The Palestinian death toll is mounting — not because of what Israel did or did not do, but because of violence between the Palestinian terrorist groups Hamas and Fatah. Remember “The Photo that Started it All?” It was a lie perpetrated by the mainstream media to demonize Israel, and to legitimize Palestinian terrorism. Now that Palestinians are killing each other, including innocent children, where is the media outcry? From the BBC:

Deadly battles between rival Palestinian factions Hamas and Fatah have continued in the Gaza Strip, leaving at least five more dead.

Saturday’s deaths raise the toll since Thursday night to at least 22. …

Clashes erupted in Gaza after weeks of relative calm and renewed efforts to form a national unity government. Both sides say they have suspended talks.

Those killed on Saturday included a boy of 11 or 12 who was hit during a shootout late at night between the two factions in the northern Gaza Strip.

Earlier at least one person died in a gun battle near Gaza’s Islamic University, while another died in a car explosion - rumoured to be caused when explosives being carried in the vehicle exploded.
