A 13-year-old girl was suspended from school last week after she expressed concern for Palestinian children in Gaza during a class discussion on Hamas’s October 7 massacre, according to Hebrew media reports.
According to Channel 12 News, when it was her turn to speak, the girl, a member of the Arab Bedouin community, mentioned that innocent children were killed in Gaza. “There are hungry children in Gaza, there are children without a home,” she reportedly said during the discussion.
Following a heated incident after the class in which dozens of other students cursed the girl and threw things at her, she was suspended for three days.
She also said that since October 7, students have repeatedly asked her if she supports the Hamas terror group because she wears a hijab headscarf.
“The students started telling me: ‘Our soldiers are not murderers,’ even though I didn’t say that… and others cursed me,” the girl told Haaretz. “They asked me if I supported Palestine, and I said no and that I only support the small children in Gaza returning to their homes.”

Ibn Bari charged that the school’s decision to suspend the girl was “extreme and even illegal,” adding that the other students had chanted, “May your village burn,” and accused her of disrespecting Israel Defense Force troops serving in Gaza after she expressed concern for Palestinian children.
So you’re choosing the Netanyahu fanzine to increase the chance that Zionists don’t dismiss the story out of hand?
Makes sense in general, but Zionists are not exactly known to be receptive to reason when it comes to the many atrocities of the fascist apartheid regime…
Yes. My powers are limited, so I do what little I can.
Fair. Keep on fighting the good fight ✊
