Dying for Palestine

The British activist murdered by Israeli troops

Dying for Palestine Tom Hurndall was shot through the head by the Israeli army. We follow his grieving family who came to Gaza to see what their son was doing.
Five-year-old Salamah was one of three children Tom was attempting to rescue when he was shot. He had frozen in fear when soldiers began firing at him. Another young peace campaigner, Brian Avery, is lucky to be alive after a burst of machine gun fire ripped off half his face. He now lies in hospital with horrific scars barely able to talk. The Israelis are cracking down on foreigners entering the Gaza Strip. Only those willing to sign an indemnity form are now granted access. Aid workers regard this indemnity as a 'licence to kill'. Charlotte Carson has been working for the International Solidarity Movement in the West Bank. At the request of one Palestinian mother she agrees to act as a human shield to collect her little boy who has been throwing stones at an Israeli tank. The tank replies with machine gun fire and shouts: "We shoot little children." Despite the danger, the ISM and aid workers remain determined to defend the Palestinian children.
