**Israeli Settlers Issue Stern Warning: “We Don’t Accept Coupons or Americans”**
Following international outrage over reports that Israeli settlers killed an American-Palestinian visiting his family in the West Bank, local settlers have released a clarifying statement entitled “West Bank Rules of Engagement: No Shoes, No Shirt, No Peace, No Service.”
According to the family, the tragic incident occurred just hours after the traveler landed, still clutching his Starbucks order and asking Wi-Fi passwords in flawless English. Inside sources say the settlers confused him for a “free-range influencer” after noticing his selfie-stick and suspicious lack of olives.
“We thought he was there to review a falafel shop,” one nervously explained, “or worse—film a TikTok about ‘Getting Lost in the Holy Land.’ How were we supposed to know he had roots here? For all we knew, he was with the UN or Yelp.”
In response, U.S. State Department officials issued an updated travel advisory for Americans visiting family in the West Bank: “Consider Zoom.” The advisory notes, “While Jerusalem has three-star hotels and slightly stale croissants, the West Bank features cutting-edge medieval feuding. Instagram at your own risk.”
Back home, conservative pundits questioned whether the slain American was really, truly American. “He had a Palestinian flag emoji in his bio,” one TV host noted gravely. “You know what that means? Neither do I, but my producer says I should frown menacingly.”
Meanwhile, settlers have offered to open a “Welcome Center” where American-born visitors can exchange their passports for souvenir T-shirts reading “I Visited the West Bank and All I Got Was This Bulletproof Vest.” Directions to the location are available via Google Maps, but users are warned the route is set to “Adventure Mode.”
As the situation develops, officials recommend practicing your ancestry research with less… personal involvement. Or at least wait until the region unlocks Passive Mode on the next software update.
