Nearly a thousand children rotting in a dark jail.....

....for the crime of throwing stones.

I came across this comment at a news website which puts the whole question of what is happening in that part of the world in the simplest of terms:


I wonder if you took a poll in the United States…an honest poll….and asked every American whether they thought it would constitute a “crime” for a twelve year old kid to pick up a stone and throw it at the bulldozer of an occupying army, coming onto his family's property to bulldoze his family's home that had been in his family for 12 generations, I wonder what they would say ?
