Mohammed, 14, barely glanced at the Israeli military judge as he was led shuffling into the cramped courtroom, his legs in shackles.
The Palestinian boy had eyes only for his father, and mouthed the traditional Arabic greeting: Salaam Alaikum" - peace be upon you. Seven minutes later he was sentenced to four months in prison.
The prosecutor said the boy had hurled rocks at a watchtower and at Israel's separation barrier in the occupied West Bank. Upon his attorney's advice, the boy pleaded guilty to avoid spending even more time behind bars.
Human rights groups say Mohammed's case is typical for alleged child offenders under the military law Israel imposes on the Palestinian territory.
