Israel war against Palestinian children

“During an eight-day Israeli onslaught on the blockaded Gaza Strip in Mid November Israeli forces killed and injured many Palestinians in the tiny coastal enclave. Children who make up more than fifty five percent of the territory’s population were the hardest hit. Many children were killed or injured during the recent Israeli attacks.”

The previous article I posted was written on June 26, 2012; I am posting this video as a follow-up and proof that these actions against Palestinian children are still continuing as of November 26, 2012. Hopefully the knowledge that the problem is still prevalent will spark action against injustices against the globe’s most innocent individuals, children.

Mistreatment of Palestinian Children by Israelis

“A belief that every Palestinian child is a potential terrorist may be leading to a “spiral of injustice” and breaches of international law in Israel‘s treatment of child detainees in military custody…”

This article by The Guardian’s Harriet Sherwood describes horrors that Palestinian children are facing at the hands of Israelis. They suffer psychologically and physically from the treatment they receive. The article was written in June, but the issues prevail today. Article link embedded in photo.
