משפחת נתניהו בצפת: האם יש עירוב ואיך קראו לאשתו של מנוח
The above link points to an article regarding the prime Minister's visit with his family to Tzefat, how one of his sons went to shul and asked if there was an eruv. During the Prime Minister's walk though the city, someone wanting to test the Prime Minister's knowledge of Tanach, asked him what was the name of Manoach's wfe. The Prime Minister responded that her name wasn't written in the Tanach.
Wife of Manoach; Samson's Mother: Midrash and Aggadah
The NYTimes has an article about Jibril Rajoub, president of the Palestinian football association who dropped a "bid to suspend Israel from international soccer competition."
He said the Palestinian situation was “even worse than what was in South Africa,” which FIFA suspended from the 1960s until 1992. “There they wanted them to be slaves,” Mr. Rajoub said, referring to South Africa during the apartheid era, adding, “But here in Palestine, they don’t want us to be.”

Perusing headlines from recent years including, Israeli hospital treats Hamas PM Haniyeh’s granddaughter, Hamas chief’s sister treated in Israeli hospital, Israeli hospitals treat large number of patients from Gaza, and Israel Electricity Company sues Palestinians over debt, I am left wondering, if Israel doesn't what the Palestinians to be, why would they provide them water, electricity and medical treatment?
