NOt knowing the product I do have to say that---just like here in the U S we should not lump people into a uniform group. Jews do not, for the most part, vote as a bloc and neither do women, African Americans, etc; Which means, to me, that Palestinians, as well are not a monolithic group. As to the "oil rich" Arab nations---it is the leaders that enjoy the wealth and cater to the wealthy of all nations and damned be anyone else as they subjugate the poor who labor for them---from all nations.You just have to love the heartfelt belief in their religion---in their interpretation. Many years ago I was on an airliner seated next to a person from one of the Emirates. He ordered a drink and I asked how that was since I thought alcohol was not allowed---her replied--we just go to the next country that does allow it--religion is for the masses in our part of the world. We both had a drink and I toasted hypocrisy (silently). Bill Hahn
