Reconciliation: The Palestinian Way
I don't think they grasp the concept...
On Friday afternoon, 28 March 2008, 3 Palestinians were killed and 10 others were wounded in Kufor Thuluth village, southeast of Qalilya, while a reconciliation meeting was being held.
Really? How did it work out? Everybody friends now?
They have a town called "Kufr Chthulu"? Why isn't it their capital?
According to investigations conducted by PCHR and a statement issued by the public relations department at the police of Qalqilya, at approximately 14:00 on Friday, a reconciliation meeting was held between the clans of Shawahna and Mara’ba at a secondary school in Kufor Thuluth village, to end a dispute between the two clans, which had taken the life of Eyad Qassem Mara’ba on 24 October 2008.
Eyad was probably...running with scissors? Fell in the shower maybe?
After meeting the demands of the Mara’ba’s clan, including receiving an amount of 40,000 JD (approximately US$ 60,000), and signing an agreement between the two clans, a member of the Shawahna clan was fired at, which led to an exchange of fire between the two clans.
Whaddya you lookin at! You wanna piece of me! OUCH OUCH OUCH OUCH...Rosebud!
As a result, 3 persons were killed:
Goddam it, Mahmoud! Now we owe the Mara'ba's another 120 grand!!
1. Kamal Qassem ‘Awadh Mara’ba, 45, hit by 6 gunshots to the chest, the back and the limbs;
2. Mohammed ‘Awadh Qassem Mara’ba, 22, hit by 4 gunshots to the chest, the side and the leg; and
3. Nour Sa’id ‘Ali Mara’ba, 13, hit by a gunshot to the head.
Well, Biff, looks like another decisive Shawahna victory...
Additionally, another 10 persons were wounded.
Probably all foot wounds, no doubt. They'll limp to the next reconciliation meeting.
Gosh. I hope they got their money back.
PCHR is gravely concerned over the continuation of the use of weapons in personal and clan disputes, which is further aggravating the state of security chaos in the Occupied Palestinian Territory. PCHR calls upon the Palestinian National Authority, represented by the Attorney-General, to investigate these crimes and bring the perpetrators to justice
Yep, we'll add it to the "to do" list.
