Even when non Jews were permitted into the country to work and then left for home, daily... many of them were using the Israeli tolerance and coming into Israel just to detonate bombs
Question. Will those poor children, having sought and receiving extensive medical care and treatment from the hated ISRAELIS, be in any danger from the fanatics of their own world? Frankly, it wouldn’t surprise me at all.
After all, it could be a matter of family HONOR.
Well, they ARE female....
If you’d like to be on or off, please FR mail me.
