Palestinian Children Honor Tom Hurndall
http://www.melbourne.indymedia.org/news/2004/01/60551.php

Today at 11am about 150 children from the Children's Parliament along side Palestinians and Internationals working with the ISM and a member of the Madison / Rafah Sister City Project joined together today to commemorate the life and passing of Thomas Hurndall.

Children and Internationals carried signs protesting the war crimes committed by the Israeli military against unarmed Palestinian civilians and children. Chants in Arabic celebrated "the life and heroic death of the martyr Thomas Hurndall". Mourners then placed flowers on the site where Tom had been shot, beside a roadblock about 100 meters away from an Israeli military sniper tower on the occupation wall that divides Rafah Palestine from Rafah Sinai.
