Friends of 11-Year-Old Israeli Firebomb Victim to UN: Condemn Burners of Children
(Ynet News) Yitzhak Benhorin - Hundreds of friends of Ayala Shapira, the 11-year-old girl who was seriously wounded after a firebomb was hurled at her car in the West Bank on Dec. 25, urged UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon in a letter to issue a harsh "condemnation against burners of children." Shapira, who sustained third degree burns in the attack, remains sedated and on a respirator. Israel's Ambassador to the UN, Ron Prosor, said Shapira "is, as we speak, fighting for her life in hospital. Does this disgusting attack on a child merit condemnation? Because I haven't heard one - not from the Palestinian leadership and not from this [Security] Council."
