Israel uses Caterpillar equipment in apparent extrajudicial killing
Israeli occupation forces used a Caterpillar excavator in the apparent extrajudicial execution of a Palestinian man, using the so-called pressure cooker procedure in which construction equipment is employed as a weapon, analysis by The Electronic Intifada shows.
Caterpillar, based in Peoria, Illinois, has long been the focus of boycott and divestment campaigns for selling equipment Israel uses in human rights abuses and war crimes, including the demolitions of homes and construction of settlements on occupied Palestinian land.
Late on Tuesday night, Israeli forces massed in the town of Surif, near the occupied West Bank city of Hebron, and launched an assault on a house in which they besieged Muhammad al-Faqih. The Israelis eventually demolished most of the house with al-Faqih still inside.
Israel’s internal intelligence agency, the Shin Bet, claims that al-Faqih, from the nearby village of Dura, carried out a shooting near Hebron earlier this month that caused the crash of a car, killing an Israeli settler and injuring his wife.
According to the Tel Aviv newspaper Haaretz, the Shin Bet, whose use of torture is systematic, accused al-Faqih of the killing after obtaining confessions from two other Palestinians who allegedly assisted him, including al-Faqih’s brother.
As the journalist and close observer of Israel’s occupation Marian Houk noted, Israeli media reproduced the Shin Bet’s allegations as fact “without an ounce [or] gram of doubt” and without the need for any judicial process.

Preside candidate Hillary Clinton said in her speech: “I was sitting in the rooms of a hospital in Israel. Holding the hands of men and women whose bodies and lives have been torn apart by a terrorist bomb. The doctor explained to me that the fragments left behind / stuck in the feet, hands and even heads. Therefore I strongly feel that America will never be neutral about the safety and security of Israel. ” Hillary’s attitude makes her 21-year-old Muslim Palestinian population of Gaza to make a letter addressed to Hillary Clinton, Caplon president of the United States. This letter protesting why Hillary seems to only care about Israel, and not to the suffering of the Palestinian people who actually suffer more?
