Translated since it's in Spanish...
Maariv Newspaper from Tel Aviv posted a story today of an Israeli couple, who having barely survived the tsunami, were aided by a Palestinian couple who were also in the same area, Phuket Island in Thailand.
The recently married Israeli couple had only been there for a day, when the huge wave stormed into their room, and literally imploded on top of them.
While extremely lucky to have escaped without major injury, the couple did lose everything they had with them, including money. That is when a Palestinian couple from Jerusalem offered help, including money so that the Isarelis could return home.
"They were incredible people. They gave us money to pay for another room for the night, and money to buy return tickets. Just amazing", said Yosi Inbar.
According to Israel's foreign Ministry, 150 israelis are still missing.

Of course, the Arab couple should plan to remain anonymous, in order to avoid being murdered for collaborating, by Hamas, Islamic Jihad, or some other mass-murdering org from the PLO.
I've always said that if you stopped feeding the masses in Palestine 'jihad' garbage, you would probably find out there a re a lot of decent people living there.
Maybe they finally felt 'liberated' enough now that Arafats dead.
Wow.. big time Man Bites Dog story!
