The celebrations have begun.

Pretty weak "celebration"... Two of the three pictures don't even have anybody standing near the candy bowls. The third one just has a guy slipping a handwritten sign into the shot.

Edit; the three pictures in the link were as described above so I thought the maybe people were exaggerating the Palestinian response to these murders. But people below posted links of much bigger celebrations.

Well that is very worrying.

It's so sad that they celebrate murdering civilians. Not that I would agree with it, but I could at least understand why they might celebrate a successfully raid on an IDF post or killing IDF soldiers in a shootout. But this is over two Israeli citizens that were just driving their car around. That's awful.

Not that I would agree with it, but I could at least understand why they might celebrate a successful raid on a colonial fort or killing Redcoats in a shootout. But this is over two English farmers that were just driving their cart to market. That’s awful.

This is how the Palestinians would flip this back on you. Not that I agree with the above either, but some redditors tend to have a double standard about this when Israel or Palestine pops up.

I don't really get your point because celebrating civilian deaths is disgusting regardless of the context. Colonial Americans killing English farmers should have been nothing to celebrate over, but I could at least understand why colonial Americans might celebrate the deaths of some Redcoats.

I don't agree with the whole "Israeli settlers" operation but the settlers are still civilians. Israel's judges and government are facilitating the whole Settlement issue, I don't think Israeli civilians deserve to get shot over decisions that their judges and government made.

B-but I thought the Palestinians were all innocent angels who only want peace and are only fighting for their survival! That’s what the internet told me!
