brothers and sisters,
I am in tenth grade, and I would like someone to help me with a project I am doing on Palestine.
I am supposed to be writing from a Palestinian's perspective on the conflict, and daily life as a Palestinian.
I do know about how horrible it is there for Palestinians, but I need more detail and research.
There's not many Palestinians here. Well there's like me and another sis but we don't live there. I can help you with what I saw myself from being over there if you like, or tell me what questions you want to ask, maybe I can answer some of them for you?
I'm a Palestinian. Well sort of, I live in the State of Israel and I am an Arab Muslim, who is a citizen. However, I have family who live in the West Bank.
What questions do you wish for me to answer. I'll log on a bit later tonight, or tommorow morning.
Thank you Abd Mez.
I just wish to know what it is like to be living in the middle of the conflict. I am writing an article from the perspective of a Palestinian in the area.
What are your views on the issues?
Is the conflict affecting daily life? Are there problems/violence?
I have heard stories about checkpoints. Have you or your family experienced problems like such?
What is your outlook?
I really want to get a lot out of this project, and because I am Muslim, want to understand the situation. I was thinking of visiting the region later with some friends.

Alright.

My views are that of one which wants peace. Yes there is some violence but overall I am not really a huge victim. What I am shocked about sometimes is the amount of media coverage the Muslim world puts into 1 person dead here, which is of course sad, yet in Darfur or Chechnya, courageous people die and no one in the Islam world cares.
I have heard stories about checkpoints. Have you or your family experienced problems like such?
What is your outlook?
Yes, I have experienced a checkpoint, but I am angry at both sides for it. A check point I have gone through before was about to close down and they were going to allow trafiic freely, to go through, and what is the first thing that happend? A terrorist takes advantage of it and stabs a Jewish child and a Muslim one, not even knowing if they were Jewish or Muslim, and killed a women. Then they opened the check point back up, which I really hate the checkpoints, but would they exist if idiots did not mess things up and go on killing sprees?
I really want to get a lot out of this project, and because I am Muslim, want to understand the situation. I was thinking of visiting the region later with some friends.
Thank you
No problem, as me anymore questions you have, and I will answer InshAllah.
