Israeli dogs get more coverage than Palestinian human beings
“An IDF-trained dog by the name of Miky has put the Police Department of Helena, Montana on the map in recent days.” And this dog was featured in US newspapers too. I won’t be surprised if this dog gets an appointment in Obama’s National Security Coun…

The enemy

Mish`al
