I am saying to the world, it's not fair what the israelis are doing to us.

My son is also murdered.

It is not fair.. Enough, enough.

June 2009

First we were sitting at home and we were chatting.

Then someone came knocking on the door.

My father went to see who it was.

Just then we heard the sound of an explosion.

We went to the door and we didn't see my father.

There was a lot of smoke at the entrance of the house.

We didn't see anything.

So we walked out into the street, shouting for him.

We didn't find him, then we went back to the entrance of the house.

The smoke cleared up and we saw my father near the door.

He was dead, there was blood coming out of his head here.

We were screaming and crying.

We started to shake him, for him to wake up.

But he didn't want to wake up.

My brothers stayed with my father. I went out in the street to find help.

Suddenly I heard the sound of an explosion and I fell to the ground.

I tried standing up a few times but my leg kept bending.

When my brothers and sisters saw me they started screaming.

They went to get an ambulance, but they never came back.

I stayed beside my father trying to wake him up for about 15 minutes.

Then I lost hope and went back into the house.

I went to the balcony, it was broken glass all over the floor -

- because of the rockets.

I lost consiousness and woke up again many times.

Because I was bleeding. I could't resist fainting.

When I woke up the next morning, I was not aware of my leg injury.

First I saw that the balcony was full of blood.

Then I locked at my leg and saw that the tissue and the bone was exposed.

From here it looked like chopped liver.

I stood on my uninjured leg and I was able to drink water. But I threw it up.

Then the israelis fired another rocket at where I was.

They didn't hit me. I thing it was because I was still moving.

They also fired another rocket at my father, he was torn to pieces.

That was the last time I ever saw my father.

A plane was projecting its light on me for about two minutes or so.

I stopped moving and then I when into a coma.

I started having hallucinations that my father was telling me :

"Wait, I am coming for you !"

But when I woke up...

... I just kept on crying.

Whenever I wake up, I ask myself why I wake up ?

I remember my brothers.

They went to get an ambulance for me and my father.

The israelis saw them running and shot them down.

I wish...

... that I had gone with them.

If I study well I want to become a lawyer, to defend my home and -

Because they are killing children and they stole all our land.
