OPRAH YOU MUST VIST PALESTINE

Dear Oprah,
You are planning to travel to "Israel for a solidarity visit". Israel's UN Ambassador, Danny Gillerman, said that a 'visit of a figure with such influence on the international media could help bring an end to the indifference towards the terror threat faced by Israelis'. This statement as well as your visit is troubling, frustrating and confusing us all. You are renown to stand for peace and to support the weak and the oppressed. As we all hailed for apartheid in South Africa and the God given right for all people to live together with equal rights, how can the world idly watch the continued building of the apartheid wall in Palestine? How can the world stay quiet about the thousands of men, women and children who are continuously tortured and confined in Israeli prisons? How can the world condone the Israeli constitution which only permits rights as a proper citizen to those of one certain religion? What is Danny Gillerman talking about? According to all international bodies worldwide (Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch, United Nations etc.), Israelis are the terrorizors and Palestinians are the terrorized. One of the greatest leaders of our time, Nelson Mandela, said "The Palestinian-Israeli conflict is not just an issue of military occupation and Israel is not a country that was established "normally" and happened to occupy another country in 1967. . Israel has deprived millions of Palestinians of their liberty and property.
circumstances! During your visit, please go visit cities like Gaza Hebron, and Jenin in order to witness a life that is considered inhumane and, as a result, worthless to those enduring such humiliation. We hope that you will visit the Palestinian women and children who are taunted, raped, tortured , dehumanized and killed everyday while they guard their homes and families from everyday warfare . You will be amazed by the hope most of these people still have - their faith in God is great.
We hope you re-consider the basis for your visit. We want Oprah to promote peace and co-habitation amongst Israelis and Palestinians.
Thank you!
FRIENDS OF PALESTINE

If she wants to be objective and fair she shoud visit Palestine as well, because there is ALWAYS two sides for any story.

OPRAH really has to visit palistine and see the injustice that the whole turns a blind eye to every day,a place where the sun rising is a blessing coz that means you survived last`s air raid if not the month long invasion by israel,i think that its about the midle east`s pit bull be put down,but if we cant,we know one day the dog will turn and bite the owner and then,they will see that the animal is a monster and something needs to be done with it,by then more israeli`s will have lost their lives and even more palistine people will have died.something needs to be done and soon.
