to live in Palestine?

We were given the right.

We'd lost our homes,

we'd lost everything,

so that's why we went.

So it was OK for you

to occupy my country?

That's not how it was.

Then how was it?

We were Jews.

We had no land of our own.

- You are f***ing terrorists!

- No.

You take our homes.

Move our people from their land.

You treat us like dogs.

You want Palestine

without the Palestinians.

You think you are

better than us.

Oh, that's not true.

So where is your son?

He's still occupying my country,

isn't he?

- No.

- Then where is he?

He is dead.

The world is full of suffering.

The Jews think they have

more right to suffer

than anyone else.

Hello.

Hello?

There's no-one there.

The number

you are calling is...

Hello.

Hello, Jamal.

The number

you have called is disconnected.

Please check the number

before calling again.

He doesn't want to speak to you.

You need a doctor.

No. No, don't...

don't gag me, please.

I... I won't call out. L-I...

I need to sleep.

Help me.

Oh, my God. Oh, help me.

My pills.

Oh, I need my pills.

It's my heart.

My heart pills.

I need my pills.

Wake up. Wake up.

My heart pills.

I could die.

Please... untie me.

Please.

Untie me. I'll get my pills.

God! Come on.

- Please. Untie me!

- Hey, hey.

Oh!

"Despite all efforts

by our surgeons,

"your son succumbed

to his wounds

"early this morning.

"All at Sadan Command share

in your family's grief at this time

"and deeply regret his loss."

Excuse me.

Um, I would like to report...

- Name, please.

- Oh, uh, Mrs Lippmann.

- Back at my home there is...

- Balaclava Police.

Just take a seat over there,

madam.

I'll be with you in a moment.

Where did this happen? Yep.

Right. Just come in over here.

OK. Mrs Lippmann.

Mrs Lippmann?

Oh, God help me.

What have I done?

How dare you?!

How dare you bring that

into my home?

Could that explode

if you take it off?

Take it off.

Why have you done this?

I said, take it off.

Why are you helping me?

Why didn't you blow yourself up

like the other man?

I think, when the time came

to actually kill people...

...you couldn't do it, could you?

I am a coward.

No.

Not doing such a thing

doesn't mean you are a coward.

Something stopped you.

What was it?

What was it stopped you?

Tell me what stopped you.

I am a soldier.

You are not a soldier.

I am ready to avenge

the blood of generations,

to strike terror

into the infidels...

You kill innocent people.

- YOU kill innocent people!

- No.

I'm talking about

ordinary people.

Innocent people

who are murdered.

Innocent people die every day

at the hands of the Jews

in my country.

They occupy my country,
