The IDF has also accused Jad of throwing a rock, which, under their rules of engagement, can permit soldiers to use lethal force.
But the footage of the incident shows an IDF soldier dropping an object next to Jad after he was shot, then taking a photograph of it – an action Jad's family and a leading human rights group say appears to be an attempt to frame him.
This is insane. Why are they bothering to bring in the death penalty when they already have it? You are allowed to kill a kid if you say that they threw a rock.
Imagine just standing there watching a kid bleeding out, actively denying him life saving care. You can't say that you are doing that out of self defence. You don't need to defend yourself against a kid who is bleeding out. That is done out of hatred. Nothing more and nothing less.
