Protests erupted in the West Bank, Gaza and East Jerusalem as well as on Israel's geo-politically sensitive northern borders, as Palestinians clashed with Israeli troops and police, and hundreds were injured.
Demonstrators commemorating Nakba day, marking the 1948 war in which hundreds of thousands of people became refugees after being forced out of their homes at the creation of Israel, were met with live gunfire, rubber bullets, stun grenades and teargas.
Israel accused Syria of provoking the confrontations to divert attention from internal arrests, and said attempts to breach its borders were a provocation intended to exploit Palestinian nationalism in the wake of regional unrest. An Israeli military spokesman said the protests bore "Iran's fingerprints".

I'm begining to see how this works.
In Syria, they open fire on unarmed protestors who are actually Israeli agents.
In Libya, they open fire on unarmed protestors who are actually foreign al-Qaeda terrorists.
In Iran, they open fire on unarmed protestors who are actually western collaborationists.
In Bahrain, they open fire on unarmed protestors who are actually shia islamic revolutionaries.
And now in Israel, they open fire on unarmed protestors who are actually Iranian agents.
The middle east is confusing, especially on places like revleft where some posters believe bits and pieces of this bullshit but only bits and pieces that suit them.
