Jul 23, 2008 - It's clearly sad that he's living in a tent ... but the report doesn't say why ... (or did I miss it?) Also, just curious, why don't you check the subtitles for grammatical errors before broadcasting the reports?

Jul 23, 2008 - Is it because of some sort of racial hatred? The way he said other people didn't want him back, the blood on certain walls seemed like a warning to certain people of the population. I can't get over the fact that the people who are now running HIS shop basically stole his life's work and he can't claim it back. :(

Jul 23, 2008 - Why? There is so much shit in this world, so many horrible things, is it really that good to dwell on them? Start walking from your home and in a few hours you can end up in a place similar, in your own third country (for me at least, I'm serious and I live in the USA)

Aug 6, 2008 - I wonder why she didn't mention palestine, I mean if she wanted to talk about dramatically sad news, what's a better example than the palestinians..? don't think they even have the right to go back to their homes, yet again, most of them may have been already razed to the ground...and some of them have been razed to the ground with people still in them. That's it, I'll do myself a favor and stop here, it's so sad though
