Israeli Occupation Forces shot dead two Palestinian children and injured third in the northern Gaza Strip. The IOF spokeswoman said that a third person who was slightly wounded but that none of those spotted in the area were small children.
The dead boys were evacuated by Palestinian ambulance workers. IOF claims that they were crawling towards the fence near Beit Lahiya and that they had shot at suspicious figures trying to plant an object close to the border fence.
Medical staff at a Gaza hospital said the two were hit in the chest. They were reported to be scouring the area for scrap metal. The boys' families said the two were 13 years old. Suleiman Abu Zeibeida, a brother of one of the dead boys, said they had gone to the beach area to go swimming.
The IOF are a punch of terrorist bloodthirsty liars. How can you shoot someone in the chest if he is crawling?
IOF seen here carry the wounded Palestinian kid on a stretcher after they shot him. It was reported that they he was taken to an Israeli hospital. If this boy survive, his future is guaranteed to be spent behind the bars of Israeli prisons.
Update – Cartoon translation: Take a pil of tranquilizer… and pass by us during the next massacre!!!

isn't it amazing how many of these children were carrying something "suspicious" like book bags or dolls or scrape metal?
I just can't understand why none of the MSM reports asked the question: "How can one be shot in the chest while he is crawling?"
BLIND MEDIA sees only the rockets falling on Sderot, but no one sees the destruction of the IOF shelling on Gaza civilians and the war crimes such as this one. Not a single MSM report called it with it true name; WAR CRIME.
Exactly Haitham. the idea that these children are *born* terrorists or *naturally* terrorists is so pervasive, it makes *sense* to shoot a child crawling on the ground in the chest–you can't be *too* cautious, you know?
It is a *horrific* war crime–
just out of curiosity Haitham–is there independent media in Palestine?
I know there's a few sites that focus exclusively on news coming out of Palestine–but do they post news created by Palestinians living in palestine?
Yes my friend. Here are the best sources from inside Palestine:

thanks so much haitham–i'm forwarding these to some people i know…
These kids were terrorists.
At 13 years old they were told to kill the Israeli terrorists.
Forget My comment!
They were children. They were occupied.
They did what I don't have the balls to do!
They did what they shouldn't have to do.
Don't include children to do your dirty work.
Please let them grow up to a better world.
It can't get any worse.
Please keep your children out of your conflicts.
By the way!
These children were killed in the name of Zionist agression in to Palestein.
This news was told in America as terrorists attacking an Israeli army post.
No mention of age or anything else.
Sorry if my previous post angered anyone.
I hate involving children in anything. But my updates told me that I was wrong in my comments.
These children were innocent victims and I was wrong.
I am sorry for my comments.
Children are our future and I was trying to say we have to do everything we can to protect them.
Obviously, the Israelis don't care.
Again, I appologise. I didnt follow up on the full story.
