RAMALLAH, West Bank — Taha al-Qatanani said he was expecting just an ordinary day as his daughter headed out the door early Nov. 22. He had no way of knowing she would never return.
"I thought Ashraqat was going to school when she left the house," he said of his 16-year-old daughter, who was killed that day at the Huwara checkpoint south of Nablus after allegedly trying to carry out a stabbing attack against Israelis.
