Does the death of a Palestinian worth the same as that of a Jew? For six decades, Israeli Jewish leaders with utter impunity have been killing defenceless Palestinians and justifying their crimes as “self-defence” of Israel and all Jews.

As a new Muslim from Christian background, I totally believe in the return of Issa.... I always did since I was a child. It really makes my heart soar when I see how all the prophecies happening...
