29. Are you at surprised that the Israelis might culturally respond
Wed Jan 4, 2017, 04:26 PM
Jan 2017

after seeing so many murderers and terrorists openly applauded, paid and rewarded for their crimes by the PA, the more "libera" Palestinian government (as opposed to Hamas, a recognized terrorist group, in Gaza)?

Maybe if Israel named a street in Jerusalem after the soldier to honor his "heroism" the PA would get the message.
