Waiting.
If this picture doesn’t personify the Palestinian experience, I don’t know what does.

At least he is in Jerusalem! Think of all those in Refugee Camps waiting.
Sam, I think that in the interest of some unity I would argue that all Palestinians and all Arabs are waiting for the exact amount of time, regardless of the degrees of their circumstances.
when what you just said Nas will turn to reality…there will be no more need for waiting
Nas, i beg to differ. Waiting for a nostalgic place is different than waiting to return to your home. I, as a Palestinian who is living in the comfort of a house ,is not feeling the same pain of waiting like a Refugee in Naher El Bared is. Yes, we are all wiating, but they have a more painful kind of waiting.
Random…Tina took pics of this guy a month ago in Jerusalem 3end Bab el Khaleel
