Shooting the Donkey (as Old Woman Hides Behind it) - Israel's Open-Fire Policy

Al Faraheen, East of Khan Younis, The Gaza Strip, 7th April 2009

Palestinian farmers and human rights workers from the International Solidarity Movement come under fire from Israeli troops.

The farmers from Al Faraheen in the southern Gaza Strip are harvesting crops on Palestinian land in the "buffer zone". Israeli soldiers, as a matter of policy and from positions on their side of the Green Line, shoot at anyone within this area.

Typically their "warning shots" come dangerously close, and occassionally the intent is to kill or maim, as is evident in these videos:

Thats true man,SO true. for example.. take the the city called" lod" in israel . this city contain israelis and israeli's arabs. guess what , 100m from the theater of the city ,the Cultural Center.... those arabs lives in sheds like a transit camp from the 50'. and guess what u can find at the entrance of the "house" ? you right , bmw ,mercedes etc. instead of give their children a good education etc. this way the dont pay taxes , the oposite. the receive money on each kid.

@MrRickelk i know eh, i love at the very end " god will help " its that kind of sick self delusion that keeps these people oppressed, if they didnt act like animals the Israeli gov would treat them with more respect. thats one thing muslims have never been able to do as a culture and that is take responsibility for their own probelms, if the muslims were any other religion there wouldnt be a "middle east conflict".
