12-year-old Palestinian beaten and imprisoned with adults, for what–for protesting the confiscatory separation wall… Muhammad Khawajah tells the great B'tselem:
Last Thursday [11 September], around 3:00 A.M., I woke up from my
mother’s shouts. She was shouting, “Get up! Get up! The army is here!”
My father wasn’t home that night. I got up and went out with her to the
inner courtyard of the house. There were about 12 soldiers there, and
their faces were painted black. One soldier wore a black hat that
covered his face. He sat on the stairs outside the house and didn’t
take part. I think he was a collaborator who led them to houses.
