How many need to die - Response to Ann

Dear Ann , I was borned in Palestine before the state of Israel was created and i belong to those who were forced to flee their homes , I still wonder why

There are radicalism and fanaticism in both sides , There are many israeli politicians who openly talk about a new holocaust and the destruction of the palestinians

Repression , injustice and very bad treatment leads to more haterd and risistance , Israel can not keep the palestinians trapped behind the wall or turn the occupied territories to Bantustans , there is no one who can accept this , not israel friends either

The wall cut the palestinians society in two parts , över 200 palestinian villages and its inhabitants are isolated , the palestinians in these villages can,t move without permission from the israeli army , It is a ghetto , it is inhuman and harmful to the future of Israel

This situation force the palestinians to do any thing to be free , There are no people in the world who want live under such circumstances , I do not believe that Israel can have the statuesque for a long time , the situation will be much worse and no one knows what will happened

with my best regards from Sweden
