What happened at Qalandiya on Saturday I heard from a young man who saw the 14-year old girl, “a pretty girl” he said, who entered with a knife – a girl with a knife – the place that the army intends to contain only vehicles.

Everyone knows, all Palestinians know, that whoever moves there on foot – is risking his life. Quite a few have been murdered or wounded there, in that place that is saturated with Palestinian blood.

The 14-year old girl knew this too, she came because she knew, she held a knife because she knew.

The girl who failed at school wished to die.

Then something out of the ordinary happened. Different and exceptional in the conduct of this place.

“An Arab soldier”, according to the young man who told me this, yelled at the girl to sit down and at the armed soldiers – “she’s little, don’t shoot, take her”.

Everyone listened to him. The girl sat down, the armed soldiers didn’t shoot, and a policeman took her. Arrested, but alive.

I hope I’ll find out who was the man who prevented bloodshed. He is praiseworthy.
