Hadil Ghaben, 7, was killed in her house in Beit Lahia, the Gaza Strip, on 10 April 2006, from a
mortar shell fired by the Israeli military. The incident was never investigated. Her parents,
Muhammad and Safiyeh Ghaben, talk about the incident 13 years later.
Just the tip of the iceberg is about the past, but ahead of us all lies a future that must bring a
different reality, one in which all of us – all 14 million people living on the bit of land between
the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea – live in equality, enjoy the full benefit of human
rights, and take part in determining our future. A reality in which the law will no longer be used
for the advantage of the rulers to undermine subjects, but genuinely serves to safeguard
human rights, everyone’s human rights.
