As a parent, I can't even begin to imagine the pain this grieving father and the boy's mother must be feeling. It would break me completely. I think I would literally lose my mind.
Do not get used to Palestinian children being killed.
There is nothing normal about a child being murdered.
The repetition of the crime does not make it ordinary. It makes it a greater tragedy.
Stay outraged.
The boy is gone, gone. A father breaks down in grief over his eight-year-old son, Jad Suleiman, killed while walking home from school in Jabalia refugee camp in northern Gaza, his small backpack still on his shoulders. Between his tears the father keeps repeating his name, remembering the smallest things about him, how the boy always wanted a piece of namoura, the red sweet, from his uncle. A child who set out for school and never made it home, one more name added to the thousands of children killed in Gaza under Israel's ongoing assault and genocide.
