Palestinian Girls Who Attended Coexistence Summer Camp in U.S. Face Ridicule at Home


(Gatestone Institute) Khaled Abu Toameh - Palestinian teenage girls are facing ridicule and hate for attending a summer camp for coexistence in Santa Fe, New Mexico, organized by the Creativity for Peace group.

Such campaigns will surely warn any Palestinian leader against seeking real peace with Israel.
