The author comments on Khals Jalabi´s “The need for Gandhi in Palestine” and Ma´amoun Fandy´s “The Arabic media was defeated in Jenin.” Jalabi called Arabs for nonviolence and civil resistance in their conflict with Israel and Fandy criticized the Arabic media. The author said that his comment is not to defend the Arabic media or to justify the Arabic weakness but to show that some writers write about the misery of the Arab world in a way that leads to nothing but depression and frustration.
