Questioning
I am a 17-year old American writer for the teen section of my local newspaper, which circulates in the suburbs of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. I am looking to do a feature piece on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and daily life seen through the eyes of an Israeli and Palestinian teenager. I have no requirements for correspondence, except for the fact that I would need a timely and thought out response to my questions.
I would appreciate it very much if you could help me.
Sincerely,
Mike M.
The Questions
If you are between 16 - 18 - please send me your answers.
1.) You've dealt with terrorist attacks for years now. How have they affected your daily life and how do you try to protect yourself?
2.) Do you believe the Palestinian's have a just cause?
3.) Do you support the creation of a separate Palestinian state?
4.) The world views so many negative things in your part of the world. What are some positive things that we don't get to see that happen in the daily life of an Israeli?
5.) What are you feelings on the recent wave of anti-Semitism in Europe?
6.) How do you feel about being forced to serve in your country's military?
7.) What does the Israeli side need to do in order to achieve peace in the region?
8.) Do you know of anyone close to you who has been injured or killed in a terrorist attack? Have you been injured in an attack? Please shortly describe how the attack happened and the aftermath.
9.) Are you in favor of President Bush's "Road Map"? Do you support Mr. Sharon's go-it-alone policy to peace?
10.) What do you honestly think of the United States?
Again, thank you very much. The utmost importance is that all questions are answered honestly and completely. I will be able to offer a copy of the final product to the person who answeres these questions.
