What is the purpose of this article? To promote political jokes about Israelis throwing arabs out of their homes? How funny would they find it to hear that he played a suicide bomber trying to kill Jews? Or better yet, how he used his tricycle to practice drive-by shootings to kill a father of seven. That is the real truth but it is always better to vilify Jews! This is a contemptible article at best.

He sewed firecrackers in his underwear to smuggle to school on the school bus. Unfortunately, he had a premature emasculation.

I could see how some Israelis could be upset with this article - the idea that Arabs can be funny and not just terrorists will make Americans like them.

i don't know why some jews/israelis are pissed off !! the fact that an israeli news article was about Arabs (in a good way), or the fact that the first paragraph was totally true, or the fact that no matter what israel is doing to the Palesinians we still keep the smile on our faces, or the fact that the American people are now liking Arabs more than israelis? it's weird that israelis remeber some "attacks" made by a Palestinian many years ago (where maybe two were killed or just injured), and yet forget about last year's massacre of Gaza (where more han 1300,most women and children were murdered), or even the most recently brutal murder of the Palestinian by a settler running him over and over with his car while everyone is watching like it's an everyday event!!! weird ha? yea i guess we are the terrorists afterall... FOR LAUGHING.

First of all, as an American, I can assure you that after all the hijackings, terror attacks, and various other forms of savagery. And then, of course, we were treated to the footage of Palestinians celebrating in the streets after the attacks on 9/11. And if you think that none of this has caused Americans to feel like we've had it up to here with the Palestinians, you're sadly mistaken. And, as far as your obviously selective memory is concerned, were you hiding under a freaking rock during all those years of Palestinian suicide bombers blowing themselves up all over Israel? Wake up man. It's not Israel's fault the Palestinians are still living in the dark ages. Blame it on the people they elected to govern them...those fanatical thugs from Hamas, who even the European Union considers to be terrorists.

Even if it's by bombs, not humor.
