“My daughter, beside me, was charred. She burned and I could not help her,” the woman says, in a state of shock.
“And my husband was burned and charred. I know nothing about them. This is what happened, do you know what happened?” she wondered, while sobbing.
“We ran out of the tent while we were burning with fire. This is my daughter and she was burning,” she said, as the camera moved to a young Palestinian girl with burn marks on her hands, face, and all over her body.”
“I was hurt, too, my fingers were broken, I don’t know how. I am shocked, I don’t know what happened,” she said.

Just when you think you can’t cry anymore…
The weapons industry, the U.K and U.S government has a lot to answer for. Greed and power, illusions. The resilience of the Palestinian people is admirable and will overcome. The empty vessel called Netanyahu will be histories reminder that there are always psychopaths in positions of power put there by ignorance .
