Mohammed was one of more than 170 children killed in Israel's renewed bombardment of Gaza on Tuesday, which shattered the ceasefire deal in place for the past two months.

Alaa's wife lies in a body bag at his feet. She was just 20.

"We only got married two years ago," Alaa says. "She was seven months pregnant when she was killed."

The repercussions of this tragedy will live on for decades in the form of horrible acts against the west. I doubt this will go in silence. Just give it 20 years at most.
