Aug. 9, 1971 A YOUNG family and a misguided boy met on a road in Gaza several months ago. The encounter, which stunned all Israel, is reconstructed by TIME Correspondent Marsh Clark: Robert Aroyo, his wife Preeti, and their children Marc-Daniel, 7, and Abigail, 4, had lived in Israel only eight months. Born on Malta, raised in England, Aroyo abandoned an advertising job in London to bring his family to the land of promise, where he felt they all belonged. Settled in the Tel Aviv suburb of Kiron, the Aroyos often spent Sabbaths touring their new country. One bright Saturday they set out south to visit Gaza. (from TIME)
A Palestinian Boy threw a grenade in to there car. The Children died. Preeti was badly wounded and Robert had blood all over him.
I visited the Aroyo's at Beer-Sheba Hospital. I was in the Army.
We lived in Kiron and my parents knew them.
As a result Ariel Sharon "Went into" the refugee camps in Gaza.
