Just look at the settler’s attacks here in Silwan, or in Ras el Amood. You realize that they send them to attack us, and then we get arrested. How many times was I arrested and released and arrested and released? About eighteen times, and I am only fifteen years old. I have been hit and injured countless times. If you look at me, you can read my life, but no one can feel what I went through … I know well they are after my father, because he was a political prisoner, and after my mother, who is working hard as a teacher to raise us, and they are after my dreams; they know how good I am in school, but they want to destroy me. They turned my home into my prison [he is under house arrest] and made my parents my jailers. They made us all fight each other all the time. We all want freedom, and we can’t have it even inside the walls of our own homes.
