Palestinians Learn to Hate


(Israel Hayom) Nadav Shragai - Palestinians are not born hating Jews. That hatred is learned. This is how for generations they have been churning out terrorists who shoot, stab and run over pregnant women, children asleep in their beds, and soldiers and police officers on guard duty.
