Deliberate Murder of 10-year-old Girl by Israeli Military

A tape recording has surfaced showing that Israeli soldiers deliberately killed a frightened 10-year-old little girl in Gaza, who had been identified to them as such.

If the tape is as described, this seems a clear case of a crime against humanity.
