near his residence in the Bedouin village in the northern Gaza
Strip, March 1, 2002. A neighbor watching 20 meters away on his
balcony told Reuters that an Israeli tank crewman had beckoned
a group of children to approach his vehicle, and Mahmoud was
then gunned down by four bullets of the tank's machine gun when
the party came near. The boy's body remained on the scene until
the tank left the area. REUTERS/Ahmed Jadallah; (2) An unidentified Palestinian woman

PMWATCH
-- March 1, 2002 -- Yet more horrorible proof of the IDF's criminal
practice of cold blooded killing of children. The case against the IDF
is massive, overwhelming, and yet, no outcries of disgust and outrage.
To this date, no editorials have been written or expressions of indignation voiced
against the murder and the lies that have accompanied it trying
to cover it up.
Please
spread this heart breaking photograph (link is provided below) by filling your contact info
and clicking "send". Ask them why they have not dispatched
their reporters to cover this story in-depth the way they send
those reporters to cover the victims of suicide bombings. And
why haven't they expressed their outrage over the outward policy
of killing children as a way of pressuring Palestinians to turn
against the Palestinian Authority, the way they rail against Arafat
and Hamas?
