Palestinian stone throwing has killed Israelis: that’s why its outlawed
At least 14 Israelis have been killed by Palestinian stone throwing, including three Arabs mistaken for Jews.
Adele Biton, a 4-year-old Israeli girl, died from injuries caused by Arab rock-throwers who caused the car she was traveling in to crash.
There are a number of ways that a rock can prove lethal. It can strike a passenger directly in the head, as happened, for example, to Esther Ohana, as she was delivering invitations to her wedding in 1983; and to 5-month-old Yehuda Shoham, as he was strapped in his infant car seat in 2001. Or it can strike the driver, causing a fatal crash, as happened to the driver of the car in which 11-year-old Chava Wechsberg was a passenger, in 1993; and to Asher Palmer in 2011, killing him and his 1-year-old son.

Palestinian children routinely participate in incidents of stone throwing. Annually, Israeli military courts sentence approximately 700 Palestinian children, predominantly on charges of throwing stones. Under Israeli law children under 12 may neither be arrested nor detained.
