Sounds pretty harmless. Are they mad at the accuracy or the existence of a living Palestinian child?

    He doesn’t spell out his issue with it this is the closest he comes to explaining why he’s mad

    Under my watch, Israeli citizens will not pay from their pockets for a ceremony that spits in the faces of our heroic soldiers.

    The main character is played by a 13 yearold Palestinian kid so you’re probably spot on that his continued existence is the insult
