Beaten For Being… Palestinian

“Three football players at Guilford College, a school with a Quaker background, face assault and ethnic intimidation charges after an attack on three Palestinian students, authorities said.
The victims were beaten with fists, feet and brass knuckles early Saturday by attackers who called them “terrorists” and used racial slurs, the News & Record of Greensboro reported Tuesday.
The college will allow the three to remain on campus while it conducts its own investigation.
Two of the students who were attacked, Faris Khader and Osama Sabbah, are students at Guilford. The third, Omar Awartani, is a student at North Carolina State University in Raleigh who was visiting.”

All I can say is: it has always been, and it’ll always be the average Palestinian who’ll pay the price.
Thanks to the media for portraying Palestinians as dangerous terrorists, thanks to Israeli extremists for brainwashing the crowds, and thanks to Fatah & Hamas for reflecting such a shitty picture of Palestinians by fighting each other in such an irresponsible stupid way.
