Ya 3eeb.. What a shame

This morning while eating breakfast with my dad, watching CNN and talking all at the same time, on TV comes a picture of Hamas militants with their guns in the air, their heads high in pride, and a bunch of half naked men with their arms behind their heads walking through the streets. The conversation abruptly stops, and we hand our heads in shame.

Is there any hope left? We can blame Israel all we want, but when it comes to this we have to sit back and take a look at ourselves. Where is the discipline and self control? Where’s the focus?

On another note, I found it extremely interesting how Abbas went from “heading a terrorist organization”, to literally being called a “US backed Palestinian leader.”

Welcome to the Middle East.
