This girl should have been supervised.<BR/><BR/>It happens often that Bedouins wander to these areas. It's a minefield! It's full of cluster bombs and the army fires there all the time.<BR/><BR/>I also know that Bedouins go there in order to steal ammunition and sell it to Palestinians. We found a Bedouin near our training base 3 years ago. He tried to steal a cluster bomb and when he touched it, it exploded and he had lost one or both of his legs. Poor guy.<BR/><BR/>Christopher, you're a journalist, and you know that when articles are not objective, they only cause more hatred and do no good to anyone. Israel has its good sides as well as its bad sides. The same goes for the Palestinians. We are all equal people.<BR/><BR/>We only see what our eyes want to see, a man should try to see what his eyes do NOT want to see, that's when he'll learn the truth.<BR/><BR/>I've learned many terrible things about my people and my country. I openly write about it in my blog and as much as I'm ashamed of these incidents, I know that it's not what my country is like. I looked at things I didn't want to see, but as painful as it was, it opened my eyes to the truth.<BR/><BR/>May we all speak of peace and give hope to each other.<BR/><BR/>Have a good weekend.IsraeliDiaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04581125301983209712noreply@blogger.com
