His country, his family, his death, his heroism, his courage, his strength, his life, his knowledge,  his inexperience, how many things must have crossed the mind of Faris Odeh the boy in the  photograph before facing that tank with a simple stone, without knowing the repercussion of this  act and thus changing a small fragment of his life. 


The image shows a boy, who proves to be very daring. The boy stands still on the battlefield in  front of an Israeli army tank with a stone in his left hand; From the position of his body, he must  be thinking of throwing it. The tank seems so big and dangerous that it makes the child look like  an insect, it is chilling to put yourself in the situation of the one who was driving the tank to know  that when you look through the peephole you would find the body of a child. It also appears to  be quite dirty; the tank may have passed over a sandy surface. Behind the tank we can see the  silhouettes of some men, they could be part of the army, innocent citizens or people trying to  prevent the child from getting hurt. 

It is beautiful to think that the thought of saving his nation made him act in this way, without at  any time being aware of the chilling events that could have happened. Not everything in the world is peace. There are people in many places who suffer, who go  hungry, who lose family members. i all for not having the same opinion, religion, tastes, sentiments and many more things ... The story of this boy is not well known, but how much he would have had to go through at his  young age to do this heroic act ... It gives a lot to think about and to act on.
