In 2013, 5-year-old Jocelyn Rojas was abducted from her front yard by a man in a car who lured her with ice cream.

Fortunately, 15-year-old Temar Boggs and his friend witnessed the incident and decided to take action. They quickly grabbed their bikes and chased after the car. For 15 minutes, the teenagers pursued the car until the kidnapper realized he had been noticed. He pushed the girl out of the car and fled the scene.

Thanks to the bravery of the two boys, the little girl was rescued. Without their intervention, her fate might have been very different.

Q: Why don't the Gazans/Palestinians use nonviolent resistance?

A: They do. 1000s of unarmed men, women & children demonstrated in Gaza weekly for ~1.5 years. Israeli snipers shot one after another of them... and the world ignored it.

This is just one of many examples. The multitude of other nonviolent Palestinian protests have been similarly met with Israeli state violence and near silence by U.S. and other western media.

* More information about the Great Return March: On March 30th, 2018, an estimated 30,000 Palestinian civilians organized along the Gazan border fence for a massive unarmed protest against the Israeli occupation and to call attention to their right to return to their land.

This continued every week until December 27, 2019.

Israel responded to the Great Return March by stationing over 100 snipers along the border with “shoot to kill” orders.

Politicians are employees of the people. They are not kings. They are not God. They are not owed endless loyalty. They are elected to do a job and to serve.

Most of our politicians have seemed to forgotten this.
