Excuse me, but you live on my land. AlJazeera's Bila Hudud had a special commemorative show on the 10th anniversary of the station. Several people from AlJazeera were telling anecdotes from their experience. One of the presenters, Jamal Rayyan, a Palestinian, told this story. He said that once he had to interview Shimon Peres. He said that he got so angry at the end that he inserted a question that was not prepared. He told him that he (Peres that is) lives on a land that Rayyan's family owns (they still have the deeds), and asked him when the refugees will be permitted to return. I say this to Rayyan: the refugees will eventually return, and they will not need a "permission."
