And his father was begging for Israel to spare his child. And Muhammad was murdered in his lap.

And you know what happened this last round? His other kids were murdered. So Muhammad's brothers were murdered, and his father's been on the run. Every single person in Gaza has witnessed multiple wars, has witnessed the greatest suffocation of occupation, has even had their diets restricted, and has suffered under Israel's state policy, which is called mowing the lawn.

Gaza has been, unfortunately, the worst manifestation of anti-Palestinian bigotry. I mean, 60% of the population is a refugee population.
