Now this one, the young man throwing stones, it’s Bara’s image. It’s the young man we saw at the cemetery, the one I told you was young. Bara’ Hamada. He was [martyred] after Moutaz. The army [came in]; it was about 7am. So the young men went to throw stones as usual. The attack against the army was aggravated. When they’re under pressure, they start to shoot. Look how it’s done. It’s [from] a photo of him, they took it and drew it. It’s really him in the picture. He was young, 16 years old. That’s his uncle’s photo who was martyred in 2002. He was martyred with Jihad, my cousin. Then one of the sayings Bara’ posted [online] a few days before he was martyred, and this is a very touching saying: ‘Crush my bones and make of them bread for the poor’. It's a saying of [author and PLO leader] Ghassan Kanafani’s. – Ahmed
