The new generation has inherited seven years of fruitless negotiations with Israel, six years of the first intifada, 35 years of occupation, and 54 years of displacement.

Does this make sense? How can I be displaced from a place 20 miles away where I was not born and where I have never lived? Isn't it long past time to work to better my circumstances in the here and now?

It's not like the opportunities aren't there. What happened to the billions of dollars in development given by the United States and the EU?

If foreign nations decided to divide your homeland and give half of it to foreigners. If armed men came and killed your parents/grandparents/ neighbours and drove you out of your homes(for which you still have the keys) and you were born in a refugee camp in Canada would your see your self as a Canadian or would yourself as an American who wished to return to your homeland. What would you say to those who say there never was a America or such a thing as an American, and why can't you make a place for yourself in Canada?
