if i can bring this boy and get him to stand beside my 18 year old brother, and try to compare these two.

My 18 year old brother would definitely be the CHILD.

He’s such a little man – which would be cute if it weren’t for the reasons why. I wish I could only say, “How precocious, this adorable child is just holding forth.” Sad how innocence is lost so early in such harsh living conditions.

I don’t usually leave comments, but I must say “Kabobfest” has done an excellent job during the war on Gaza. Special props to Mohammad.

What can I say? I am horrified by listening to those words come out of that child’s mouth but at the same time… proud.

A repeated occurance I’ve witnessed in those videos is 8 to 12 year olds referring to “children” as if they are a different generation.

In several of the videos interviewing 8-12yr olds in youtubes, the keep referring to children’s needs in third person. They say it in the sense that they are concrened for kids, self not included.

Police, teachers and school administrators always talk about kids in the inner city projects and how an 8 year old boy is like a grown man because stress, trauma, poverty, violence and hardships make you grow up quick.

Thats what I’m reminded of when i watch this, its sad. To live under such severe oppression at such a young age, by the time you’re 10 your soul is 50 and by the time this kid is 50 his soul will be dead and gone.
