Israeli New Technology against Civilians in Beit Sahour

The Israeli occupation forces succeeded to completely burn a very nice house in the east of Beit Sahour last night.  The house belongs to Nasri Jarayseh (about 75 years old).  An old man who worked most of his life to build his house.  The Israeli soldiers did not give him a long time to enjoy living in the house.  The new technology they are using, is really amazing.  It bombs and destroys houses, but you cannot find fragments of the missile or the bomb.  But you find the house totally burnt especially that the fire fighters could not reach the burnt house to stop the fire because the soldiers were shooting at them injuring one of them who was in the Ambulance.

Eye witnesses say that they tried to reach the house to put the fire off, but they could not even reach close to the house because of the Israeli intensive shooting at the house after bombing it.  The fire was still on until noon time of the next day.  I could feel the heat of the walls and the smell the smoke of the burned furniture and glass at the time I took the pictures of the house on Monday at 3:30 p.m., knowing that the house was burnt on Sunday November 12 at around 6:00 p.m.

Nothing was left from the house.  all the kitchen the bedrooms, the children's room, and the toilets were burnt.  One of the rooms has a big hole from the side of the Israeli Military camp, where the bomb came through.
