Killed in Cradle



The mother put him kindly in his cradle. The father bent over to kiss the chubby cheek of the five-month toddler.


"Come on! Grow up sweat heart," whispered the father Naser tenderly in the ears of Mohammad. "Our baby will grow up, play hide and seek and marry the prettiest of the girls."



"We will always love you and get you he best of clothes and toys," added his wife Eman as they kept looking at the sleeping angel.


With his innocent look and broad smile, Mohammad came to this life after five long years of patience and impotency endured by his parents.



They wanted nothing but a baby who brings joy to a life growing mundane and gives purpose to it under a paralyzing Israeli punishment and a crippling blockade.



Mohammad will not grow up; he will not smile any longer neither will he play hide and seek.




Mohamed was killed in an Israeli raid in Gaza
