My son the suicide bomber

Yousef Jaara is a broken man. His son, Ali, a Palestinian policemen from the Aida refugee camp in Bethlehem, became a suicide bomber, killing 10 people on a Jerusalem bus on the 29 January.

Yousef says that if he had known of his son's intentions he would have stopped him. "Suicide bombs against civilians or soldiers are wrong - killing on either side is not good."

"This is a policy that cannot solve the conflict - we need to go back to the negotiating table".

"I began my life in tents and now I've returned to living in tents - I hope for an independent Palestinian state but we can't solve this problem with bombs. We need to talk."

1. I just read that. That's so sad.

It's depressing reading about injustice, and collective punishment.
