Hoder in Israel

Hoder, the Iranian blogger is in Israel. He writes:

I'm going to Israel as a citizen journalist and a peace activist.

As a citizen journalist, I'm going to show my 20,000 daily Iranian readers what Israel really looks like and how people live there. The Islamic Republic has long portrayed Israel as an evil state, with a consensual political agenda of killing every single man and woman who prays to Allah, including Iranians.

I'm going to challenge that image.

Israel and the west have long painted the Arabs the same way. There are good people on both sides. The are also bad people on both sides as well.
