Choices
Today in Gaza, you could choose to die in four different ways:
By an Israeli missile By a guided Palestinian bullet to the heart By a stray Palestinian bullet to the head By a heart explosion out of frustration, fury, and despair.
You insult reading comprehension skills by this comment. The point is not that Arabs choose to die. The point is that Gazans are dying right now, from a variety of violences, and that the variety itself presents its own sort of violence against the soul.
It feels like violence of yet another sort to have to translate into such dead language what Amal expressed so movingly already, for anyone inclined to listen.

You insult Arabs by this comment! Arabs do not choose to die but rather its the Jews (ie Mossad) who plot to divide us.
Hamas won democratically yet the Jews impose sanctions on us after asking us to call elections to remove the corrupt Fatah as condition for peace.
I am an Arab Palestian man who voted for Hamas as I believe they can succeed in uniting all the 22 Arab States as an Arab Union.

Israel is killing with the help of America.
The Arabs that shoot back, are doing so in self defence.
If they didn't shoot back at all, Israel and America would already have taken all their land.
Support the Arab Countries.
