Maan News Agency: PA, Israel team up to fight mixed marriage
Bethlehem - Ma'an - It wasn't the first time Israelis and Palestinians
joined together in an attempt to break up a Jewish-Muslim couple, only the
most recent. Years after authorities ended a similar relationship in Beit
Sahour, near Bethlehem, they're at it again.
First it was phone calls from the woman's "family." "Hello, we represent
Sima's family and we come in the name of . organization. We ask you to
return the girl to her parents." "Hello, we represent Sima's father. He came
to us as a clan and we demand that you return the girl." "Hello, I'm Rabbi
... . Tell your husband that we are ready to pay him half a million shekels
if he returns you to your parents."
These were just a fraction of the phone calls that continued as the weeks
and months went on since Muhammad Hamamra, from the Husan village west of
Bethlehem, fell in love with a Jewish woman, Sima, from the neighboring
settlement. Muhammad worked as a contractor in one of the Israeli houses
there, and their relationship lasted four years before the two were recently
married.

Perhaps they will have to move to a nation that is a bit more tolerant of mixed marriages. Canada maybe?

That would be a very wise decision. Now all they have to do is sneak around their parents and such and I think they'll be just fine.

It's nice to see that the Israelis and Palestinians can cooperate on something,
I guess....

 

[lone wolf]

...even if it does still mess up lives. At least, no one dies....

Excellent idea.......shame on both sides in this case.......

Which is to further fuel/continue their hatred and devision of each other?

Seems a bit odd, lol.

Romeo and Juliet I presume.

I assume they want to break it up to prevent anybody else getting the idea that their hatred for one another (nations/cultures) isn't as deep as their governments would like you to believe.

"Racial" purity is an odd and somewhat oxymoronic concept considering we all came from Africa. Religious purity is, well ......

i wish Şimon Peres married Mahmud Abbas like two of them...
i would be very happy then.

Not to mention, when used in context with Palestine/Israel, it's almost moot. They're separated by religion, not race. Unless of course you're talking to an Arab Mulsim that has a chip on his shoulder.

lol That's what I meant by the six little dots after "well". lol
Oh, and then there's always "national" purity, too. That's worth a roflmao

I actually watched one of the movies they flashed in that vid. I can't remember then name dammit, but it was awesome. It was retrospective view of the Lebanon invasion, animated and it was a scathing indictment of the Israel Command.

It amazes me how the Israeli Film Board helps fund movies that are critical of Israel.

Something about that just screams freedom.

It is a free country, They know and can appreciate what they have.

Agreed. I'm hurriedly trying to find the name of that movie. You might actually like it. It's got subtitles though. But it was rather illuminating and well done. Although I didn't much care for the animated format. I think it would have had a larger impact, if it was live action.
