Israeli forces shoot, kill 12-year-old Palestinian boy near Hebron

http://www.maannews.net/eng/ViewDetails.aspx?ID=719498

HEBRON (Ma'an) -- A 12-year old Palestinian boy was shot dead by Israeli soldiers while playing in front of his home in al-Fawwar refugee camp south of Hebron in the southern West Bank early Sunday, medics told Ma'an.

Palestinian medical sources at Hebron's al-Ahli Hospital told Ma'an that Khalil Muhammad Ahmad al-Anati arrived at the hospital after being shot in the back.

They said that the gunshot entered through the victim's lower abdomen and exited through his groin.

Doctors tried their best to resuscitate the boy and stop severe bleeding, but they announced his death shortly after he arrived in the emergency room.

Will there be an investigation or.......more claims that the IDF does not target civilians?


Believe it or not, up to now I accepted their claim as no civilised person would do so but I need to see an explanation for this apparent murder of an innocent.

in this fashion.

The IDF stock excuses will be carted out for the hasbaristas to lap up and belch forth.

If the number of Palestinians that were killed by the IDF were transferred to any major US city then the mayor, police chief and all involved would be investigated, tried and convicted for murder. In addition no US politician, or public for that matter, would tolerate these actions on US soil so why do US politicians tolerate it while giving billions in US military aid to murderous Israel: the only supposed democracy in the Mid East?

Literally. That poor boy and his family. It's disgusting to see on social networks how some are cheering this sort of thing on as sport. There are some evil, wicked people in this world.
