for an Israeli teenager who had gone missing earlier in the day.

      Oh man, this has to be the worst take I’ve seen from you yet, and you’ve said a lot of smooth brained shit already.

      I’ll rephrase this, just to illustrate how this is nonstick levels of brain smoothness.

      A violent gang is based in the next neighborhood over. A teenager in my neighborhood goes missing. Despite having no evidence the gang is involved, members of my neighborhood decide to go to that neighborhood to light the cars and houses of people unaffiliated with the gang on fire until the gang releases the teenager they may or may not have.

      Your brain is so smooth, you could be a koala.
