JERUSALEM — Amichai Oster was in Salt Lake City when Hamas attacked southern
Israel on Oct 7. Within days, the 24-year-old was on a plane, among thousands of
Americans and American Israelis who rushed to join the fight in Gaza. Three
months later, he was dead.
Oster was killed when an explosion hit his combat unit in northern Gaza on New
Year’s Day, one of at least 23 American citizens to be killed in recent months
while serving in the Israeli military or police, according to the U.S. Embassy
in Jerusalem. Though U.S. citizens make up less than 2 percent of Israel’s
population, they account for almost 10 percent of the country’s war dead since
the start of the ground invasion in Gaza.

Good. He was fighting for unjust causes: genocide and apartheid. He deserved to
die. Everyone who holds his beliefs should die, painfully.
