"Many people in the West do not know what the word "Intifada" means.

Currently, the Palestinian people are being oppressed by Israel. This manifests itself in many ways; from the use of bullets and missiles against demonstrators; to the continued building of settlements with no respect for Palestinian rights; from the removal of Palestinians from their homes; to the continuos disregard for numerous United Nations resolutions.

Intifada is simply the defense of the Palestinian people against this oppression

Intifada: Arabic word stands for shaking off or shivering because of fear or illness. It also means abrupt and sudden waking up from sleep or unconcerned status. Politically; The word came to symbolise the Palestinian uprising against the Israeli occupation. The word also stands for the weakness of the Palestinian people and their suffering under the Israeli occupation"

Somewhat ironic don't you think that he is holding a sling and making a peace sign with his other hand. Seems to me as if a first might be more appropriate.

I read history, and jews have no right in being there.

Even thier bible doesn't specify a place for their temple, but they decided to build it on the "ruins" of The Far (Alaqsa) Mosque after destroying it. That's why there is a lot of tunnels being dug under the mosque.
