The article focuses on the video showing how Palestinian Muhammad al-Amsi who was just standing on the rooftop of his home and talking on the phone was shot and severely wounded by an Israeli military sniper during an army raid in the West Bank city of Hebron in August 2016.

The article discusses the color yellow as anti-Semitic after a sticker promoting a boycott of Israel in support of justice in Palestine was seen attached to a package of dates produced in an illegal Israeli settlement in the West Bank, being sold in a supermarket in Dublin, Ireland. Israeli news and general content website Ynet published the photograph and quoted Israeli foreign ministry sources who stated that the use of yellow was reminiscent of days of racism and incitement.

The article reports on the hunger strike of the alleged Palestinian administrative detainee Hana Al-Shalabi. She is entering her eleventh day of hunger strike and her parents have also continued their hunger strike in solidarity, against their daughter's imprisonment without charge or trial by Israel. She was arrested on February 16, 2012 at her home in Burqin village in the Israeli-occupied West Bank. The Palestinian Prisoner Solidarity Network is calling attention to Hana Al-Shalabi's case.

The article reports that Palestinian and head of the Jihad Movement in the West Bank, Adnan Khader, decided to stop drinking liquids as part of his hunger strike. Khader was seized from his home by Israeli occupation forces in the West Bank on December 17, 2011.

The article reports on the participation of Bashar Masri, a Palestinian businessman and chief executive officer (CEO) of Bayti Real Estate Investment Co., in the construction of Rawabi, a luxury real estate project in the occupied West Bank in Palestine. By pursuing the development, Masri appears to be helping Israel strengthen its hold on the Palestinian economy. With such support, it will only make it harder for Palestinian firms to establish themselves against Israel businesses.

The article reports that the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions National Committee (BNC) in Palestine has raised concerns regarding the involvement of Israeli companies in the development of Rawabi, a Palestinian real estate development in the West Bank. BNC calls deeper examinations regarding Israeli businesses by Palestinian political parties, unions and nongovernmental organizations (NGOs). It is asserted that the project addresses the need for housing.

The author offers views on the appeal by the Palestinian Authority (PA) for Palestinians not to buy goods made in Israeli settlements in the West Bank. The author believes the PA effort is apparently intended to weaken and abolish the Palestinian civil society campaign of boycott, divestment and sanctions (BDS). The author also thinks that this effort reassures Israel of the continued cooperation of its puppet regime in Ramallah.

The article focuses on a report released by the Freedom House organization on January 12, 2010 concerning the freedom recession that is being experienced worldwide. Such report tackled two categories of freedom, namely, political rights and civil liberties. Information on the 1967 occupation of the West Bank and Gaza Strip is also presented.

The article discusses how anti-Hamas policies impede recovery of the Gaza Strip. Since the Hamas has seized Gaza, the international community have pursued a policy of isolating Hamas and building up the group's rival, Fatah, which controls the Palestinian Authority (PA) in the West Bank. Because of restrictions and opposition to Hamas, it also appears that the U.S. will not be directly involved in aid programs to Gaza.
