I generally don’t hate people. With the sole exception of people who have betrayed the trust I put in them and tried to stick a knife in my back. Not more than three or four in all my life. I am not going to name them.
I have not met Netanyahu on a private basis more than two or three times.

The second time we met at a photographic exhibition, in which there was a photo of me wearing a pilot’s helmet. (Don’t know how and why).

Rohingya children are facing threats either from severe weather approaching Bangladesh where hundreds of thousands are sheltered in squalid, overcrowded refugee camps, or by ongoing violence in their Myanmar homeland, the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) on 23 February 2018 warned, calling urgently for scaled-up assistance ahead of the region’s storm season and to address the root causes of the crisis.
UNICEF/Nybo | A three-year-old Rohingya refugee stands against the bamboo frame of the shelter her family is constructing in Balukhali makeshift settlement, Cox’s Bazar, Bangladesh.
“Some 720,000 Rohingya children are
