1. What? The camel-humpers have malls, a stock exchange???
Antonio ,   Haifa   (11.02.06)
And from reading all the drek in the media you'd think they all live in squalor and don't have the money to buy food.
2. Mall in Ramallah

The comment by #1 is very disturbing. Jews should be well aware that even when the majority are suffering, some people are doing well. Polanski showed this in his movie, "The Pianist". When Jews were literally starving to death in the Warsaw Ghetto, the Pianist was still playing for rich Jews, in exchange for some food, in the expensive restaurant in the Ghetto. Economic cooperativity with the Palestinians is a must for peaceful co-existence.

5. Malls? Money? Designer clothing?

Whew! I'm so glad they dont all live in poverty like the media has brainwashed me into believing. Thats a good thing though! They can see how much nicer things are in the West and how much easier life is for free people. Maybe they will get the message that hard work pays off very richly as compared to being addicted to handouts and the "you owe me" mentality. Now if they could shake the religious insanity crap maybe someday we can see good looking muslem women in tight jeans shopping in the malls all over the world. I don't even mind if they want to keep the face rag... that's even sexy in a nice middle eastern way.

You should take some history classes before writing things you have no Idea about , all relegiouns talk about the same things that you no nothing about , it seems you think only between your legs .

8. ignorance ,As if Ramallah in north Poll
Peter SA   (11.02.06)
ask your military men who invaded Ramallah they will tel you what they found there ...to be very ignorant dosent help ... an officer in a destroctive mision in Ramallah sead it is cleaner than Tel Aviv this is more important than selling Israely Fashion there
9. The mall is geting worst by seling H&O next to Beneton

10. #6 Abdallah - "Thinking between the legs".
Toledo Man ,   Toledo Oho USA   (11.02.06)
Yea, me and several BILLION other men in the world have a tendency to think that way. God made us this way. He made beautiful women. So what's the problem? Don't criticise normality. Take care of the parade in Jerusalem before you try to criticise the musings of a normal straight man.
11. I Love Arab COLLOBORATORS!
Jew ,   Eretz Israel   (11.02.06)
I think the mall owner is one :) I surely hope he will live long.
12. after reading some of the posts
popo   (11.02.06)
i am wondering who reads this collumb, what in the hell is wrong with you all. i think its great thay sell israel clothes, and i hope thay will sell a lot more thing and vice a versa because if anything in this earth keeps people to geather its personal gain, business, money many companys use palestinans to make popular brand clothing and thats great if thay have a way of earning a good living the palestinans will not want war all the time thayll have too much to loose. go for it h&o and may many more follow
13. we all think is great
bewildered   (11.02.06)
we just had no idea how well off these guys were doing !
14. plaza mall and h&o
todd ,   palestine   (11.12.06)
why is everyone making a big deal about this. I am an american and shop from the mall it is clean, the staff are very friendly , they promote palestinian products and sell Israeli products it is very difficult not to. I wish them luck and move ahead.
15. intresting point of views...
Alaa ,   Ramallah,Palestine   (11.16.06)
the problem is not in hosting and selling an israeli product by the palestinian side, but does israel accept a palestinian product to be sold in their Malls and markets? i doubt that my self, coz you guys are very closed on your selves, you don't like to share, u love to destroy our economics, so that we be forced to buy yours. if the israeli side would open trade rote with the palestinians, then i don't mind making the same and accept their products in our malls. end...
