English teacher: So Kareem, what is the topic of your English research assignment?
Kareem (age 14): It is about the Arab-Israeli conflict.
English teacher: That's a very interesting topic...But what side are you taking?
Kareem: The Palestinian side.
English teacher, looking worried: Oh!! Hmm...That might get touchy; you have to be careful what you say.

honestly, thats what the teacher told him??? if he was siding with the other side, he could say whatever he wanted to say?? what audacity!!!
Exactly Lujayn, things have started to 'get touchy' when Kareem said he's siding with the Palestinians.
Be it as it may, I salute Kareem for standing for justice. Such stance is not always easy to defend and maintain.
thats shocking! Where did this take place?
