On this day, the 15th of October, 59 years ago, the massacre of "Qibya" led by Ariel Sharon, and the Israeli Occupation forces took place, killing 69 Palestinians, 2/3 being women and children. Forty-five houses, a school, and a mosque were destroyed in one night. This, of course, is just one of many massacres that have been perpetrated against the indigenous people of Palestine since 1948.
<span>When Sharon and his unit returned to Ben Gurion after<span> having learned the extent of the killing, the Prime Minister stood up and said "Boys, I want to welcome you on on your actions. Unfortunately I can not do so in public"</span></span>
