What a great article. Says it all... I had no idea. Thank you.

but, that doesn't fit the pre-arranged paradigm so who cares?

But what more could I expect from my old pal? Thanks for the great article.... first time I have smiled all week - living as I do in the general area "south of Haifa". If anyone can influence the "intelligencia of the foreign press" it's you! And thanks to you, David Garth, for the first proper laugh I have had in ages even though I didnt understand the in joke. I remember your name, even though you probably dont remember me! LIz

And what do you feel? Are you Jewish? So what is an American with an Arab wife doing living in Israel?

i'm with her - those terrorists want to kill her and me both. and they will hand out sweets and celebrate if they do so. i'm not jewish but i know enough to know who the good guys are and i support them 100% against islamo-fascists and their ilk. we like to live here. nice people, good food.

This article seems to capture the conflict in very human terms. I appreciate the honesty!

to give you the exact date of when they want the Jewish population in Israel to roll over and die. That's the true headlines they're waiting for!!!

Hilda, Can you re-read the article? Where do you think the writer has an Arab wife? And if he does... There are couples here who are Jewish and Arab. the article was well written from a humanistic point of view. Arlene

hilda wasn't talking about the writer of the article...she was referring to mike #4. read be4 u open your mouth...

How is it your business? I find it great that different people live together in peace...Arabs live in Israel and are treated very correctly by most Israelis, except for a bunch of retards who did not learn from Jewish history. Are you a Jew? I hope not.

marcusol You put it so well when most of us would be trying to changing underwear, well most of you. jerf

Well done Marcus. So proud of you. A well-written piece which answers so many questions. J

This article has made me realise why we are here in Israel on holiday and did not cancel our trip! We have seen signs in the shops telling us 'Discount for brave tourists'....... ......We are not the brave ones! We are very proud of you Marcus!

very moving - beautifully written
