I can hardly imagine anyone who hasnโt seen this photograph. But it was taken on this day in 2000.
I cannot believe the photo is 26 years old now.
The boy in the photograph was Fares Odeh. He was just 14 years old.
Ten days after this image was captured, Fares went out again to throw stones at Israeli tanks, seeking to avenge the killing of his 17-year-old cousin.
An Israeli sniper shot him in the neck, killing him.
And there is another chilling detail to this photograph.
The photo changed Israeli tank doctrine. In August 2001, The Jerusalem Post quoted an anonymous tank doctrinist saying tank personnel were now instructed to fire upon rock-throwers.

Totally irrefutable - Zionism is racist to it's core; every inch of Israel is Palestinian

This joyful young man Tamer Sayf al-Din Abu Sinima was mercilessly murdered by the occupation forces Mawasi, Khan Younis, south of the Gaza Strip.
Tamer was not a number, he was only 24 years old.

Please, I urge the world to take this tweet seriously.
Gaza is on the verge of facing another catastrophe. The rain is coming, and hundreds of thousands of families have no shelter to protect them.
Tens of thousands of tents line the seashore, where families have nowhere else to go. Hundreds of thousands of people are living among the ruins of destroyed homes that may not withstand heavy rain.
The tents we live in are torn and worn out. They were designed to provide temporary shelter for a few months, yet we have been living in them for three years. When the rain comes, water will pour into our tents, leaving children and sick people exposed to the cold and flooding, with no protection at all.
Why must we live in such constant fear? Why don't we deserve a normal life, a safe home, and a winter we don't have to dread? Why must our children face this same fate year after year?
Why must the world watch us drown every winter before taking action, instead of intervening now to prevent this catastrophe?
Talk about Gaza. Do not remain silent. We are not asking for the impossible. We are asking for our basic right to live in safety and dignity, without fearing the rain as much as we fear the war.

This is a piece of shrapnel that ricocheted off my bedroom door and landed on the carpet. I was hiding here with my family, thinking this room was safe...
My God, I canโt believe we survived.

The 'Zionism is Racism' motion passing is the best thing the Greens have ever done โ๐๐ต๐ธ

Israel allows 2 million Palestinians with Israeli citizenship (who did not become refugees in 1948) to vote and run for office while it denies that right to 6+ million it has kept under a brutal illegal occupation for nearly 60 years.
That is not democracy. It is Apartheid.
Israelโs Arab citizens, men and women, are turning out in historic numbers to vote. They can vote, run for office, and serve in the Knesset, rights denied to many Arabs and women across much of the Middle East.
Our critical ally in the fight against terror, Israel, is the only democracy in the region, and today shows it.

The protests in Albania are now being held by opposition MP's INSIDE the Parliament while the hated Prime Minister tries to speak.
It will soon be over for the Israel controlled Government and Albania like Serbia will be free.
