In a unique case that highlights the sense of shock and the strain the occupation brings to bear on ordinary people, psychological trauma has been blamed for a Palestinian girl’slife-threatening coma after she was prevented by Israeli authorities from hugging her father when she went to visit him in prison where he is serving a life term. Israeli police officers in charge of the prison where Abeer Eskafi’s father, Yousuf, is serving his sentence, allegedly did not allow the 10-year-old to go over to the prisoners’ side of a meeting room where visitors can meet inmates when she expressed a wish to hug her father. The little girl was so hurt by the episode that soon after returning home, she refused to eat and retreated into a shell of silence. Later she became paralysed and subsequently slipped into a deep coma that even affected her respiratory functions. She is now on life-support at a hospital in Hebron.
Doctors at Hebron’s Princess Alia Hospital say Abeer’s condition is deteriorating steadily, which is preventing her from being transferred abroad for advanced treatment which the Palestinian health service is not in a situation to provide.Physicians treating Abeer have warned that there’s a big risk to her life if she is moved from her bed or if the connection to the artificial breathing apparatus is disturbed. Abeer’s father has been sentenced by an Israeli court to four life terms with no chance of parole.
Abeer is the eldest of his three daughters, the others being Falastine and Tahreer. Abdul Rahim Abdul Mohsin Eskafi, Abeer’s grandfather, told Gulf News that her health started to decline following her visit to her father in prison. Eskafi said Abeer used to be allowed to the other side to hug her father and spend a couple of minutes with him on earlier visits but was refused such permission on her latest visit ostensibly because she had passed an age limit a few days ago that made her ineligible for such consideration.
Eskafi, who also heads the Prisoners’ Families Committee at the Palestinian Prisoners Club, said Abeer collapsed after the Israeli officer prevented her from getting close to her father, but kept knocking on the glass barrier and Yousuf responded by knocking on it from the other side but even this distressing sight did not evoke any pity in the officer. After Abeer got back home to Hebron, she started knocking hysterically on pieces of furniture in the house all the time until her right hand became weak. She refused to eat and kept calling for her father, he added.
All specialist doctors who saw Abeer diagnosed her condition as psychological, and the girl’s health deteriorated till she became totally paralysed and had to be hospitalised when she lapsed into a coma.
Meanwhile, Yousuf, Abeer’s father had to undergo emergency surgery after suffering a heart attack on hearing about his daughter. Abeer’s elder brother, Ahmad, was shot dead by the Israelis in 2007 when he was just 15.

(Martyrs) of Occupation 2011
Please share in their honor so their sacrifices won’t be forgotten. Nor the memories, their deaths, the crimes that killed them. Do not forget them and the mourning families in your prayers… The list does not display, the numerous victims of the zionist occupation which are undocumented by media. Nor does it displays the victims of the “silent onslaught” due to restrictions of movement, ability to go to hospitals for treatment or life saving surgery, due to lack of medication because of the blockades and so on. For example: The Slow Motion Genocide by the Siege on Gaza only, killed 600 patients since Gaza got under Israeli Siege. How many more dead corpses of Palestinians does the international community need to see in order to act? How many more cruelties and violations of Human Rights, Regulations and International Law will be needed to intervene so this ongoing warcrime is being stopped once and for all. |

ReplyDeleteyou claim to oppose Islamic terrorism, and yet you post a list of Shahids on this side? Shahids are "martyrs" as identified and prescribed by the radical elements within Islam. This is a dangerous, and disgusting "philosophy", and is completely contrary to any civilized value system in this world.
For all your rantings against 'Zionists' and 'usury' nonsense, you sure do create a murky grey area around the causes you claim NOT to support.
But this is to be expected from paranoid conspiracy theory fools like yourself. and of course Lesley Crook, and the worst of all. Patrick.
What a shameful bunch of twats.
Easy putting derogatory comments.
ReplyDeleteAnd too much fanaticism isn't helpful either.
Rather just this one very simple question:
How can Israel even start to justify all this?
Derogatory whatever.
ReplyDeleteRather just ask this one simple question:
How can all you conspiracy theory idiots actually bear to look yourselves in the mirror every day? How can you look at yourself knowing the lies and puerile shit you spout every day. Every single thing gets twisted around to point at the Jews, WHATEVER it is.
Good for Israel - defend your citizens, and keep up the good fight against these pigs. They wish you dead, but your people will always outlive and outsmart the anti-Semite. (Ooops sorry, you call yourselves anti-Zionists) ya right whatever.
Pigs.
May her memory be eternal
ReplyDeleteOur friend with 'Pigs' on her tongue is not derogatory. It appears she is a paranoid Zionist, which would make her a crazy racist.
ReplyDeleteYes yes yes, Israel is "defending" itself.
ReplyDeleteNever mind more innocents die in the "defense" than ever could have been killed by the "attackers".

ReplyDeleteIt's just unfair :'( , all what she wanted is to hug her father, she only wanted one single hug and she was gonna go back home without her dad !
But they prevented her from seeing him, touching him and smilling him, it's just sooo unfair, all the children of t...he world open their eyes in the morning to see their fathers smiling , except the Palestinian children, they have to die . . only to get a hug from their fathers !! :'(
First of all fuck the mossad, fuck Zionism, and fuck the occupation... to hell where it came and to hell they shall go. The first step in making change, is to realize that it is actually possible. Send your positive prayers and thoughts to her and her family, the power of positive thought through prayer is so helpful, more than one can comprehend. Words and actions are like bombs, they have a huge impact which ripple outward. People must continue to seek deep within... strive, strive, strive, and recognize that the power is in our hands, and when you change your thinking, your inner being... it changes the world. All we need to do is wield it.
ReplyDeleteIsrael is doing a great job exposing itself as well... the 'chosen one' mentality is too blinded and arrogant to recognize they've long past shot themselves in the foot and are in free-fall. Is there any wonder why they are the most hated nation on earth? I suspect that this Egyptian revolution will be a game changer for Gaza as well. We must remain as peaceful as possible... channel that negative energy into something constructive... visualize Israel's power evaporating into nothingness... if you imagine it to be so, so it will be...and in time, as Israel crumbles, these freedom fighters will eventually be released back to their families.
The Israeli's have fallen victim to their own victim hood, brainwashing, via their Rothschild masters. They believe their own lies. They are living in a dream world... like the matrix. They think they are Gods Chosen... but God's got a few surprises coming down the pike for them... and for those who support them. The last thing we want is to be like them... be thankful you are not, and pity their blinded and arrogant souls... they've got a lot of very, very nasty karma in the dam and its about to burst.
Really, they are just as human as you and I... they bleed, die, love, cry... but they are both willing and unwitting victims of their own making. Be thankful you were not a born and raised Israeli... insulated and brainwashed from birth. They are the most blinded and dehumanized of all... and above that, these banking families and Monarchs are no different. Just look how these spoiled rotten are raised... they are trapped in their own delusions of grandeur... it will be their downfall, mark my words.
Israel is a self insulated child murdering slaughter house, a den of lies, fear, self hate, and blinded egotism. When you have that many "CHOSEN ONES" all gathered in to one place in fear and contempt of everything around them, thats what you get. That was the plan from the beginning... keep everyone divided and in conflict with each other, because there is no compound interest to be made from peace. War is the greatest debt generator, and that is what this is all about. Enriching the few at the expense the many, at the expense of humanities true potential... all for the sheer selfish back stabbing joy of it. The further they insulate themselves, the deeper into hell of their own making will be.
Helo to Mr.Ravenise & every one, & i will request you to chek out & not to remove this liitle information based on some bitter facts.
