    IBTIMES (http://bit.ly/1q0PyEO) reports that despite his resignation, Palestinian-born Mohammed Dajani maintains that visits to places like Auschwitz are essential for the next generation of Israelis if there is to be a full understanding of the Holocaust and how it relates to the current situation between Israel and Palestine.

    “You need to understand the other because reconciliation is the only option we have. And the sooner we do it the better. Empathising with your enemy does not mean you sanction what your enemy is doing to you,” Dajani said.

    Dajani said he faced death threats immediately following his return form the trip, and while university officials initially ignored the threats, it eventually provided armed body guard for Dajani and stood behind his right to “academic freedom.”

    The pagan palestinians just want to KILL people. They are criminals in their own mother’s womb. Disgusting hate.

    An Israeli university should offer him a position.

    I’m surprised his head is still attached to his shoulders.

    of course he should resign; he does not hold the official line that the holocaust never happened and went one step further, he actually visited the living and lasting tribute to the memory of those millions of Jews murdered by the Nazis.

    this is against the Arab popular notion and he could be conceivably be killed for his politically unpopular opinion. Sort of like that Jew fellow Sterling who called a spade a spade, I mean a Afro-American citizen a black.

    The Americans fine you and kill you in business if you are politically incorrect, the Arabs fire you (with gasoline) and kill you (with torture) if you are politically incorrect.

    Bottom Line: do not think outside of the box. Big Brother is watching.

    This indicates that the hoodlums who run the PLO and HAMAS also subject their own population to abuse and thought control. Why don’t they use the money they get from the US and others to build schools and hospitals, housing and roads? Where does all the money go?????
