It doesn't matter, no presents for Palestinian kids anyway.

That is insane

In reality it is two times insane:
1- Dressing as Santa Claus to protest against Israel is not ordinary but effective (more than a news agency reported the fact)
2- Beating up protesters is completely insane but it is the ordinary procedure of the Israeli Army to keep them silent :(

Thanks Mr. 3awwad for your comment. However, I must point out that I did not translate anything in this post, I just copied the news story and the picture as they were first reported by Agencie France Press.
I invite you to check the link.
