On July 24th, 2014, during renewed Israeli attacks on Palestine, a pre-season friendly soccer match in Austria between Israeli team Maccabi Haifa and French team Lille had to be abandoned in the 86th minute after pro-Palestinian protesters ran onto the pitch waving Palestinian flags and shouting "Free Palestine!"
A fight ensued between some of the soccer players, the protesters, and security personnel. The event made international news, and the protesters were roundly accused of "violently attacking the players" and of "being anti-Semitic" - with Israel again cast in the role of the victim.
On closer examination of the available video footage (see video analysis below), we see a rather different picture. Four protesters ran across the field, but clearly didn't have violence in mind. All they seemed to want to do was get a message across by reminding people that Apartheid Israel is currently engaged in war crimes. Frankly, Austria should be censured for hosting an Israeli sports team in its country at this time. Whatever happened to Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions?
Some say Israeli sports, music, academia and other cultural activities shouldn't be lumped together with the Israeli state's actions. Too bad. If they choose to be associated with that ZioNazi entity, they must accept pariah status and face the consequences of international opprobrium.
Contrary to what the mainstream media claimed, the first 'violent act', which started the fight, was carried out by an Israeli player, who brought one of the protesters to the ground.

When young people from an indigenous tribe in Peru made contact with a settlement in Brazil, they reported violent attacks on elders in their community.
When young people from an indigenous tribe in Peru made contact with a settlement in Brazil, they reported violent attacks on elders in their community.
After years of living in isolation from the outside world, several young members of this "uncontacted" tribe recently entered a nearby settled community in Brazil. Through interpreters, they told harrowing stories about their encounters in the forests.
"The majority of old people were massacred by non-Indians in Peru, who shot at them with firearms and set fire to the houses of the uncontacted," an interpreter named Zé Correia reported through Survival International, a group that advocates for tribal people's rights. "They say that many old people died, and that they buried three people in one grave. They say that so many people died that they couldn't bury them all and their corpses were eaten by vultures."

At least 100 people have been killed by Israeli shelling as Operation Protective Edge entered its 22nd day on Tuesday.
The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) bombing of Khan Yunis and Rafah in southern Gaza has nearly completely erased five whole families, writes Haaretz.
Reporters present at the site of the intense shelling say that for now it is impossible to tell for sure how many people have been killed since many are missing or buried under the rubble of ruined buildings.

A firefighter in the Donetskoblenergo power company office building damaged during a rocket and mortar attack on Gorlovka, Donetsk region.
The town of Gorlovka witnessed more shelling Tuesday morning, RIA Novosti news agency reported.
"Over the past 24 hours 17 residents of Gorlovka, including three children, have been killed in the center of the town, which got under artillery fire. 43 civilians have been wounded," Itar-Tass reported the press service of the Gorlovka city administration as saying.
A day earlier, the Donetsk region administration said that 14 civilians, including five children, had being killed in Sunday's shelling of Gorlovka.
Survivors of the attacks say they've gotten accustomed to spending most of their day hiding in basements.
Border, immigration and customs staff feel unprepared to deal with people coming to the UK with possible cases of the Ebola virus, a union leader says.
Immigration Service Union (ISU) general secretary Lucy Moreton said her members needed more information on the threat.
But the Border Force has insisted staff have been given guidance on how to identify and deal with suspected cases.
Almost 700 people have died in West Africa since the first case of Ebola was detected in February.
Foreign Secretary Philip Hammond said the government was taking the current outbreak - the world's deadliest to date - and the threat to the UK "very seriously".
Ebola is a viral illness - initial symptoms can include a sudden fever, intense weakness, muscle pain and a sore throat - that can cause internal and external bleeding.
It kills up to 90% of those infected but patients have a better chance of survival if they receive early treatment.

Palestinians wait in line to buy bread outside a bakery in Gaza City.
Palestinians wait in line to buy bread outside a bakery in Gaza City.
The toll is now greater than in both previous rounds of fighting between Israel and Hamas. Israeli military losses are also significantly higher.
Palestinian officials in Gaza said on Thursday that 8,200 people had been wounded in the four-week operation. Up to 80% of the Palestinian casualties were civilians, according to local non-government organisations and the UN.
Three civilians on the Israeli side and 56 soldiers have been killed so far.
Comment: 3 Israeli civilians. Compared to over 1,100 Palestinians. This is not a war, it's a genocide.
In Gaza City, Abu Ahmed, 65, said the situation was the worst he had ever known. "I have experienced everything - the 1967 war, two intifada [uprisings]. By chance we are alive. But we don't know if we die now, today or tomorrow," the shopkeeper said.

The man, who was awaiting processing at an immigration centre run by security firm G4S in Gatwick, was feared to be carrying the illness, which has killed a lot more than 700 individuals in West Africa.
Immigration employees isolated the man and tested him for Ebola earlier this week, but he did not have the infection.
Nonetheless the incident shows how uncomplicated it would be for the deadly disease to enter Britain via illegal channels.
Border staff at UK airports also claim they have not been educated to deal with suspected circumstances coming into the country.
Comment: The British government is trying to contain the hysteria, by claiming that the infection is not easily transmitted, however that is not necessarily correct.

Also consider the following excerpt from the Cassiopaean Experiment dated 26 of July, 2014:
Q: (Data) I would like to ask about this hole that opened up in Siberia that makes like a sinkhole that also has ejected material around. What caused this hole?
A: Gases exploding within the earth. We told you that an infinitesimal slowing of the earth rotation would cause things to "open up". Expect more of that in future as well. You did not ask what sparked the "explosion"? We can tell you to once again think of greater current flow.
Q: (L) So an electrically sparked inner earth explosion. That's creepy!
(Pierre) Earth opening up, gas released, and more electric current discharged.
(Perceval) I wonder could that be caused by a lightning strike, for example?
A: Yes.
Q: (L) So a lightning strike could strike the earth, and if the gas was within a...
(Pierre) These crazy fires everywhere... Gas, lightning, fireball, boom boom.
(Kniall) Did something like this happen in Harlem? There was a gas explosion in a building, and then the appearance of a sinkhole. It could have been the same kind of thing.
(L) Remember some time ago we asked about all the fires, and they talked about electrical sparking or something then? Even back then. It's not all necessarily fireballs.
(Perceval) They said that all those fires in like frozen land with scrub and bogs was gas.
(L) It's freakin' gas being released, and sparks.

Bank says decision to close the accounts wasn't 'taken lightly' and denies religion played a part.
Bank says decision to close the accounts wasn't 'taken lightly' and denies religion played a part.
Some of the organisations affected by the bank's decision include a London-based Islamic think tank and Finsbury Park Mosque, where Abu Hamza, who was recently convicted of 11 charges of terrorism in a New York court, served as an imam.
Khalid Oumar, one of the trustees of the mosque in north London, told the BBC they received a letter from HSBC last week notifying the treasurer that the account would be terminated because it falls "outside our risk appetite".
But Mr Oumar questioned the bank's motive, adding that the letters did not provide "any reason why the accounts were closed", which he argues is part of an "Islamophobic campaign targeting Muslim charities in the UK".
In response, HSBC said decisions to end a customer account "are not taken lightly" and insisted that they are "absolutely not based on the race or religion". The bank said it wouldn't comment on individual accounts or businesses.
