Has anyone actually read the article?

Troops operated in the West Bank village of Kafr Dan, the hometown of two Palestinian gunmen who carried out a deadly attack along the West Bank security barrier a day earlier, in order to map out their residences ahead of a potential demolition.

During the overnight operation, troops clashed with Palestinian gunmen. The Palestinian Authority health ministry said a 17-year-old Palestinian, Oday Salah, was killed by Israeli gunfire.

The Israel Defense Forces said troops opened fire at armed Palestinians who shot toward troops and hurled explosive devices and Molotov cocktails, adding that “hits were identified.”

Maybe don't throw molotov cocktails and bombs and you won't get shot.

The issue is demolishing the houses of people who already have miserable lives. Bullying and hurting the downtrodden. But that's what Israel does.

Good job trying to distract, though. Seriously, who does this kind of thing for free?

The issue is don't commit acts of terrorism against civilians and your house won't be demolished. What's wrong with that? Why do we need to sympathize with people who deliberately go out of their way to stab/run over/bomb civilians just to make a "political move" as if that helps their movement. It just causes Israel to retaliate and them look like victims and martyrs for which they get paid
