Picking up the pieces



Um Muneer Tawashi and her grandchildren. For 5 years, the children could not go out to play for fear of getting shot at by a nearby Israeli sniper guarding the Kfar Darom Settlement. The family has lived here for 70 years, and saw the first settlers come (in the 1950s) and go, a few days ago. Posted by Picasa

... for fear of getting shot at by a nearby Israeli sniper ...

Please let me know when Israeli forces have fired on an innocent civilian that has not, at that moment, been a threat to security.

Do you really want me to do that?

I wouldn't even know where to begin. Here's a few for starters Tom Hurndall; Iman al-Hims; Noran Deeb; Mahir Walwil; and on..and on..and on. End post.

Alhamdulillah. I am glad these people have a chance. Leets hope that Palestinian leadership does not let them done as it so often has in the past.

One of my first nights in Rafah we dove for cover at Abu J_'s because the soldier in the tower decided to shoot into the house.
A simple Google search, or a visit to the Al Mezan Centre website would give plenty of examples assuming that is what you were looking for
