I was born in Brooklyn (like everybody), but I served in the Israeli army; my first reserve duty was the Six-Day War. My father was a Palestinian--born in Poland, emigrated to Palestine when he was three years old, in 1920. I inherited a deep love of Israel from him. I hate the stream of lies I read and hear daily about Israel. I love Israel's people--all of them. [Contact me: joel dot orr at gmail dot com]

What about Arafat's money?
With all the documentation of Arafat's billion+ nest egg, where is the international outcry? Why is nobody, including the "Palestinians," asking anything about the gargantuan effrontery of his milking his people--and then crying to the world about their poverty? What about the sources of this money--largely European? Did they really intend for it to wind up in Yasser's private bank account? Hello?
