I used to have him on my friends list, a few facebook accounts ago, when he was first running for office.

I know a few Palestinians here, not far from where I live, and they are some of the best people I've met. They are always nice and offer me food and like to have conversations with me. I've never had any bad experiences with them.

G-d said we will be a light unto the nations. Thats what you are witnessing.

There are lights that are brighter than yours. I don't think it has anything to do with your heritage. I believe it's based on the will and drive to succeed. Much of that seems to be based on societal attitudes and pressures.

Yes, AMAZING food. There is a place here owned by Palestinian Christians, which I like a lot.

I've had a lot of experience being around Palestinians. I like their food, I respect their culture, and also their cause.

Yes, Palestinian food is very good. I like Eastern Med food in general. Lol, I'm a foodie so I like all sorts of food from all over the world. I think the best way to experience ones culture is through food.
