The video shows an Israeli soldier aiming a .22 sniper rifle at a Palestinian after the youth has thrown two stones. The moment the shot is fired, the Palestinian is standing still, leaning against a wall and clearly no conceivable threat to anyone. He is hit by the snipers round and falls to the ground.

The post has been shared more than 3,000 times on israeli media and hundreds of comments express sadistic joy at the sight of soldiers shooting a Palestinian who has no rights because he lives under military rule. A common complaint expressed by Israeli commenters is that the youth was not shot in the head or heart and killed outright.
