What Do the Palestinians Want?

Apparently, a new city!!!!

In meetings with the American ambassador to discuss investment projects to help the Palestinians, Palestinian officials mentioned a new city to be built between Ramallah and Jericho. It will still be a city under occupation, but, hey, it's brand new and shiny and some people will line up their pockets building it!

Now, what shall we name it? Jerallah?Ramicho? Moronstown? What?

Posters and billboards, but if you look beneath them you can glimpse Manara Square, Ramallah (Where have all the trees gone?)

Filling the pockets of the rich: Americans and Palestinians. When will there be justice for the poor Palestinian?

I was thinking about this.

Imagine what it will look like. This city center where only upper middle class can live while houses and farms are being bulldozed around it. And the majority live in refugee tents on rubble. I'm sure Israel will get a percentage.
Who is the real colaborator?????
