Well, could they have at least waited until 4/22 to help celebrate erf day with the rest of us? A slight shift in the wind and they could cause some self inflicted damage. And, don't think this will be a bother for the IDF.

So shoot the first one who lights a match. Repeat as necessary.

I hope Israel has a bunch of fire suppression aircraft and can quickly dump loads of water and/or fire suppressing chemicals on these fools

It’s a shame. I had a few burning questions I wanted to ask her.

I can see all the "Palestinians" [sic] surround by acrid smoke, grunting and hopping and bobbing and gesticulating, indistinguishable from a chimpout in Planet of the Apes.

the thick heavy smoke, besides being an ecological disaster, is meant to screen the terrorists in the crowd from IDF snipers ...
