More from CNS:
An Israeli Defense Forces spokesman’s office official posted the clip on Twitter. “[F]ather of the year stages his toddler son,” tweeted Lt. Col. Peter Lerner, “tries to get him to throw stones calls border police to shoot.”Attempts to establish from the IDF where and when the incident occurred were unsuccessful.
Leibel A. Mangel, an IDF combat veteran who also posted the clip on social media, said the child had been identified as Muhammad Suroor, age three.
Mangel paraphrased a quote attributed to the late Israeli Prime Minister Golda Meir: “There will be peace when they love their children more than they hate ours.”
