Qatar has donated $6 million to build a soccer stadium in an Arab-Israeli town, the first time that a Gulf Arab state has donated money inside Israel. Ahmed Al Tibi -Arab Israeli MP- said that "It is the first Arab initiative on this scale in support of the Arabs of 1948 [Arab citizens of Israel] against deliberate Israeli discrimination."

I think it is time some Gulf money got into Israel to help PALESTINIANS. At least, I hope that it is who will benefit, and that he will assure that Palestinian contractros, engineers and workers will put it up.

people also need to know that the donations aren’t going to Jews, but Arabs who are being discriminated against in Israel.
