Poetic Obituaries: Seventeen year old Amer Nassar left a poem.

When others of his age write on Facebook of their dreams, aspirations, exams, plans, dates, travels, on 15th March, his last entry, he wrote (translated):

"Point your bullet where ever you like in my body
I will die today, but my homeland will live tomorrow
Be careful, Palestine is a red line."

from The Palestine Chronicle: Palestinian Amer Nassar, Aged Seventeen: A Last Poem
