kid throws rock at tank


In the introduction, there is a depiction of a young palastinian child throwing a rock at a tank. I lived in Jerusalem when this image surfaced. It was very contriversial. There was an investigation done, because the palastinians used this image to represent a child martyr. There was an investigation done, turns out this kid was shot in the back by a fellow Palastinian.

This just goes to show that information gets manipulated by the palastinians to make their case. What the Israelis have going for them (or sometimes against them) is that they have free press. They cannot manipulate stories, eventually the truth will come out. I find it hard to fathom a situation where the Israelis don't get the short end of the stick. They have done a lot to try to make the situation better for the Palastinians. In fact, the Gaza Strip is in control of the locals. in 2006, the Israelis pulled out of there. in 2000, they offered a deal for a Palastinian state that gave the Palastinians 95% of the land they wanted. The only reason there is occupation is because of the constant violence on the part of terrorists.

What is most disgusting about this documentary is the agenda to appeal to christians. I personally know christian palastinians who have been disowned by their families, and have heard stories of many of them killed by the muslims. In Islam, you cannot leave the religion. When someone converts, he or she faces a lot of pain, and its from the Israelis.

So its still ok for the Gaza strip to be surrounded by the IDF from every side and them not being able to go anywhere in the land that IS theirs but TAKEN away by Zionists without them being stopped by a checkpoint as if it was Nazi Germany. I just want you to know that their is an ethnic cleansing that is happening now and everyone should think twice when they come upon the topic of this issue.

The irony.. So.. wait.. we're supposed to just believe you? How can you talk about information being manipulated, then directly claim something on an internet message board without any form of proof of this investigation.. Hypocritical..

There was and is plenty of kids/teenagers throwing stones.. Don't you see the part where the Israeli soldiers are breaking kids arms and backs so they don't throw stones and rocks? What about all the other kids that have died by the hands of Israeli soldiers? How many children have died by the hands of the Israeli army? The depiction is strongly valid. So how does this also make the information in this documentary invalid?

It's ironic, you say they can't manipulate stories, when that's all they continually do. Why would any Israeli make a story that puts them in the wrong?
