[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just look at the flight you are thinking of booking and look at its route on Flight Radar.  You should be fine, but if the route goes over Israel, Palestine, Lebanon, Syria, Ukraine, Russia, maybe Poland, Iraq, Iran, then you might want to reconsider.  Also, you could just connect in London, Paris, Germany, or any other place in Europe.  The Middle East airlines are a little nicer, but it’s a long flight to Qatar and Dubai.  Connecting in Europe might be preferable, so you can avoid a 12+ hour flight.[/quote]

Palestine?[/quote]

The West Bank, Gaza. It’s not really controversial—these are places that are not Israel. When I visited the West Bank (a few years ago) my Verizon network said “welcome to Palestine” on my phone. [/quote]

It’s not OK  to dehumanize these people by erasing their country and pretending it doesn’t exist. Please stop. We see you. Just say no to all dehumanization attempts including anti Islam, anti Palestinian, anti Arab and Anti semitic efforts. All are wrong!! There are no chosen people, just humans. Be human![/quote]

Erm, what are you talking about? I just said that Palestine exists. I gently suggest that your fervor is causing you to read things that aren’t there.[/quote]

Obviously this is not directed at you. It’s directed at the poster who questioned the use of the word Palestine like it’s a radical thing. [/quote]
