A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words

The little girl’s mother looks at the Israeli soldier with hate and scorn for his insanity. She wants to escort the children into safety. It looks as if there is a confrontation going on with the Palestinian youth and Israeli soldiers. The cowardly soldier could be aiming the gun at Palestinian stone throwers by hiding behind the two little children. Perhaps he is using them as human shields to take cover. It looks more like the Zionist soldier is threatening the terrified little girl with his gun.

Isn’t this an act of instilling a psychological fear on the minds of little children? The two little girls seem to be terrified and shocked. What if the two children and their mother were Jewish and the soldier aiming the gun is a Palestinian Arab? What would the reaction around the world be then?
