Why do youngsters get involved in political violence?
In the Middle East, Palestinians as young as fourteen have attempted to attack and bomb Israelis. Three schoolboys armed with an axe and explosives were shot dead by Israeli troops as they tried to break into a Jewish settlement. These children left notes for their parents saying that they were willing to die for the cause of their homeland.
