Given the poverty he and his family were obviously living in, I was impressed by the state of the art mobile phone he owned, he must have been a very brave lad as well, IDF soldiers had come to the apartment and demanded the Sim card from his phone, but he refused to hand it over, good lad. I was also impressed by the rest of his story, he said he stopped filming when a 64 year old Settler pointed a rifle at the apartment window he was filming from. I know you can have infant prodigies, and I suppose an Israeli Settler is identifiable enough to a Palestinian kid, but how the feck did he know he was 64 years old ?

    I'm still trying to work that one out.

    Claret in B: As sinkov says ''Al Jazeera is no friend of Israel and they say " Hamas action came in response to an Israeli crackdown on Palestinians in occupied East Jerusalem and the storming of Al-Aqsa Mosque.'' Before any action you need a cause, The law of Nature is Action - Reaction. For Hamas this ''storming of the Al-Aqsa Mosque, that can be for them a cause to start the war! Why shouls israel bomb Gaza they were doing nothing to use ( then after their firing of Rockets on May 9th?) That was our cause!
