The violence of the#Gaza#conflict has spread to the West Bank where six Palestinians have reportedly been killed and scores wounded in the past 24 hours in the biggest clashes with Israeli forces for several years.The Israeli military was put on high alert in the West Bank on Friday, which has been declared a "day of rage" by Palestinian factions.Three Palestinians were shot dead in the occupied West Bank in separate incidents involving both the Israeli army and a civilian who appeared to be a Jewish settler, medics and witnesses said.

I hope the Palestinians in the West Bank continue protesting day-after-day. The march was highly symbolic, as they marched from Ramallah to the checkpoint blocking them from Jerusalem and the south of the West Bank. A real shame the Isareli army over-reacted, but I hope all the other cities in the West Bank follow suit.
