Two Palestinian youths perish at Israeli hands
Israeli forces have assaulted a Palestinian refugee camp north of al-Quds (Jerusalem), triggering clashes that have claimed the lives of two young Palestinians.
On Friday, scores of troops swooped on the Shu’fat camp, blocking all of its entries and thus prompting confrontation with the Palestinians, the Palestinian Safa news website reported.
The victim, identified as Ahmad Jamal Salah, suffered injuries during the raid, which led to his death on Saturday.
Three other Palestinian youths sustained injuries in the clashes; one of them was detained by Israeli forces while suffering from severe hemorrhage. However, reports say he later succumbed to his wounds.
The fatality brought to 10 the number of the Palestinians killed by Israeli live fire in the Palestinian territories over the last two days.

Can’t keep 2¢ to self? US claims it’s ‘wrong time’ for long-awaited Russia-Japan peace treaty talks
“Again, we still maintain that, broadly speaking, it’s not time for business as usual with Russia on Ukraine,” Kirby said when addressed the issue during a daily briefing by the State Department on Thursday.
The fact that Russian airstrikes against Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL) are now making headlines “doesn’t mean we’ve turned a blind eye to Ukraine and to what Russia continues to do there,” he stressed.

Videos emerge online showing Israeli police shooting Palestinian woman ‘execution-style’
In one video shot through what looks like a glass window of a truck or a bus, a woman in white clothes with a black bag is seen amid shouting armed men, allegedly Israeli police officers. While the person in white seems to be holding her hands up, gunfire follows and the person falls to the ground.
Belal Dabour from Gaza, who describes himself as “a Palestinian doctor living in Gaza” has posted videos on Twitter, and said it was not filmed by him, but “paradoxically it was posted first by Israelis.” “She posed no threat,” Dabour said. He added that the woman was “reported dead.”
Another video, taken from a different angle, shows the same scene.

US says it is ‘deeply concerned’ over escalating violence
White House spokesman urges ‘cooler heads’ to prevail, ‘restoration of status quo’ on Temple Mount
October 7, 2015, 11:32 pm
The White House expressed “deep concern” over a spate of violence that has gripped Israel Wednesday, calling on both sides to work to calm tension that has led to a string of terror attacks and clashes across the West Bank, Jerusalem and elsewhere.
White House spokesman Josh Earnest said the US “condemns in the strongest possible terms violence against Israeli and Palestinian civilians.”
He called on “all parties to take affirmative steps to restore calm and refrain from actions and rhetoric that would further inflame tensions in that region of the world.”
Asked by a reporter if the latest spate of Palestinian terror attacks and West Bank clashes that left four Israelis and three Palestinian protesters dead marked the start of a “third intifada,” the White House spokesman declined to answer, instead calling for “cooler heads” to prevail.
“I wouldn’t predict at this point what the future holds. What we’re hopeful is that despite the significance of the disagreements, that cooler heads will prevail, at least in preventing further violence and preventing a further escalation of an already tense situation,” he said.

WATCH: 2 videos of the violence in Israel
The violence in Israel continued on Friday with multiple stabbings and shootings. Hamas’ chief in the Gaza Strip declared a third intifada, and some were inclined to believe him.
In the morning, an Israeli Jew stabbed four Arabs in an apparent revenge attack for Palestinian terrorism. The victims suffered light to serious injuries.
Around noon, a Palestinian man stabbed an Israeli police officer stationed in the West Bank settlement of Kiryat Arba and was killed in the process. Shortly thereafter, a Palestinian teenager stabbed a 16-year-old Israeli in Jerusalem, inflicting minor injuries.
In the afternoon, five Palestinians were killed and 35 were wounded at a riot near the Israel-Gaza border. Reports say that when Palestinian protestors hurled burning tires and rocks at Israeli border police, the Israeli officers opened fire.

Israeli forces kill 2 Palestinian teens, injure 10 people in Gaza
Israeli regime forces have killed two Palestinian teenagers and injured 10 more people in the besieged Gaza Strip in clashes with protesters near the border fence in southern Gaza.
Local medics with Gaza’s emergency medical services said on Saturday that 13-year-old Marwan Barbakh and 15-year-old Khalil Othman were shot dead by Israeli police forces during anti-Israel protests and clashes east of the city’s Khan Yunis neighborhood.
The latest killings by Israeli forces came a day after similar clashes killed seven Palestinian protesters and wounded 145 more in the bloodiest battles in the Israeli- blockaded territory since the summer 2014 war.
This is while the Israeli military claimed that “Palestinians entered the perimeter along the security fence, approached the fence, hauled rocks and rolled burning tires at it” during a “violent riot” in southern Gaza.
Israeli troops fired warning shots in the air, but when that failed to stop the Palestinian protesters, “they fired toward main instigators”, an Israeli spokeswoman further claimed as cited in an AFP report.
According to the report, clashes between the angry Palestinians and the Israeli regime forces were also raging near the Erez crossing on the enclave’s northern border, east of Gaza City, as well as in central Gaza, where the Israeli military claimed “tens of suspects breached the fence.”

Riots in Nazareth, Ramle as unrest continues
Several arrested in violent demonstrations across Israel, West Bank, after two separate terror attacks in Jerusalem
October 10, 2015, 7:15 pm
At least ten Israeli Arab protesters in the central city of Ramle were arrested and five more were detained in the northern city of Nazareth in violent clashes with Israeli police forces on Saturday.
In Nazareth, some 1,500 Israeli Arabs took to the streets “in protest of the Israeli occupation,” Channel 2 reported. The demonstrators also hailed a local Arab woman who attempted to stab an Israeli security guard in a suspected terror attack on Friday. She was shot by security forces and is being treated in hospital.
In Ramle, police said 10 were arrested after a group of at least 100 protesters threw stones at police during a protest against the Israeli government.
A similar protest was to take place in Haifa later Saturday.
The protests come after a week of spiraling violence between Israelis and Palestinian, as two more terror attacks hit Jerusalem on Saturday, the 13th and 14th stabbings targeting Jews since October 3, when a Palestinian terrorist killed two Israelis in Jerusalem’s Old City.

Does Susan Rice think Benjamin Netanyahu is a racist?
Dennis Ross’ book about the United States-Israel relationship is about to come out, and it includes a bombshell revelation about tensions between President Barack Obama and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Ross, in a passage excerpted from the book Thursday in Politico, says that Susan Rice, the U.S. national security adviser, was so furious with Netanyahu’s angry reaction to news of an acceleration in Iran nuclear talks in November 2013 that she told Abraham Foxman, the Anti-Defamation League’s then-director, that Netanyahu did everything but “use the ‘N-word’ in describing the president.”
Ross — the former peace negotiator who worked for Obama on Middle East issues, including Iran says — says he understood Rice to be accusing Netanyahu not of racism, but of attacking the president in nearly every other way. Ross’ book is titled “Doomed to Succeed: The U.S.-Israel Relationship From Truman to Obama.”
