An Israeli Border Police officer has been caught on video kicking a Palestinian child in the southern West Bank. The police have launched a probe into the incident, documented by an Israeli human rights organization. The footage shows a 9-year-old boy walking down the road when a uniformed police officer runs up to him and grabs him by the arm, causing the boy to fall on the ground. Another policeman then walks up to them and kicks the screaming child. After that, the soldiers let the child run away, and leave the site. In response to the incident, the Israeli Border Police issued a statement denouncing the policemen's behavior, which it claims “contrasts the values of the force.” “The Border Police commander instructed on setting up a team to investigate the incident immediately and its conclusions are due in the coming days," the statement said. The boy, Abdul-Rahman Burqan, testified to the Israeli police that the soldiers chased him after he swore at one of the officers. He also claimed an Israeli soldier had stomped on his hand after he and his friend were stopped at a checkpoint in a separate incident a month ago. The video was recorded by a volunteer of the Israeli Information Center for Human Rights in the Occupied Territories (B'Tselem) on June 29 in Hebron, in the southern part of the West Bank. The organization distributes cameras to Palestinians so that they can film possible instances of abuse carried out by Israeli security forces and settlers. http://www.rt.com/news/israel-police-officer-kicks-palestinian-child-437/ watch it. http://www.rt.com/news/israel-police-officer-kicks-palestinian-child-437/

And your point is? http://youtu.be/eIesXORjBps Excerpt: ...Compared to the number of Muslims and Christians on this planet, not to mention Hindus and Buddhists, Jews are a handful of people. They're a tiny percentage of the population. Nearly half of them live in Israel, a country the size of a county, and more are being driven there every day, especially from Europe, where it has become fashionable to use the Israeli government's behaviour as an excuse for the kind of open anti-Semitism we've become used to hearing from Muslims. At anti-Israel demonstrations in Europe you're likely to hear calls for Jews to be gassed. We've even had the spectacle of a Dutch member of parliament in the front line of such an event. In Sweden, Israeli athletes can no longer even compete without being attacked by violent mobs because the police can't, or won't, protect them. Hate crimes against Jews outnumber those against Muslims, and many of them are carried out by Muslims for no other reason than they've been taught from childhood to hate Jews. Meanwhile, day in and day out, we have to listen to their endless hypocritical horseshiit about Islamophobia. It's enough to make you want to throw up. The fact that a Jewish state needs to exist at all - and it does need to exist - is an indictment of all humanity

One out-of-hand Jackass kicking a kid don't spoil the whole bunch. The kid will eventually grow up to try and kill as many Jews as he can. Hatfields and McCoys. Only difference instead of hats they got towels, smell funny and are really fond of goats.

There is a good chance that the kid was sent intentionally to insult soldiers repeatedly in order to try to provoke one out of hundreds who is having a bad day to react so they can film it. It is the Pallywood version of "cyberbaiting". "One of the new ways that students are harassing teachers has become known as "cyberbaiting." Students irritate a teacher to the point that the teacher breaks down; that reaction then is captured in photos or video to post online. A Norton Online Family Report published last year found that 21 percent of teachers had experienced or knew another teacher who had experienced "cyberbaiting." http://hosted2.ap.org/CAANR/APUSnews/Article_2012-06-23-Bus%20Monitor%20Bullying/id-9f9ab1d1829342419583f2202f8be294 Clearly there was inciting behavior on the part of the kid who taunted the Israelis.

Possibly, but without proof of that it is only an assumption.

No name no source no nothing just propaganda spin and that is very typical of the information one gets from our corrupt and rotten media. How could any honest editor leave that in a story?
