  1. In the morning I wake up, I thank God to be alive and hope to live fully as best I can, with the goal of doing good.
    I find myself doing a tunnel, you know why?
    Because I am free, very free, but in a golden prison, a jail that reminds me of the ghettos, the ghettos of Sarsovie, the ghettos of Soweto!
    Can someone tell me why I am I alive, I suffer, I suffered so much injustice as a beast without rights in a ghetto?

  2. you suffer because you are NOT free. You are brainwashed. you suffer because you are ignorant . You suffer because people like you are nothing but a cheap tool for the rich and fat BILLIONAIRE dictators that send you and your children to die for them. You are not free. Free people build, create, invent and LIVE. They don’t advocate death. You are not free and never will be free as long as one hateful breath is left in your body no matter on who’s land you walk on

  3. Where are you living that you do not have rights, Djamel? If you lived in Israel you would have voting rights, education, health care, right to be in public places, freedom of religion and the government would give you a stipend to raise any children you have. Some people are in bondage because they are ruled by hate; is that you?

  4. thanx to the zionists people like you in Gaza and the WB have water and electricity… thanx to the zionists they are able to put food on the table. The zionists treat their sick,, build them factories and roads and give them education. thnx to the zionists arab women and girls can read and help support their families… NONE of these things your dictators provide for yu otherwise yu would not be in Europe you would stay home

  5. Ruth Feldman I live in the prison built by the Zionists, for people who have not chosen the place where they were born!
    I know that israel there are two kinds of people and you know like me!
    Admittedly I am a Muslim, but a Muslim Jew, this may shock you, however it is the reality. I consider the Zionist ideology as an ideology contrary to any form of faith!
    I know that Zionism uses Judaism to mislead many Jewish believers

  6. Let them burrow. Let them invest time, money, and energy into their tunnels. Better to let them continue, and for IDF to decide when to collapse them. Because IDF knows exactly where they are. Destroying them now would only allow Hamas to regroup.
