Israel’s internal security service, Shin Bet, interrogated a field researcher for rights group B’Tselem who they said was always around during Palestinian activity, and has been “making trouble and threatening the army.”
His troublemaking includes reporting on an unarmed Palestinian who was shot in the neck and paralyzed.
Extremist Jewish supremacist parties find themselves suddenly relevant as Netanyahu’s Likud party seeks to form alliances and win enough legislative seats to protect him from legal action.

Thousands of demolition orders have been served here, but residents refuse to leave their ancestral lands.

London-based group says video evidence casts doubt on claims Ahmad Erekat was conducting an attack on the day of his sister’s wedding last June when Israeli police gunned him down. It’s what his family has said all along.
