Original Note:
This child is not dressed as a terrorist they are simply wearing a keffiyeh which is common in the Middle East. The fact that terrorists wear it does not mean it is inherently terroristic. For Palestinians it represents "resistance, unity, sovereignty, and revolution". https://handmadepalestine.com/en-ca/blogs/news/the-meaning-of-keffiyehs-to-palestinians https://egyptianstreets.com/2023/10/23/what-does-the-palestinian-keffiyeh-symbolize/ https://www.middleeasteye.net/discover/palestine-keffiyeh-resistance-traditional-headdress
