I once met a Palestinian here. He was "educated" in Moscow after the six day war. This man had to adapt to their new enviroment here, especially as his daughter once dated a boy. In Palestine, the father would have had to kill his daughter, perfectly normal, as a traditional honor killing ritual. I was glad to hear from him that he no longer believes that this is the right way to go. Either way, these Palestinians should have been sent to Arab countries. Why donīt Arab nations like Syria and Saudi Arabia accept these refugees? If they donīt why should Israel accept them, much less Brazil. We are a peaceful country - potential terrorists are not welcome here.
