Did You Know?
The following is also a list of Did-you-know facts that we don't hear about in the media. Western governments hide these facts from the people in order to show how "righteous" Israel is and how much of victims they are, and that we, Arabs, are the terrorists and that we do not want peace, whereas Israel is promoting peace. America is full of shit. Just look at how racist and violent Israel is.
