US Blames Israel for Endangered Americans in PA

The US blamed Israel for endangered American citizens in the PA-controlled areas of Judea and Samaria in a travel warning issued Friday.

The United States bluntly told its citizens it is risky to travel to “Israel, the West Bank and the Gaza Strip,” citing “threats to themselves and the U.S. interests in those locations.”

Although the U.S. trained and equipped the Palestinian Authority's military police force several years ago – which “resulted in a marked decrease in violence in recent years” – the State Department nevertheless warned that Americans would still not be safe there.

One year ago, PA police gunned down a group of Israelis who were visiting the Tomb of the Prophet Joseph near Shechem, killing one and wounding four others. The tomb, which under the Oslo Accords is supposed to be maintained under Israel's sovereignty, has been repeatedly vandalized by PA Arabs . . .

Of course, it can’t be Hezbollah’s fault.

Death is Gods way of fixing stupid.

Any American dumb enough to go into areas that are controlled by the PA get what they deserve. You cannot deal with those people.

No More!

Israel National News should get its facts straight. Joseph’s Tomb was turned over to the PA pursuant to Oslo, and then burnt and vandalized, pilgrims murdered. Another one of the millions of reasons why Oslo should be buried 12 feet under and pissed on.
