iReport —

I do believe that Israel has the right to exist and thrive - but for some reason I cannot forget that the people of palestine used to own all these land and everything over there before 1943. Sometimes I think what would happen to me if one fine morning my neighbour or somebody from Argentina comes to my house and says that some holy book and god gave them the right to my property and I have to leave everything - what would I do then?

This happened to many Hindus in Bangladesh - then east pakistan and I have seen their suffering

On the other side I see every family in palestine has 6 to 16 kids - these are freaking poor almost homeless people - how can they have 6 kids - they have no economy and virtually beggars in all respect - well let their Allah help these 6 kids - we need more aid

For the other Arab countries - probably Israel treats the Arabs the best - have you seen how Palestinians are treated in Egypt, Jordan or Syria - they are not treated as human but these are supposedly their best friend - your best friend is not always the person who gives you an AK 47
