Hello! Greetings to you.
My name is Ihtisar. I am 11 years old. I like to swim. I want to tell you that Jerusalem is the capital of Palestine and the Israelis want to take it from us. They have killed many people. We want to protect our homes.

Greetings in God's name. I am Diana. I am 12 years old. I am in 6th grade. I was very sad when the Israelis came to our land. But when the Internationals came, I am very happy. They want us to forget the sadness in our lives and to laugh and play. I thank my Uncle Deeb for making the summer camp in our village so we will forget the sadness in our hearts and play again. You make us happy. Thanks to my Uncle Deeb. I will never forget him. I thank you three times for making the summer camp. It is good and it makes us happy. Thank you.
Diana....... Age 12
