頑張れイスラエル！

I am writing this message from Kibbutz Yiftah.
I as one of japanese living Israel would like to say some words.
When I was a student, I thought Israel was right and Arafat was evil.
But since I came here, I have been starting to think that Middle East disputes are not so easy, one-is-right-and-the-other-is-evil issue.
The fact I found here was Israel-Palestina problem is more thorny, deep-rooted issue than I had thought before.
Indeed, though Israel got glory and freedom by overwhelming Arabian, but the increasing numbers of criminal incidence, the recent economic recession and the concerns with regard to series of suicide bombers are unacceptable.
