Very well written and a wake up call for all human race.

bismillah. jazak Allah khayr Amad for that article link. WOW!! talk about a person who was so sure of her own victim complex. comparing the two letters shows that the arrogance of most israelis really is built on a premise of shutting their eyes and ears to anyone’s pain other than their own. and the decorum that the Filistini sister displayed in her reply could teach boatloads to Muslims everywhere, mashaAllah.

i hoped to find any kind of follow-up to that piece — to see how the israeli replied. but i did not find one.

what i did find was a piece about israel’s haredim community. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/7553860.stm

amazing just how respectfully the article was written. while it mentions that secular jews find haredim gender roles “primitive,” note that even here it makes clear that the divide is between the religious and the secular. the article could have been just as accurate and said “most” jews, but instead it calls the majority secular. a stark contrast to how Muslims with similarly conservative views are almost universally branded as extremists.
