I wrote this article recently: http://www.nowpublic.com/world/tel-aviv-al-jalzoon-refugee-camp-30-miles-world-away and while my stuff is not on CNN or the NY Times, it will be one day. And I will still be writing this way. Keep your chin up. I just wanted you to know that there are people writing about the human side of the conflict.

Don't feel that way about your country. It is not just Egypt, the whole Arab nations are like that these days. <b>Mafish:</b> I have deleted your hateful comment. This is not a place for hate speech and mindless shouting. I am more than willing to have a real civilized debate with any person out there, but no hate speech, and no racism. Maher: inshallah.

Don't apologize for your identity - embrace it and be vocal about it. Don't let this social pressure destroy who you are. A guy I know went to Germany, and he was a Palestinian who prays w bikaf rabbo and always holding his identity dear to him. He succumb to the pressure and now can't be seen outside night clubs. Don't let them get to you - you are a strong individual and you are proud of your identity. You shouldn't apologize to anyone about who you are. Show them they're wrong, be a good man with your good acts and show them that we're not terrorists. Change the minds of the niche around you and you won't suffocate like you are now.
