Kristof goes almost esctatic: " imagine if Palestinians stopped the rock-throwing and put female pacifists in the lead. What if 1,000 women sat down peacefully on a road to block access to an illegal Jewish settlement built on Palestinian farmland? What if the women allowed themselves to be tear-gassed, beaten and arrested without a single rock being thrown?"
Well, let's first imagine women in Arab society having freedom, equality and treated with a bit of secular liberalism. Let's imagine no honorcide killings of women who must die for the family's sake for flirting. Let's imagine no female suicide bombers. Let's imagine no rapes of Christian women in Behtlehem.
There's a lot to imagine. Unfortunately, Kristof is not imagining but fantisizing.
