UN experts should stop holding Israel responsible for the war and instead concentrate on the pain Israeli youngsters are suffering, said October 7 survivor Sabine Taasa, who lost her husband and her 17-year-old son during the Hamas attack.
“Please quit pointing the finger at us,” Taasa, 48, whose son’s murder was captured on camera, pleaded.
Or Taasa’s oldest son, who was heading to the beach, called her before Hamas gunmen stormed into her house in the southern Israeli community of Netiv Haasara.
He sounded scared, but the mother of four said he assured her not to worry, saying, “Mom, I promise everything will be ok.”
In a matter of seconds, he was dead. She would also eventually view the video that the militants who shot him had recorded.
“Is that typical? Six bullets to the head of a seventeen-year-old child?” As Taasa narrated the atrocities of October 7, she posed a question to the United Nations Committee on the Rights of the Child in Geneva.
