Palestinian people are under Israeli occupation since more then 50 years.
78% of the historical Palestine lands have been occupied by Jews in 1948 and
they established their state Israel on it.
The other parts which are West Bank including East Jerusalem and Gaza Strip
were occupied by Israel in a war they
started in 1967.
From 1948 and until 1988 Palestinian tried the military straggle in order to free Palestine
from the Israeli occupation.
In 1988 they adopted the peace strategy, which recognize Israel right of existent against
the end of occupation on the lands occupied in 1967.
Since our nation is not armed, the Palestinian what to show there anger by any mean, and
they found that throwing rocks and stones is causing some hearts to the occupation soldiers.
This method was first used in the first Intifada in 1987, which continued for more then 7 years and led to
peace talks. Intifada includes other ways for protesting like demonstrations and strikes.
The Palestinian are protesting the continues Israel occupation by going in to marches and demonstrations
and clashing with the Israeli army soldiers
(note that Israel ARMY is involved not the POLICE or the RIOTS POLICE)
by throwing stones and burning the Israel flag. In return Israeli army replay with LIVE bullets,
Rubber coated STEEL bullets, teargas and the international BAND dom-dom bullets,
which explode inside the human body and cause heavy injuries.
