Palestinian film director and Academy Award-winner Hamdan Ballal was violently attacked by what his colleague described as a “lynch mob” of Israeli settlers on Monday night in the Palestinian village of Susya, south of Hebron in the occupied West Bank.
Ballal’s whereabouts are now unknown after Israeli soldiers then seized him from the ambulance that arrived to treat him, his co-director and fellow Oscar winner of the documentary No Other Land, Yuval Abraham, said on X.
Abraham, a journalist for +972 magazine, said in a separate post featuring a shaky cell phone video that masked settlers “attacked Hamdan’s village, they continued to attack American activists, breaking their car with stones”.
please don’t defend religions
While Judaism is a religion, not all Jews are religious. Jews are an ethno-cultural group as well. I’m not defending the religion of Judaism, I’m saying don’t lump the horrific actions of Israel and Zionists with people who are not supporting the genocide.
i too am a human with an ethnic background
Yes, and you should not be blamed if a country co-opts your identity and commits a genocide, unless you support it.
You’ll get down voted to hell for this but you’re right, religions do not deserve defending, they’re not a force for good
To be fair Abrahams God is an idiot and can’t be what religion claims One or more of the traits is disproven in religion. Can’t be omniscient, omnipotent or omnipresent. I don’t even think God understands omniscient or he wouldn’t have made so many mistakes like “resting on the 7th day”? How does something that cannot be tired rest?
