A heartbreaking parting shot of Ahmad Jazar, taken the day before he was killed. His mother’s hand is on his shoulder, as if she is about to hug him; they both smile slightly as they look straight into the camera. The photo was taken by Ahmad’s older sister, Mira, an interior design student of 19, in Nablus, when Ahmad was visiting his mother. Ahmad had asked his sister to take their picture. No one imagined that it would be his last.

The next day, January 19, Ahmad was shot by an Israel Defense Forces soldier from a distance of a few dozen meters, in his hometown of Sebastia, in the northern West Bank. At the time, he was standing near the entrance to a kindergarten run by the international Save the Children organization. Images of cheerful children, naïve and colorful, adorn the stone fence around the building. Next to it Ahmad, a 15-year-old boy from a poor family, collapsed to the ground, bleeding, and died.

      Weird that most of the people spreading terrorist propaganda here are the same telling that “he is an Israeli spy” or “he does not live in Palestine”.

      What can I say. I finally see people predicating judgments towards Israel but never towards “Palestinian authorities” (terrorist groups) that they did everything in their power to kill, imprisoned and destroy lives of their fellow citizens by giving terrorist education to children for then go inside another country and kill in cold blood civilians.

      Weird also that people like you absolutely erase from there memory movements like “We want to live” in Palestine where all of them got imprisoned and nobody ever talked about it.

      Casually you people are the same that (always casually) fill up subreddits like Worldnews.

      Now that you know the facts you should sit down from the podium of misinformation and check the facts without glorifying one of the other side of the organizations involved.

      You know nothing and it shows.
