The DIfference Between Israel and Serbia

The difference between Israel and Serbia is that Serbians didn't donate a lot of money to US political campaigns, therefore they were forced to abide by humanitarian law at the end of US missiles. Israel has bought and paid for her security in the US Congress and therefore can continue to commit humanitarian violations and the US government just acts like it isn't happening. A truly great country wouldn't make that distinction. We, like other large and prosperous civiliations, wiill be brought to our knees by our own ineptitude, bad decisions, and greed.

The News about Palestinians You Never See on an Israeli or American News Site

The following story was reprinted from IMEMC.ORG, a non-profit news organization in the West Bank that I occasionally write editorial articles for. I often get emails and comments regarding my support for the Palestinians, which by the way is based on personal facts, personally experienced. When I read this and think of Middle East Peace, I think... Yes WE CAN!!!! These are the Palestinians that I know...

Palestinians rescue a settler woman, her infant, near Bethlehem

A group of Palestinian men rescued a settler woman and her infant after her vehicle flipped over on the main road of the Palestinian town of Tiqua’, south east of Bethlehem.
One of the young men who rushed for the rescue of the settler woman stated that she was speeding and that she lost control over her vehicle.

The vehicle flipped three times in the middle of the street, and immediately, Palestinian youth rushed for her rescue and managed to safely take her and her 4-month old infant out of the vehicle.

They provided the settler and her infant with the needed first aid until an ambulance arrived.

Ahmad Allan, one of the youth who rescued the settler told Maan News Agency that he and other young men first broke one of the windows of the vehicle to safely evacuate the infant, and then rescued the woman.

He phoned an Israeli ambulance, and shortly afterwards the ambulance arrived at the scene and evacuated the woman and her infant.

Allan added that “human feelings are stronger than the feelings of hatred and enmity which the settlers provoke”.

One of the youths said that although settlers are living on lands illegally annexed from the Palestinians, yet this is a humanitarian issue that made them forget the hatred and ongoing assaults carried out by the settlers.

The woman is from Tiqua’ settlement which was illegally built on lands illegally annexed from the residents of Tiqua’, and some other nearby villages.

This road where the accident took place witnesses frequent clashes between Palestinian youth, settlers and Israeli soldiers.

Recently, the army started installing an iron wall along the main road in the center of the Palestinian village.

Several Palestinian young men were killed and wounded by Israeli military fire and also by settler fire on this road.
