THE KILLING OF RAKIA ABU EID BY ILLEGAL ISRAELI SETTLER [FACEBOOK REMOVED OUR FIRST POST ABOUT HER FATE]

Our Saturday's post of the killing of Ruqayya Eid Abu Eid al-Yattawi (whose name has been also written as Rakia Abu Eid) has been removed by Facebook in an apparent act of censorship.

Censorship and intimidation doesn't hold us back. Although there were no backups for the now removed post, we offer you are a totally rewritten one:

THE EVENTS

On the morning of Saturday January 23rd Rakia, aged 13 or 14, had left her home in Anata village north-east of occupied East Jerusalem after an argument with her family.

By the time her father, who had left searching for her, found her outside Israel's illegal Anatot colony, she was laying on the ground bleeding, shot several times by an illegal Israeli settler acting as a "security guard" for the illegal colony.

Her father was not allowed to reach her dying daughter, who seems to have been left without medical aid, and was instead arrested by the Israeli occupation.

Rakia's killer claimed that she had tried to stab him. He was not injured.

There is a blurry image taken from a video feed claimed to be from the site that shows a person in female clothes' with what appears to be a knife-like object in hand.

We assume that the person in question is Rakia. The fact that there was a "stabbing attempt" by her seems very likely, but all things from the site don't add up.

OPEN QUESTIONS

Behind the person is a gate which we see also in the photographs from the site where Rakia was killed. In the image the person is very close to the gate, running beside it. Rakia's body ended up well away from the gate, her feet pointing towards the gate and the claimed knife several meters from her.

Clearly something what is missing from her killer's version of events happened between the moment of which we have the blurry image of Rakia running and then her collapsing to the ground.

There could not have been a simple chronology of events where she would have attacked the illegal Israeli settler and the adult male shooting her immediately several times in "self-defense".

The position of the knife and her body might even indicate that she had dropped the knife and was backing away when she was shot. There is no blood that can be on the ground that would indicate that she somehow made it wounded to the point where she fell to the ground.

Rakia's body was handed over later on Saturday by Israeli occupation and she was buried on Sunday. Hundreds of people escorted her in her last voyage, even when the weather was bad and it snowed.
