Mahmoud Tamimi climbs the trunk of the dead olive tree in the yard of his house, and hoists the flag of Palestine. He’s a boy of 13 who last Friday lost his older brother, 17-year-old Mohammed, who was shot to death by Israel Defense Forces soldiers while he was on his way to fetch Mahmoud. Their younger brother, Mustafa, is named for another Mustafa Tamimi, their cousin, who was killed by soldiers in 2011.
Mohammed Munir Tamimi was the fifth person killed in recent years in the village of Nabi Saleh, not far from Ramallah in the West Bank, almost all of whose residents are from the Tamimi clan. The neighboring village, Deir Nidham, is also a virtually all-Tamimi locale, and it’s where the family of the latest fatality, Mohammed, lived until they too moved to Nabi Saleh three years ago.

He repeated this time after time, and observed that the sounds that preceded the food distribution began themselves to cause the dogs to salivate. That happened even when the bell he rang wasn’t followed by food.
