Op youtube is er een filmpje opgedoken van een Palestijsne boer die gefilmd werd tijdens een arrestatie van het IDF bij het "stelen van water" aan een watedrbron die afgenomen werd door Israel.
Het is heel interessant het verhaal achter dit filmpje te lezen, en hoe Israel te werk gaat bij het stelen van basisvoorzieningen als water.
The video shows Fadil al-Jabari’s four-year old son tugging on his father’s shirt and begging the soldiers not to take his daddy away. The footage is emotional and difficult to watch, as the child cries and repeatedly calls to his ‘papa’. The soldiers push the boy away and leave him on the side of the road alone as they take his father away in a military jeep.
Al-Jabari was charged with resisting arrest and striking an officer. Both of these charges are easily disproven by the video of the incident, but the video evidence was not allowed to be shown in court.
Apparently, the man was in a ‘restricted area’, trying to get clean water from a well that used to be Palestinian, but was seized by the Israeli military. Israeli authorities severely restrict access to water for the Palestinian population in the West Bank, cutting off water completely for 15 – 20 days at a time, even while Israeli settlements are able to water their lawns and swim in swimming pools.
According to local news agency Ma’an News, which interviewed Fadil al-Jabari’s mother, her 4-year old grandson has been severely traumatized by the incident, and repeatedly calls for his father.
Palestinians say such abductions by Israeli troops are common, even leaving small children on the road without an adult, as the Israeli soldiers assume that some Palestinian will come along and help the child after the soldiers take their parent away. Israeli troops make no provisions whatsoever for the children of those whom they abduct..
De video kan hier bekeken worden:

De man kreeg een boete en 3 maand cel ...... omdat hij water voor zijn familie wou halen op de warmste dag van het jaar.

Goed bezig, Israel.
