New update today from Palestine.
Was trembling with tears, grief and rage in Nabi Saleh. I lost track of how many children, people Bassam and Manal told us were injured, killed, psychologically traumatized. One child (a, two year old), would not let her mother feed her or change her for a year after one attack. Israeli soldiers knowingly shot tear gas into a home full of the village’s children and women. With no exit, the women handed their children out of the second story window to people below. The children thought their mothers were trying to kill them. The tear gas canisters are made in Pennsylvania.
“I have to be honest,” Manal told us. “Your tax dollars are killing us.”
