Sir you think using an excerpt from a novel you can convince us...Either you are too simple or we are fools. And we are not fools.It doesn't work that way, sir.
...Nadia, according to her own words, studied social work a the Hebrew University in Jerusalem for two and a half years. She didn't finish: she took a break, and then "studied music for five years at the Jerusalem Academy of Music and Dance, where I got a degree in music, specializing in voice." She tells me her music teacher, a German-Jewish woman, was "my mother" but that after graduation from school she is no longer in touch with her.
Why?
"She is an occupier"
Nadia's capacity to throw away a woman she had called "mother" for five years at the very moment she didn't need her anymore is striking....Nadia, who lives in Jerusalem, is an Israeli citizen and carries an Israeli passport, tells me that "life under occupation" is awfully bad.and that the Jews "almost killed my daughter" [because] she had to feed her baby in the car [on a hot summer's day].

You see, when you give unreason license crazy unjustifiable hatred is sure to follow; you can no longer put faith in what you may believe to be the natural goodness and fairness of people, as you attempted to invoke here.
