Gaza violence jeopardises truce

Quote:

Israeli soldiers have shot dead three Palestinian teenagers on the edge of a refugee camp in southern Gaza. Witnesses say they were killed trying to retrieve a football in a no-go area near the Egypt border; the Israeli army says it is investigating the report. It is the most serious such incident since Israeli and Palestinian leaders declared a ceasefire in February.

What would these soldiers think if in future their own children would be killed for playing football? You have to be quite a monster to shoot children to death, even if they go to get their football from "a forbidden area".
