I wonder how serious this is. China is essentially a mercantile empire building influence around the world and probably won't enjoy Israel loving around with their interests. At the same time I can imagine them doing everything possible to minimize risk and confrontation.

Netanyahu is losing his grip on the country. I remember a week ago there were rumors floating around on Arab social media about Netanyahu seeking a ceasefire brokered through the Egyptians - but I didn't want to post about it here since I wasn't sure it was much more than rumor. Netanyahu probably figured very early on that the new war on Palestine was a massive miscalculation and was looking for a way out, and now he has to deal with rogue elements of the IDF and the settler psychos who are going to agitate for any kind of break on the ceasefire they can get.

After a brief exchange of tear gas and rock throwing, the police said they had pulled back.

The clash broke out shortly after the conclusion of midday prayers, as Israeli police officers entered the mosque compound and fired tear gas and sound grenades.

A raid by Israeli police officers more than a month ago at the mosque was a fuse that ultimately ignited the worst violence to rock the region in seven years.

Micky Rosenfeld, a spokesman for the Israeli police, said that rocks had been thrown at officers standing outside the Chain Gate, one of the entrances to the compound. He said the forces had entered the site to pursue the people who threw the rocks. He said he was not aware of any arrests as of 2:20 p.m.

Thousands of worshipers had come to the mosque compound for midday

I know even when Israel did their land grab back in the day the US had big reservations mainly from George C Marshall who recognized that the creation of Israel would create a constant power keg situation in Middle East. Plus he recognized that recognizing Israel would also antagonize all the surrounding nations.

The US still went ahead with it despite the reservations or Israel starting a covert nuclear weapons program.

I'm really dumb on this particular topic: so do the settlers just start squatting in people's houses and then call the Israeli police when the homeowners try to fight back? Is that literally the tactic?

Seems to be the case in a lot of instances - there are the videos of settler mobs making bucket brigades tossing out people's furniture. Or that fat American expat shithead telling the woman if he hadn't stolen her house someone else would have. I think some have been "formally" evicted by Israeli courts who don't have actual jurisdiction since East Jerusalem is occupied territory.

In some cases, in others, what'll happen is that some Israeli court or building inspector will go in, declare a Palestinian dwelling to be in violation of code, and do a 'legal' eviction, and it just so happens a family from Brooklyn will move in there. That or they'll declare that the Palestinian owners don't have enough documentation so they don't really own their domicile.

yeah so there’s a law called the absentee’s property law which basically says if a palestinian leaves the area of their home by, say, traveling to Jordan, the israelis can then claim the home for a settler. My understanding is there is no defined absentee period, the state simply determines it. You can legit come home and your keys don’t work. Palestinians also don’t have the ability to improve infrastructure in area C since those lands have it managed by Israel, so you’ll see that used to shove people out too. Also Palestinians aren’t even allowed in certain areas and have to use special palestinian id cards since they aren’t israeli citizens. Need a passport? Get it from Jordan, bitch.

In a word: nazis

I wanna say in that case the Palestinians either had it stolen in the Nakba or some later date and the Brooklyn couple bought it decades later and are shitheads who don't care. Unless there's a write up where they just booted them out and took it.

It's also worth keeping in mind that the Palestinians in the West Bank have no guns, but all the settlers do. So imagine going home and there's some fat New York dipshit standing on your balcony pointing an uzi at you, saying to get off his property.
