The Israelis didn't cause the Black Death, but it is important to understand that the Israelis have committed several horrible massacres of Palestinians. The Palestinians were also correct to protest Israel for all the Israeli pillaging and slaughter.

Lydda Massacre (July 1948)
Lydda and Ramle, two towns originally designated to be part of an Arab state in Palestine as per the UN Partition Plan of 1947, ultimately came under Israeli control. The Israeli assault on Lydda began on July 11, 1948.
The city's defenders initially put up a fierce resistance but eventually depleted their ammunition. Israeli forces entered the city in the evening, and upon gaining entry, they carried out indiscriminate violence, opening fire on anyone attempting to escape.
Israeli soldiers made deceptive assurances of safety, urging residents to remain in their homes or places of worship, only to betray those seeking refuge. By 12 July, the Israelis had secured complete control of the city, even though it had not formally surrendered. They ordered male residents to gather in mosques and churches, imposing a curfew. Heartbreakingly, both the Great Mosque and the Dahmash Mosque, where hundreds had sought shelter, became harrowing scenes of violence. While estimates of the death toll vary, it is believed that over 400 Lydda residents lost their lives. Unfortunately, the tragedy did not conclude with the massacre.

Kafr Qasim Massacre (October 1956)
On 29 October 1956, the Israeli government and military decided to enforce a curfew on the Arab villages near the border with Jordan. At 4:30pm on that day, a border police sergeant informed the mayor of Kafr Qasim that a curfew would be in effect starting at 5pm that evening. This presented a significant challenge as hundreds of villagers who had left their homes in the morning for work had no way of being aware of the curfew until they returned home.
Soldiers were instructed that they should "shoot to kill at any person seen outside their home after 17:00, making no distinction between men, women, and children."
When the villagers returned to their homes after 5 pm, border police halted them on the western side of the village. Soldiers required them to disembark from their vehicles, cars, or bicycles and began firing at them from close range. In just one hour, they ruthlessly killed 49 residents of Kafr Qasim, including children.

Sabra and Shatila Massacres (September 1982)
The massacres unfolded within the context of the Israeli invasion of Lebanon in September 1982. Israeli forces had surrounded the Palestinian refugee camps of Sabra and Shatila in West Beirut. The Israeli military authorized the entry of the right-wing Christian Phalangist militia, which was aligned with Israel, into the camps.
During a grim two-day span, from 16 to 18 September, the Phalangists executed a brutal operation that resulted in the loss of a substantial number of Palestinian refugees and Lebanese civilians, with nearly 3,000 lives tragically taken. This massacre triggered international outrage and stirred criticism within Israel.
The Kahan Commission determined that Israeli authorities bore indirect responsibility for the massacre, resulting in the resignation of Israeli Defence Minister Ariel Sharon.
