Tears of Gaza Page #3

Synopsis: In a rough style, by way of unique footage, the brutal consequences of modern wars are exposed. The film also depicts the ability of women and children to handle their everyday life after a dramatic war experience. Many of them live in tents or in ruins without walls or roofs. They are all in need of money, food, water and electricity. Others have lost family members, or are left with seriously injured children. Can war solve conflicts or create peace? The film follows three children through the war and the period after the ceasefire.

This way it will only burn more.

Abu Halima family.

We were sitting at home after the land invasion on Saturday night.

They started launching missile around our home.

Of course, the children were screaming and crying in panic.

We didnt know what we could do for them

We were not able to escape because of the bombs falling around us.

Late afternoon Sunday the army targeted our home while were in it.

We were just sitting at home we weren't fighters. Nothing like it.

They killed the children, all of them under 12 years of age.

They killed five people. One of them was my father, that makes it six.

They bombed us with phosphorus bombs, the kind that burns.

I was about seven meters away from the missile

I had my little daughter with me, she was about eight months old

I put her aside and walked into the room just as the second missile hit

I tried to enter but I couldn't, there was black smoke so I couldn't-

-because of the fire and the smoke caused by the phosphorus bombs.

We removed the dead and I removed my wife -

-and my daughter Farah.

but there were no ambulances or paramedics there to help us.

They burned her in front of my eyes, burned her with the phosphorus.

And Zaid, and Hamzah and Abdurraheem, and my father.

What did they do to deserve this?. These children?

He who lauched the missiles, does he have no religion?

He aimed his missiles at us, knowing where we were in the house.

He hit that exactly in the middle of the room, where we were.

It means the it was planned and premeditated.

I don't know, I don't knows. God grant me the patience.

There is no forgiveness, where can I get forgiveness from?

Forgive those who kill little children?

Are these children fight to be killed ?

HASBUNALLAHU WANI'MAL WAKIIL.

The most important thing is that she is happy. That's how I want her happy.

She is my pampered girl, and I love her very much.

January 2009
