Ahmad Dawabsheh Lost Both Parents and Baby Brother in Petrol Bomb Attack
On July 2015, Jewish settlers threw petrol bombs into the house of the Dawabsheh family burning alive 18 month Ali Dawabsheh and killing both parents. There was just one survivor, 4 year old Ahmed Dawabshe, who had 60% burns over his body.
Nearly two years later Israel’s notoriously racist Defence Minister, Avigdor Lieberman, a man who has been convicted of assault on the child of a fellow settler, [Avigdor Lieberman, Convicted Child Beater is Israel's Foreign Minister] announced to fellow racists in the Knesset that not being Jewish, Ahmad would not receive anti-terror compensation. If members of the settlement outpost, Yishuv HaDaat, had been the victims of a Palestinian terror attack they would automatically have been entitled to compensation.
Liebermann has form when it comes to extreme racism. He has previously said that he would love nothing more than to drown thousands of Palestinian prisoners in the Dead Sea. Lieberman Blasted for Suggesting Drowning Palestinian Prisoners
The official reason given was that Ahmad was not an Israeli citizen. All Palestinians living under the occupation and at the mercy of the Jewish settlers cannot be Israeli citizens because they possess no civil or political rights at all. A different set of laws apply to non-Jews in the Occupied Territories than to Jews.

It is noticeable that there have been no protests from other parties, including the Israeli Labour Party to which the Jewish Labour Movement, an affiliate of the British Labour Party, is the overseas wing, because discrimination such as this is accepted as the norm for a Jewish state.
Zionists in this country talk a lot about non-existent anti-Semitism but when it comes to the murder of a child’s family and his own near death, they remain silent. Anti-Palestinian discrimination does not merit a statement of concern from any British political leader, be it Theresa May who is much exercised about ‘anti-Semitism’ or Jeremy Corbyn, who on Palestine is Theresa May’s lapdog.
Meanwhile the treatment of little Ahmed Dawabsheh shows, in a microcosm why the Zionist movement and the State of Israel that it created are racist to the core.

Yesterday brought not one outrage du jour, but two from Israel. Defense minister Avigdor Lieberman denied 8 year-old Ahmed Dawabshe’s application for the official compensation offered all Israeli Jewish terror victims. The little boy’s father, mother and baby brother were all burned to death by Jewish settler terrorists. The attackers haven’t even been tried yet for their crimes though it is nearly two years since the crime.
Lieberman claimed Israel could not recognize Dawabsheh as a terror victim because he’s not an Israeli citizen. Note, that the Jewish settlers who incinerated both his parents and baby brother live right next door to him in the occupied West Bank and are Israeli citizens. Yet he is not and so is denied.

Israel further insulted the victim by presenting the PA with a $250,000 medical bill for Ahmed’s care. Palestinians were outraged at this effrontery, claiming Israel was charging Ahmed for his own care. Israeli authorities then tried sophistry. They hadn’t presented any bill to Ahmed. The world was supposed to interpret that as Israel presented no bill to anyone, which was a lie.
Further, those settlers did not have their homes demolished for their terror attack as any Palestinian attacker would. And because one of the group of attackers was a Shabak stoolie, this individual hasn’t even been named, charged or prosecuted in Israel (but he was outed here).
How the Hell does Israel have the chutzpah to shrey about a UN report documenting it is an apartheid state, when decisions like this confirm it a hundred-fold??
