"Are you American"?
I asked my class fellow and he nodded.
"And You"?
I asked another classfellow.
"I am British".
He replied.
"What would you do when someone knocks your door and asks for help to live in your home ".
"I'd probably let him stay in my home as he is facing bad days and doesn't have any shelter".
My British classfellow replied.
American also nodded.
"What would you do when that person would try to cross his limits and start claiming your house as his and start to push you out of the house?
I asked.
"What do you mean"?
The American asked while narrowing his eyebrows.
"I mean, if that person claims that he is the owner of the house and throw you out of your house, what would you do?"
I asked.
"I'd surely fight back for my house and if it's possible I'd do everything that I could be able to do".
The British said furiously.

"That's what they're doing".
I said, smiling politely.
"Pardon".
The British gave me a Questioning look.
"The same thing Palestinians are doing. They're just trying to defend themselves".
I sighed heavily.
"There's no need to debate on this as it is clear as crystal. That land belongs to the Pelastinians and they've had enough. They've been facing bombing, Deaths of their loved ones and so many things that we can't even imagine for so many years. This time, they couldn't bear it anymore and fought back."
I said sadly.
"It doesn't make any sense, it's not true."
The American said angrily.
"Of course, it doesn't make sense to you when you don't even know the truth. You just know what your CNN and BBC tell you in their manipulative way. Try to open your eyes and see the truth by yourself. Don't rely on these news channels that are also a puppet".
I said angrily this time and stood to leave as my heart was aching badly.
