Palestinian leadership isn't even willing to make peace with its own citizens, let alone Israel or anyone else that doesn't goose-step to their warped ideology. Why do liberals here advocate so strongly for them?
What it's like to be gay in Gaza: Meeting Israelis on dating apps, evading Hamas and plotting escape
Excerpts:
Homosexuals cannot live openly in any Arab society in the Middle East, including in Gaza, the West Bank and Arab cities and villages inside Israel, but this doesn’t mean of course there are no gay men and women in those societies.
Jamil tells about a friend who was imprisoned for three years for being gay, under false accusations of conspiracy with the Palestinian Authority and espionage. He himself spent a month in jail about two years ago – after posting a statement on Facebook in favor of gay rights in Gaza.
“I’m trying so hard to get out of Gaza,” Jamil says.
