Israeli military sends in bulldozers to demolish homes of Palestinian killers

The homes of four Palestinians who carried out deadly attacks against Israelis were demolished by the Israeli military on Saturday. The demolition orders were carried out in the West Bank after clearance from the supreme court. The three homes in Nablus belonged to attackers who killed an Israeli couple in front of their children in the West Bank on October 1, the Israeli military said. The other home, near Ramallah, belonged to a man who killed an Israeli on his way home from a basketball game, it claimed.

In the past two months Palestinians have killed 14 Israelis, mainly in stabbing attacks, while 81 Palestinians have been killed, including 51 said by Israel to have been involved in assaults. The rest died in clashes with Israeli security forces in the West Bank. Israel has renewed a home demolition tactic that it says is a legal and effective tool to deter attacks. Critics say the tactic amounts to collective punishment.

Even if they demolish it, we don’t care. We are proud of what they did
