It's all well and good, I just wonder why the Saudis, Emiratis etc don't adopt more of the Palestinians into their countries...I know why..it's because they all hate each other and it's just more convenient to point the finger at the west. Seriously, there is so much corrupted wealth in those countries yet they don't raise a finger to help their supposed 'muslim' brothers.

I am delighted and relieved to see that we might get a more realistic glimpse at the people of Palestine via a look through he children's eyes in refugee camps.

In exploring Palestine, far too much ink has been spilled on violence in the Middle East, with the most interesting and endearing people pushed aside as our media clamors for the most shocking and violent story to tell. We dismiss good and gentle people everywhere and miss the point....

With all the talk of politics and terror it is easy to forget that Palestine is simply its children, wherever they have been scattered, imprisoned or not in impoverished refugee camps.

I have huge hope for the children of Palestine and their ability to educate themselves and all the world about the very real plight of the Palestinians. A picture is worth a thousand words ... I very much look forward to buying a copy of the book when it is finished.

May Palestine and all the refugees return as soon as possible, before even more damage is done to the many innocent men, women and children who simply want to go home to hope and a decent world where our past, present and future, including all our children are ALL valued and nurtured in positive ways as an important part of a true community.

I'm sure that footage has plenty of clips with- Hey! There's one now. Ferox, put your pants back on and get away from those kids. That's not even legal in Palestine!
