20-11-2006 Gaza Kids Reality: The Reality of the Israeli Terrorism

Millions of Palestinian children are living under the same conditions if not worse in Gaza. If they escape the Israeli crimes and not get killed, they will lose an arm or a leg, or at best, they lose their right to live like YOUR kids. They are left with nothing in life that relates to childhood, thanks to the occupation.

Can we blame them if they hate the occupation? How long can YOU live in the conditions that these Palestinian children are living under? A day? A week? A year? Imagine that you have to live ALL YOUR LIFE like that!

This little girl doesn't speak the way a child her age would normally speak ... she is MUCH too mature for her age .. is deprived of her entire childhood like MOST children there! How terribly sad that is ...

I know the conditions in refugee camps .. better that you imagine. Is is TERRIBLE, NOBODY on this planet should have to live like that! What shocked me MOST though is what the statement, most Palestinian children had lost their will to live due to the trauma they have from having seen their fathers being beaten up and humiliated ... WHAT ARE THESE ANIMALS DOING TO THESE CHILDREN??? TO A WHOLE POPULATION???
THIS IS A HOLOCAUST, AN ETHNIC CLEANSING, GENOCIDE!!! It is beyond me why the world doesn't wake up!! THE ONE'S WHO KNOW AND DON'T DO THEIR PART TO HELP EVEN THOUGH THEY COULD ARE AS GUILTY AS THE ONES WHO EXECUTE THE CRIMES!! Justice will be done one day - and justice will prevail!

Many of us are parents, true? How do we react when our children are in danger? How do we FEEL and what goes through our heads when our children are harmed? We cry, our hearts bleed, we become angry, we want to PROTECT our children because we love them with every inch of our souls. This little girl has a mother and father who are doing everything in their power to give her a childhood worth having and they have been given no chance to do that under the occupation and the constant attacks from the IOF. She has toys, she has brothers and sisters, she has family (we don't know the details) she WANTS to be happy and cannot. All around her she smells gasoline and sees death. What kind of childhood is this? What would ANY parent do in this case? They would ask for help and HOPE that someone helps them. And some will come forward, and others will look the other way. Those who come forward are those who know that this little girl is just like their own child, that in fact, when even one child is suffering, and in the case of Palestine, ALL of the children, it is YOUR child suffering. This little girl and all the children of Palestine are OUR children who have been given as a blessing from our creator. Please listen to the children, they are ours to protect.
