category national | miscellaneous | news report author Thursday December 19, 2002 17:48author by Shane Report this post to the editors

By Arnon Regular, Ha'aretz Correspondent and Ha'aretz Service

Palestinian sources reported Thursday that an 11-year-old Palestinian girl was shot to death In the Gaza Strip town of Rafah during a gunfight between IDF troops and armed Palestinian militants. The Israeli army said it was checking the report.

Witnesses said soldiers stationed at the Tarmit military outpost on the border with Egypt opened machine-gun fire at a residential area, adding one of the gunshots hit the child in the chest.

Hospital officials identified the victim as Nadda Maddi.

Thousands of mourners buried the body of a 15-year-old youth from Rafah Thursday who was shot dead Wednesday afternoon, also by Israeli soldiers stationed on the border.

The latest fatality was the third child or youth to be killed this week by Israeli soldiers in the southern Gaza Strip towns of Rafah and Khan Younis.

In overnight raids throughout the West Bank, troops rounded up more than 20 Palestinians suspected of involvement in attacks on Israelis, the military said.

IDF forces are acting correctly and this article is trying to tarnish their image. The Israeli army was obviously defending itself from a dangerous 11 year old palestinian terrorist. Those palestinian children are lethal dangerous people!


Shalom. But to Israelis only.

I agree completely, that child could have been thinking of becoming a "terrorist" when she grew up. The Israeli "security forces" were just making sure that she could not engage in any "terrorist acts" in the future. A clear case exists for Dubya to increase aid to the IDF in order to assist in fighting against such a serious "terrorist" threat. I am sure Tony would agree. Perhaps Bertie and Brian would too.
