MIDEAST: Palestinian Children Face Daily Settler Attacks Getting to School
Australia / Australia
23-Nov-2009 (7 comments)

AT TUWANI, Nov 23  (IPS)  - Being able to travel to school in relative safety is something children all over the
world take for granted. But, for Palestinian children living in the shadow of the
ubiquitous and illegal Israeli settlements dotting the West Bank, simply walking
to school can be a terrifying experience.

”It is really scary walking to school. We never know when the settlers will
attack us and beat us,” says Rima Ali, 10, from the village of Tuba in the
southern West Bank, about two hours drive south of Jerusalem.

”Every day we have to watch out that the settlers are not in the valley ahead
of us and if we see them we run away,” Ali told IPS.

Ali still bears the scar from when a settler pushed her causing her to fall to
the ground and cut herself below the eye.

Hundreds of Palestinian children in Tuba and the surrounding Palestinian
villages face the same daily predicament as they try to reach school in the
Bedouin village of At Tuwani.

Situated on a hilltop overlooking At Tuwani are the Israeli settlement of
Ma'on and the extended settlement outpost of Havot Ma'on.

The only road which previously connected Palestinians to neighbouring
villages and to the nearby Palestinian town of Yatta - a 10-minute drive away
- has been appropriated for the exclusive use of settlers. Palestinians are
banned from driving on it.

Read this carefully, you seem to suffer from lack of attention:

He would probably have thought the same about the US and UK that an untold similar cases have happened. But for some who are too busy 'licking' US and UK & Israel behind can't see much beyond their hatred of Iran and Iranians. 

As for this:

There is however a HUGE difference between fascists killing other people, SS killing Jews, Stalin killing no russians, US or UK killing Iraqis, etc. AND Mullahs killing their own people. Isn't it?

For a Bozo like you, there may be a difference but hopefully you will learn soon that after death the reason for is really meaningless. There is no excuse to kill. Only Zionists and fascists think killing others comes with morality ticket. But as i said, you are hopefully going to find that out sooner than you think! ;0)

I drink to that!

So, you're admitting that he would have said: What f@#!'n Fascists! There is however a HUGE difference between fascists killing other people, SS killing Jews, Stalin killing no russians, US or UK killing Iraqis, etc. AND Mullahs killing their own people. Isn't it?

What Desmond Tutu would have said if he had visited IRI while people were beaten during peacful demonstrations these past 5 months? Any idea of what?

He would probably have thought the same about the US and UK that an untold similar cases have happened. But for some who are too busy 'licking' US and UK & Israel behind can't see much beyond their hatred of Iran and Iranians. 

No one is a bigger apartheid regime than the IRI regime. it has apartheid policies against women, against religious minorities, against ethnic minorities, against gays, against moderate shites, against pretty much everyone else besides Mullahs!

You support that apartheid regime, don’t you Shah Gholam?

I suggest you to refer to dictionary for the meaning of 'aparthied' before making an ass of yourself in public with shear stupidity!

-----------------------------------------------------

Mr. Kashani AKA Timflyed and mardom Azar, will you guys see to it that the very Iranians that you claim your beat your chests for deserve to know what your religions are. Why have you guys always chicken out ?

Excerpts:

BISHOP DESMOND TUTU, the South African Nobel Prize winner, described
how he saw on his visit to Israel "much like what happened to us black
people in South Africa. I have seen the humiliation of the Palestinians
at checkpoints and roadblocks, suffering like us when young white
police officers prevented us from moving about" (1). Comparisons
between apartheid South Africa and Israel/Palestine have often been
made, but not always clearly explained. Many factors have made the
comparison attractive.
