"Palestinians: We don't deserve a state"

I agree. A few choice excerpts:

"Everyone here is disgusted by what's happening in the Gaza Strip," said Shireen Atiyeh, a 30-year-old mother of three working in one of the Palestinian Authority ministries. "We are telling the world that we don't deserve a state because we are murdering each other and destroying our universities, colleges, mosques and hospitals. Today I'm ashamed to say that I'm a Palestinian."

No argument here! Here's some more:

"The world is watching how the Palestinians are destroying their institutions and achievements with their own hands. They see how we are mercilessly slaughtering innocent people. We are losing the sympathy of the world. I'm afraid the world will now view us differently."

You can read the whole article here. A glimmer of hope, one would think. Perhaps these people are ready to grow up. Here's to hoping, however small that hope is.
