Why Egypt Is Concerned about Gaza
Good article, thanks.

The Al-Khaleej Online website reported on April 9, 2018, that Egypt planned to open the Rafah crossing to traffic in both directions for a four-day period as a gesture toward the Hamas leadership and to reduce tensions in Gaza following the Return March.​

Pfffft, Egypt is trying to bribe Hamas with chickenfeed.

A rioter was shot and killed during a violent protest on the Israel-Gaza border Thursday evening, health officials in the Gaza Strip claimed.

Officials in the Hamas-ruled Gaza Strip identified the man as 28-year-old Abdullah al-Shahari, a resident of the Gaza Strip who was reportedly shot and killed during a demonstration outside of Khan Yunis in the southern Gaza Strip.

According to AFP, IDF officials could not confirm the incident.

If verified, the latest death would raise the total number of fatalities in the riots at 33.

[ Another Friday, another Muslim rage spectacle ]


Palestinian protesters in Gaza on Friday hurled an explosive device and firebombs at Israeli troops manning the border, during what the Israel Defense Forces described as “several attempts” to damage the fence between Israel and the Gaza Strip and cross over into Israeli territory.

Thousands of Palestinians were taking part in violent riots in five locations along the length of the border, the army said. In addition to trying to cross the barrier, a number of attacks were carried out, with demonstrators throwing Molotov cocktails and explosives at Israeli soldiers.

IDF: Gaza protesters hurl explosives, firebombs, try to damage fence
 
Muhammad Hajila, a member of the Hamas Izz al-Din al-Qassam Brigades who was killed overnight Friday by IDF fire in the Gaza Strip, was part of the cell that carried out an attack on the Israeli community of Nahal Oz during the 2014 Gaza war, Hamas-affiliated media reported.

A number of IAF fighter jets attacked a terrorist target inside a military compound belonging to Hamas in the northern Gaza Strip around 1 AM Friday. The attack came in response to the detonating of an explosive device against an IDF bulldozer near the border fence on Thursday.

Terrorist Killed by IAF Fire Participated in Hamas Attack that Killed 5 in Nahal Oz
 
After two Fridays of demonstrations, many in the Arab world are now supporting Israel against Hamas, mostly because those rallies are seen as being initiated and supported by Iran, and in the Gulf states, as well as in Saudi Arabia and Egypt, Iran is feared as a zealous, destabilizing, expansionist force in the Middle East.

One important commentator in Kuwait has written that Iran is behind the demonstrations, that the demonstrations are not helping the Arab world, and that the IDF should “kill all the demonstrators.”

Even some un-named officials in Ramallah have condemned Hamas, which, they said, “throws babies into the fence and trades in the blood of children.” Arab social networks also show an eroding support for the demonstrations and for Hamas.

Third Friday’s Gaza Fence Rally Theme: Burn Israeli Flags
 
But the problem is arguably worse, because the entire border is susceptible to infiltration during the weekly riots, not just the areas where Gazans are gathering. Here are some satellite images showing how close Israeli communities are from Gaza - a short walk away in many cases.

Nahal Oz is about 800 meters from the border.



These four communities - from the top, Kisufim, Ein Hashlosha, Nirim and Nir Oz - are between 1-2 miles from the border.

Here's the thing. Only three weeks ago, a mere days before the first "Great Return March," Hamas held military exercises that were centered on kidnapping Israelis. Their exercises were centered on kidnapping Israeli soldiers, but their tunnel placement and the fact that they are holding Israeli citizens, today, as hostages show that they want to kidnap civilians as well.

Who is running these riots? Hamas!

The dangers to Israeli citizens from the Gaza riots (that the media doesn't bother to explain) ~ Elder Of Ziyon - Israel News
 
Nobody in the world has the right to criticize Israel’s defensive actions on the Gaza border, even if Israel had used significant force against the Hamas mobs – which it didn’t. Having been so wrong in their Pollyannaish hopes for the Oslo Accords, for the Arab Spring, and for the JCPOA – and so feckless during the Holocaust – the nations of the world have no moral right to tell Israel what to do, how to conduct its politics, where to erect its security fences, how to conduct its military campaigns, where draw its borders or how to defend them, or what ancestral lands to trade away, if at all, to the Palestinians.

The IDF spokesperson stated that the violence on the border has continued throughout the past hour.

A kite bomb with a Molotov cocktail attached was attempted to be sent into Israeli territory, but ended up landing within Gaza.

This is in addition to several attempts by the over 10,000 protesters throughout the last hour to breach the border between Israel and Gaza and sabotage security infrastructure.
 
17:36 Liberman tweets to soldiers at the border

Defense Minister Avigdor Liberman tweeted regarding the Gaza protests:

"From week to week, there are fewer riots on our border with Gaza. Our resolve is well understood on the other side. I thank the soldiers and IDF commanders for professional and ethical work in guarding the border. Thank to you, the citizens of Israel can proceed with the routine, and a small and two-faced minority can even protest against you. Shabbat Shalom!

IDF: Gazans hurl explosives, firebombs, burn Israeli flags, try to damage fence
 
In these thirty years of wars and frictions between Israelis and Palestinians, nobody remembers the Israeli military missions aborted due to the presence of Palestinian civilians, the checkpoints removed and exploited to carry out attacks, the Israeli humanitarian aid trucks entered in Gaza, the Israeli hospitals always full of injured and sick Palestinians, Palestinian ambulances used to transport weapons and murderers, UN schools from which missiles are launched, tunnels dug under mosques, trials and convictions given to Israeli soldiers who have broken rules of engagement.

The Great Lie has eaten the truth of the conflict, namely that Israel, the besieged at every border, it is the true weak part of the conflict.

The conquest of the hearts and minds of the West is the biggest Palestinian booty. This is how the "Palestinian question" has become strategic over the last fifty years and has dominated the UN stage. Without the newspapers, the NGOs, the chanceries, the news of the evening, the social media and the squares, the Palestinians today would be more irrelevant than the Tibetans or the Papuans, their victims yes of an authentic "occupation", but last in the hierarchy of international compassion.

Imagine that you are that Israeli soldier
 
Hamas this week made an urgent appeal to UNRWA: “SEND TIRES!” The anticipated shipment was not received in time for today’s fire burning festival in Gaza. However, Hamas’s foresight of this calamity it appears has saved the day, as it had instructed its Arts and Crafts Department earlier in the week to construct what they call the “Ark of the Palestinian Covenant”. The lightweight, hollow on the inside, and portable box draped with an Israeli flag with a big red X over the star of David is being paraded on the field in Gaza on the shoulders of four strong Palestinian men, while they smile at the cameras, it has been reported. Since the tires were not received in time, today’s fire burning festival will involve flags.

Last Friday, Palestinians burned rubber tires and as black thick clouds of smoke violently assaulted the ozone not a single signer of the Paris climate accord appealed to the Palestinians to exercise restraint in their “non-violent with all the violence” protest. In all fairness, France’s President Macron was too busy applying moisturizer to his skin and Germany's Chancellor Merkel was preoccupied with organizing “assimilation parties” for Muslim refugees, on how to be good German citizens.

Hamas:  "SEND TIRES!"
