the "r" word i want good digestive health... ... but i don't want to think about the word regularity. benefiber helps support good digestive health... and maintain... the "r" word. you know what it tastes like in water? water! except this water makes you feel great. benefiber. now in stick packs. hello and welcome to our viewers in the united states and around the world. i'm natalie allen. coming up this hour, officials in new york and new jersey defend their ebola policies after a nurse returning from west africa lashes out at a mandatory quarantine. >> i feel like my basic human rights have been violated. >> also ahead here, breal's rousseff wins re-election in a tight run-off. also british forces and the us
12:01 am
marines end formal combat in afghanistan. we'll see what they've left behind. and the secret that's taken the web by storm with the help of this tiny elephant. we begin with the u.s. epidemic. the u.s. imposing their own mandatory quarantines from west africa and the white house opposes that. a nurse who has come under new jersey's mandatory quarantine, calling the policy a knee-jerk reaction by politicians. >> i am completely healthy and with no symptoms. >> nurse kaci hickox said the mandatory quarantine imposed on her is inhumane. sunday she criticized chris consisty's statement that she was obviously ill. >> i don't think he's a doctor,
12:02 am
and secondly, he's never laid eyes on me. and thirdly, i have been asymptomatic since i've been here. >> reporter: she says her ebola tests have am can back negative twice. >> it was my conclusion we needed to do this to protect the public health of the people of new jersey. >> the state's mandatory quarantines have been questioned. >> people who are not ill, who don't have symptoms, with whom you don't come into contact with bodily fluids, they are not a threat. they are not going to spread it. >> he says quarantines could cause american health care workers to rethink trips to west africa. >> we want them to go, because they are helping us to protect america by being over there. >> darrell issa blames the federal government for the state's reactions. >> governors of both parties are reacting to an absence of leadership, an absence of belief that the federal government really knows what they're doing. >> meanwhile, hickox said she wants to go home to her partner. >> i feel like my basic human
12:03 am
rights have been violated. >> and the nurse kaci hickox is challenging the policy in court. her attorney says the quarantine is based on fear, not science. >> she very simply wants to be released. we will advocate for the state of new jersey and the governor to release her as soon as possible. we believe that medically speaking, there's no reason for the state of new jersey to keep her quarantined. we will, in the days to come, put together legal papers and go to the federal court in new jersey, asking them to release her. we will also challenge the mandatory quarantine policy. >> so that's what's going on in new jersey. as far as new york, the mayor
12:04 am
there says what happened to hickox was inappropriate. >> we are in a crisis, where we all have to hang together. and we have to first respect our first responders. i do not see people disrespecting soldiers in war time, or police or fire in the middle of a crisis that they respond to. i will not accept anyone disrespecting our nurses or other medical personnel. and new york's governor back pedalled on his state's policy, saying health workers could be quarantined at home in certain cases. >> we're staying one step ahead. we're doing everything possible. some people will say we're being too cautious. i'll take that criticism, because that's better than the alternative. >> a doctor, who served in liberia, and survived ebola, says he thinks the quarantines will reduce the number of people willing to volunteer in west africa. dr. rick sacra also says he's afraid returning health workers
12:05 am
could skirt the system and end up not being monitored at all. he spoke with cnn's anderson cooper. >> there's been talk among politicians and media about a travel ban, about stopping flights. do you think that's something that would hugely hinder the fight against ebola in west africa? >> you have to look at these ripple effects, right? it's not just the ebola crisis. it's the economic effects and all those things. if you totally isolate a country from travel, what's it going to do to the economy? it's going to hurt these people's ability to even survive. >> also groups, sim, doctors without borders, are moving a lot of personnel back and forth, and equipment. chartered flights alone are prohibitive. >> i'm sure you'd end up with some kind of u.n. flight system coming in to replace that for humanitarian workers, you'd have to. but obviously it's much easier if we just have routine commercial travel that we can take.
12:06 am
and people will travel anyway. you know, people will get to a different country and come here through a different route. >> while the u.s. figures out its policy, the cases grow in africa. the world health organization counting now more than 10,000 confirmed or suspected cases in west africa. more than 4,900 cases of ebola have been fatal. it's feared the real numbers could be even higher, much higher. the vast majority of those cases and deaths are in sierra leone, liberia, and guinea. now the death of a 2-year-old girl from mali. the outbreaks in senegal and nigeria are officially over. aide groups on the ground in west africa are badly underfunded even those countries are piping in tens of millions of dollars to fight ebola. if you would like to help, our
12:07 am
colleagues at cnn.com have put together a list of groups working to contain the disease. find it at cnn.com/impact. now to other news, a neck and neck presidential race in bre brazil is over. and the incumbent is the winner in a very close run-off. she wins more than 51% of the vote, defeating her challenger. the election was one of the tightest in brazil in decades. here's cnn's shasta darlington. >> reporter: after a heated, often unpredictable, and sometimes down right ugly campaign, brazil has picked its next president. dilma rousseff of the leftist workers party won re-election. rousseff got 52% of the vote, really just a few million votes separating the two candidates. now dilma rousseff gave her victory speech in brazilia,
12:08 am
striking a relative conciliatory tone, she called for unity, dialogue, and said that she would be a better president in the second term. now the main topic of this election was definitely the economy. it really divide the country into two camps. >> translator: i'm thinking about the social programs that started with the lula government and continued, and in some cases were expanded. >> on the one hand we had dilma rousseff focusing on the social programs and subsidies implemented over the last 12 years that the workers party has been in office, lifting millions out of poverty and into the working class. and on the other hand, we heard from nee efes, talking about the macro economy and how he'd get the economy growing again, after a recession in the first half of the year and a spike in inflation. nieves also benefitted from a last-minute investigation into a bribery scandal at the state oil company, allegedly involving
12:09 am
members of rousseff's workers' party. >> all i think about is corruption. it's gotten terrible. >> reporter: now comes the hard work for dilma rousseff. she'll have to focus on building the economy back up, reigning in inflation. also build up investor confidence without letting go of the social programs that are widely expected of her. all of this will have to be done in a brazil left divided by attack ads, allegations of corruption, and the tightest election in decades. shasta darlington, cnn, sao paulo. >> well, voters in ukraine also went to the polls sunday for parliamentary elections. they're still counting votes there, but president poroshenko says he believes most voters support what he calls ukraine's path to europe. he expressed his gratitude after he said early poll result favored his peace plan. >> translator: just yesterday i asked you to vote for a democratic reformist,
12:10 am
proukrainian and pro-europe majority. i thank you for listening to me. i thank you for supporting that call. people in parts of ukraine controlled by separatists were not at the polls. many areas devastated by ongoing violence, didn't take part in the vote. separatists are looking to hold their own elections next month. shocking news out of south africa today. senzo meyiwa, the captain of south africa's national football team has been shot dead. police say the 27-year-old was in a house with seven other people when the shooting occurred. apparently it was an attempted robbery, and three of the suspects took off on foot. the orlando pirates football club issued a statement, confirming the untimely death, they said, of our number one goalkeeper. the club also says they'll hold a news conference later monday. well, another student has
12:11 am
died from a shooting at a u.s. high school. we'll have more on that coming up and we'll also tell you about the teacher being called a hero for stopping the shooter. also ahead, britain has handed over control of its last base in afghanistan, a ceremony that marked the end of uk combat operations in that country. we'll have the hospital, stay with us. les... shh! taste better in our savory broth. vegetables!? no...soup! oh! soup! loaded with vegetables. packed with taste.
12:14 am
school in marysville, washington. it was a girl. 14-year-old gia soriano, a freshman, brand new to high school, died at the hospital where she was taken after fellow student jalen fryberg shot her in their cafeteria. through a statement, her family said they're devastated by this tragedy and they plan to donate gia's organs. all this young, first-year teacher is being called a hero. witnesses say she stopped fryberg's rampage, by grabbing his arm. two of fryberg's victims were his cousins. they and another teenager are in intensive care at washington hospitals. another student, another girl, died on friday, and fryberg apparently shot himself. >> as the community grieves and tries to make sense of this, which they probably never will, the high school will be closed all week. over the weekend, students did
12:15 am
return to collect their book bags and backpacks. everything they left behind as they evacuated. now this report from our cnn affiliate in seattle, as they made their somber journey back to school. >> i don't know if i can do it. like, it's pretty hard to walk back in, knowing that you've seen all of it happen. >> marysville-pilchuck students lined up, many of them reluctant to return to the scene of the horrific crime. security made sure students went to the right place to collect their belongings left behind in a moment of terror. >> honestly i can never look at the cafeteria the same again, after knowing what happened there, knowing that there was blood on the floors. >> according to sources, once detectives finish processing the crime scene in the cafeteria overnight, the backpacks were taken to the gymnasium to keep students from going anywhere near the lunch room. >> this is unbelievable.
12:16 am
i can't imagine what my 14-year-old is going through. this is not something a child should have to suffer. it's not something anybody should have to suffer, but a child. >> she says one of the victims who died was like a daughter to her, the best friend of brianna johnson, who is still in shock. >> it's hard because i know my best friends got shot and i don't know really how to process it right now. >> but the school district wouldn't release backpacks and belongings to anyone other than the rightful owners. so students and parents make the somber procession back to the school, relying on each other for support. >> this community is really kind of bonded together through this. >> again, a report there from washington state. the united kingdom has formally ended its combat mission in afghanistan. british and american marines lowered their respective flags.
12:17 am
itv's john irvine was there as the allies marked the end of an era. >> goodbye, safe flight. >> farewell to hel mand. a hercules transport loaded with significants, for it was flying shortly after the union flag stopped doing so here. this lowering, amounted to the official end of britain's afghanistan war. 13 years since the campaign began. they called this the end of operation ceremony. and it feld to brigadier rob thompson to receive his nation's colors, a poignant moment after a long war. >> there was regret over every single serviceman who's lost their lives here and been wounded. but what i can tell every single
12:18 am
member who served here and every family who is sent their loved ones here, is that we have made a difference. >> the ceremony was at camp bastian, an iconic british base, until today, when we and our partners, the americans, gave it to the grateful afghans. >> thank you, all the british soldiers, sailors, marines, whoever they were in hel mand, what they did for providing security and also training of the ana. >> at the height of the war, there were 40,000 international troops in bastian. now the barracks, the vast hangars and workshops are empty and perhaps a little eerie. this is a place all our personnel who served in hel mund are familiar with. the british military haven't set up anything else on this scale since the second world war. and they may never do so again.
12:19 am
to all intents and purposes, for the last eight years, this vast place has been british territory. but now our mission here is over. and for us, camp bastian is redundant. a piece of british history. last month the service took place here to honor the british fallen. the remembrance wall on which all are named, is to be resurrected in britain. the epitaph on it reads, when you go home, tell them of us and say, for your tomorrow, we gave our today. there are few tomorrows left for the british here. the last of our equipment has just been airlifted out, and the rear guard of a few hundred soldiers will follow shortly. >> well, afghan defense officials welcomed the end of military operations in their country, and they say, afghan forces are more than prepared to assume control of security.
12:20 am
>> translator: we definitely welcome this act, which puts our capabilities into practice. afghan security forces have been leading the fight in ground operations in the country for two years now. >> well, an afghan cleric has received the maximum 20-year prison sentence for raping a 10-year-old girl in may. he was also ordered to pay $30,000 in fines. in court saturday, the little girl confronted her attacker. a local man who taught children religious studies. a women's rights group applauded the sentence in a country. it was a nailbiter when the nfl played in london. we'll tell you why it was such a bold business experiment as well. we'll tell you why it was a bold business experiment as well.
12:23 am
another weekend of american football in britain. 80,000 turned up at london's wembley stadium to see the detroit lions overcome a 21-point deficit at the half. the lions beat the atlanta falcons with a last-second field goal. final score, 22-21. for the falcons, it was their biggest blown half-time lead in team history. that's a long way to travel to get beat in such a nail-biter. well, sunday's match-up was the
12:24 am
second of three regular season national football league games being held in the british capital this fall. it was also a bold business experiment, as we learned from cnn's jim bolden. >> well, this is the tenth regular season nfl game to be held here at london's wembley stadium since 2007. the question is, does the nfl have the ability to put a franchise in london? they want to grow their international audience. they want to grow the merchandise sales around the world. they really see this international series as a test case for growing this global audience. they want to make billions and billions of dollars around the world. can they put a franchise here? a lot of people are now saying it's more likely there could be a franchise in london. we already have a team called the jacksonville jaguars, who've agreed to play four seasons of one regular season game. they've done that once. they'll play here for the third match next month for this season. so the nfl expanding to three
12:25 am
regular season games in london is a big deal for this nfl franchise possibility here in london. if not, well, they're already selling more than 80,000 tickets for each game. that's more than you'll get at most stadiums in the u.s. so that is a good sign that international fans love the nfl. someday there could be a franchise. jim bolden, cnn, wembley stadium, london. >> ivan cabrera is with me to talk weather, but let's talk football. i love the idea of american football in london. >> and you have the cheesehead beard. >> he's at the krowrong game. >> but what a great game, right up to the last minute. >> as long as you're not an atlanta fan. >> we were asleep, we missed it. we had it on the dvr. but hopefully it won't take as long as soccer did here to catch on. >> exactly. >> let's do some weather here. talking about a tropical
12:26 am
cyclone. kind of rare, natalie, to get them in the arabian sea. not completely rare. these things happen a couple of times a year, but most the cyclones that develop in the north indian basin develop over here. this is the arabian sea. there's the peninsula. this thing is headed towards oman. it looks ominous, but it will make a turn to the northeast over the next few days. i think it will get close to oman to feel effects there. winds now at 120 kilometers per hour, equivalent of a category 1 hurricane or typhoon. tropical cyclone is about the only name we get. so it's headed north and west, and by tuesday, will be making a close approach to oman and then begins to turn. we have a troth digging in from the north. that will pull it towards india and into pakistan. but i think the dangerous winds will remain offshore so we don't
12:27 am
have to worry too much about catastrophic damage. but there will be strong winds certainly across parts of oman. here's the track of the latest. it should be peaking over water. 165 kilometer per hour winds, if we were to take that and put it here, we'd be dealing with a completely different story. but that's not what's going to happen. it will weaken as it heads northeast into pakistan. so by the time it arrives, i think we'll be dealing with a tropical storm, gusty winds, but mainly a rain event, not so much wind. >> that's good, but pakistan has had enough rain events and flooding. all right, ivan, thank you. >> well a nurse who treated ebola patients in west africa is being treated like one herself. she says she's not sick, but is she ever angry. her story ahead. also, many of the westerners joining isis come from denmark. that problem is bad enough, but
12:28 am
12:29 am
12:30 am
back to our viewers here in the united states and around the world. i'm natalie allen at cnn center. here are our top story. dilma rousseff has won a second term as president of brazil, getting more than 51% of the vote. her opponent nieves conceded defeat and called her to congratulate here. rousseff went to twitter to thank her supporters. votes are being counted in ukraine's election. but president poroshenko says he believes his bloc and his allies
12:31 am
have won majority. he expects a coalition to be formed soon. there was no voting in parts of ukraine held by pro-russian rebels. a quarantined nurse said she feels like her human rights are being violated. caskaci hickox was put into isolation at a new jersey hospital after she returned from treating ebola patients in sierra leone. she says she has no symptoms and has tested negative for ebola twice. hickox spoke with cnn's candy crowley about what she's been through over the last few days. here it is. -- with me. you have put me in a unit, without communicating medically or public health, you know, scientifically logical chain of events that need to happen next. this to me is just completely unacceptable. i spoke with him at 6:00 p.m. last night, and now it's 11:00
12:32 am
a.m., and i still haven't heard from anyone as to what the plan is next for me. >> as far as we know, and this certainly does not relate specifically to your case, that it is a 21-day quarantine. can you describe to me, like, where you are right now. what does it look like? are you in the hospital? in a room? >> sure. i'm outside of the university hospital itself in a building, i believe. although i can only say what i can see from my tent. i'm within a building and it's just a basic tent structure. there's a hospital bed. obviously they bring me food. i have kind of a porto potty type of rest room. no shower facilities, and no connection with the outside world except my iphone, which i insisted that i brought with me when i arrived late friday night. >> so, let me ask you this from
12:33 am
a different point of view. you have been over in sierra leone, i think, everyone would salute someone who really does put their life on the line to go over and help others. and we've heard over and over again while you've been away, how vital it is for all countries to send workers, doctors, nurses, other health care workers, to fight this disease where it is in order to, you know, save those countries, as well as protect the rest of the world. but understanding that the doctor who is now in quarantine in new york city was home seven or eight days before he spiked a bit of a fever, and then was put into isolation. do you understand the need of governors, be they from new jersey or new york or illinois, to say, we can't take this risk that somebody is out there with a fever, or will spike a fever eight or nine days after they arrive. we need to make sure they're in
12:34 am
isolation until we know they are past the danger zone. do you understand that psyche? >> i completely don't understand it. i really -- it is completely not understandable to me. it is not based on any clear public health evidence, and it's not the recommendation of public health and medical experts at this point. you know, i think we have to be very careful about letting politicians make medical and public health decisions. and all of the evidence about ebola shows that if you are not symptom attic, you are not infe infectious. >> new jersey's governor has no apologies for his state's policy. here he is. >> we need to protect the public safety of the folks in the most densely populated area in the country, and that's what we're going to do. and i understand this has made this woman uncomfortable, and i'm sorry that she's uncomfortable. but the fact is, i have the people of new jersey as my first and foremost responsibility, to
12:35 am
protect the public health. that's exactly what i'm going to do. >> on twitter he clarified the policy, he said effective new jersey residents could be quarantined at home. non-residents would be transported home, otherwise they would be quarantined in the state. we turn now to the fighting in the middle east, and the relentless battle for the city of kobani. according to the syrian observatory for human rights, 815 people have been killed in this kurdish border town since isis began its siege last month. it's believed almost 500 of those killed have been isis fighters. >> smoke hung over the horizon sunday after explosions to the south and clashes in the last of the city.
12:36 am
the u.s. coalition has carried out five air strikes since saturday and another 12 in iraq. kurdish defenders in kobani have been waiting this weekend for reinforcements. cnn's nick paton walsh is following development from the syria/turkey border. >> the key question for the syrian kurds, holding on to kobani and appearing seemingly upbeat, when will they get assistance? they're meant to travel through turkey and come into kobani. turkish president erdogan saying in comments today to reporters that he thought the syrian kurds didn't want to see the peshmerga fighters arrive at all. and there are increasingly complications about their passage to kobani. that tallies to some degree with what they're saying to us, the syrian kurds. they don't want the manpower the peshmerga bring, they want the weaponry. >> nick paton walsh there on the
12:37 am
border. iraq says it dealt a blow to isis over the weekend, regaining control of an air near baghdad. iraqi soldiers and shia militiamen were seen celebrating after taking an area south of the iraqi capital. international fears are growing over isis's ability to recruit western jihadists abroad and inspire lone-wolf terror attacks at home. one european country that's especially concerned is using a controversial method of terror prevention. we'll examine denmark os so-called deradicalization program. >> there are an estimated 100 danish fighters in syria. that is a lot for a small country. denmark has one of europe's highest rates of jihadi fighters, and it faces a dilemma. what to do when these fighters come home. >> omar in his early 20s, recently returned from syria. his parents thought he was helping at a refugee camp. he was fighting with a jihadist
12:38 am
brigade. he spoke to us on condition of anonymity. >> in reality, i have met a lot of western people in syria, and nobody has ever talked about getting back to bomb these countries, as they are trying to make it sound like in the media. >> omar is one of 16 known fighters to return. on arrival he did an unradical thing. he contacted the danish police program for returning fighters volunta voluntarily. >> were you nervous about coming back home to denmark? >> no. i wasn't that nervous because i knew i didn't do any kind of criminal act or something like that. >> here's how the program works. any returning fighter is eligible for help getting a job, a house, an education, and psychological counselling, just like any other danish citizen. but they must be screened by police. anyone found to have committed a crime will be put through the courts and possibly prison. information is always passed to
12:39 am
danish intelligence. >> this is not a gift shop. you have to be motivated. you have to want to become part of the danish society. we help them find their way through the system. what we've seen, out of the 16 who have returned, ten of them are now back in school, have a job. it seems to us that their focus is on something else than in syria. >> police here say it's a danish solution that's not that special, simply a crime-prevention program with a focus on jihadis. and it's voluntary. omar is one of those who decided he didn't need the help, but he has friends who are in the program. >> they don't help people by arresting them, by raiding their homes and taking away their passports, and putting them into prison. >> importantly, the program does not try to change the fundamentalist beliefs of returning fighters, as long as they do not advocate violence. >> they are still muslim believers, some of them in perhaps a way that we would call radical, but not to an extent
12:40 am
that's as far as we can see, they are a throat to the society. >> omar believes the program is preventing attacks back home, but he also says he might return to syria. >> the young people have a lot of feelings. so if you're going to be humble to returning fighters, they will be humble if you will not be harsh towards them. >> what advice do you have for somebody who cowants to come ba home from syria? >> i will tell them there's nothing to fear if you want to come back. >> the alternative would be fighters that return and disappear. this program is designed to help while also keeping a close watch. so how did a country like denmark, listed as one of the world's happiest places to live, see such an unusual speak in
12:41 am
fighters? we'll examine that tomorrow in a special report here on cnn. breaking news from south korea, prosecutors are seeking the death penalty for the captain of the ferry that went down killing more than 290 people, many of them high school students. the news came during a court hearing. crew members of the ship were seen earlier walked handcuffed to court. the captain and three crew members have been charged with homicide. prosecutors say three other crew members, besides the captain, should receive life in prison. and they want a 30-year sentence for the young woman who was at the helm of the ship at the time of its sinking. again, more than 290 people confirmed dead after the ferry sank in april. as i mentioned, many of the victims, schoolchildren on a field friendship. prosecutors say the crew abandoned ship after telling passengers to remain in their cabins. nigeria claims it has a
12:42 am
12:43 am
12:44 am
in borno state. killings happened thursday and a reescalation of violence after the government declared a ceasefire with the militant group earlier this month. this alleged truce raised hopes that those 219 girls abducted back from april would be released, but those hopes are fading. we're joined now from nigeria's capital. trying to figure out this story has got to be complex, because it was the government saying they had a breakthrough with this group. and now not only do we not have a breakthrough, we have more killings. >> hi there, natalie. that's absolutely right. it's made it a difficult situation to unravel. as you rightly pointed out, the government saying last week, they had reached some kind of ceasefire deal with boko haram that would lead to the release of the 219 girls held for six months now, and following that,
12:45 am
almost immediately following that, we've seen these near daily raids in the northeastern part of the country, which is really destabilized life. last week, we heard 60 women and girls had been taken from two christian villages. we heard that news, it trickled out slowly, because there's such poor communication in that part of the country, largely due to boko haram's destruction of telecom towers. then we get word of some 30 boys and girls taken from a village in borno state, a neighboring state. boys as young as 13, girls as young as 11, we're told by a local journalist. all of which really adding to the sense of confusion as to what is really going on. is there really a ceasefire deal with boko haram? have they agreed and are they sticking to it? or is this a sprinter faction of boko haram carrying out all these attacks? the government continues to say
12:46 am
as we ask this question repeatedly, that boko haram, in the negotiations they are having, are disowning these attacks that are taking place, st saying they are not responsible. but it's worth pointing out, boko haram have not made any public comments since the announcement of the ceasefire, so it all remains very murky, very unclear. natalie? >> but the talks go on in another country, right? because really there's not too much military presence in borno state, right? that's pretty much taken over by boko haram? >> i had a slight technical problem, so i didn't hear you completely, but, yes, the talks are happening in nearby chad, mediated by the chadian president. we've within told by government officials that these are face-to-face talks involving
12:47 am
chad, nij earia and boko haram representatives. three states in the northeast have been under a state of emergency since may of last year. that's not brought any security to the people in the region who continue to deal with near daily attack by boko haram militants and have really destroyed any sense of normalcy. natalie? >> we thank you for that report. a palestinian american teenager has been buried after the israeli military shot him dead. palestinians say this is the latest example of their children being killed. but the israeli military said it was eliminating a threat. now more from the west bank. >> these are the latest moments of 15-year-old or wa hamad. on the edge of his village in the west bank. israeli soldiers shot the palestinian american dead. >> a real bullet.
12:48 am
not a rubber bullet or tear gas. a real bullet come out from his head. >> people here say that clashes like this occur to a weekly basis. and local authorities and family members tell me it was around here that or wa hamad was throwing stones at israeli soldiers. at some point, the soldiers opened fire. but the israeli military tells a different story. >> the military declined cnn's interview request, but issued a statement saying the israeli soldiers had prevented an attack. it reads, palestinian man was identified hurling a molotov cocktail on road 60. the soldiers immediately respond and eliminated the threat by firing at the perpetrator and confirming a hit. the incident is under review. the us state department also released a statement, calling for a speedy and transparent investigation.
12:49 am
or wa's family said he came to the west bank to learn about his religion and his culture. he was staying in sill watt, a palestinian village wedged between an israeli military base and an israeli settlement. human rights activists say the frustrations of people here are felt throughout the west bank. >> palestinians are in the street protesting this continued occupation, and all of its variables that impact them on a daily basis. so when they are out to express this frustration, they are constantly met with force, excessive force. >> in the past six months, alhock counts at least ten palestinian minors killed in clashes with israeli force rs. the youngest was 11 years old. >> this young man, the whole town, the whole neighborhood, the whole area, the whole state, is with him, because he's an innocent young child. >> the death of or wa hamad,
