I have opinions about this

These opinions they aren’t very popular in my country. I think this is really strong work. It’s our job as artists and writers to put these issues under the microscope. This violence and forceful diaspora of the Palestinian people in the name of the state of Israel is terrible. It’s my belief both groups deserve to enjoy their motherland. The United State of Palestine and Israel perhaps. Maybe one day we can get it sorted out. Until then we hope and we write.

Amazing job on the formatting,
Tim

Thank you Tim

I'm thankful for reading my work and leaving such an honest comment. I don't think Palestinians will ever accept a one state for them and the Israelies. This is politics that never works with people. I just, like you, hope peace shall prevail sooner than later everywhere on this loving planet.
Thank you!

Thank you!

It breaks my heart too to see young men and women daily killed with cold blood only because they ask for justice and for defending their homes and families.
Your words mean a lot !
