A Grave Dispute

I'll keep this short as it doesn't deserve more than a passing mention.

The Israeli-Arab Pro-Palestinian, Juliano Mer-Khamis, son of a Jewish woman and a Christian Arab Communists, who was shot dead in Jenin, presumably by a fanatic Arab who rejected attempts at coexistence and reconcilliation through art and theater, will have his gravestone removed and fixed.

The first one, by his first wife, had words in Hebrew and Arabic only.

His second wife, a Finn, wants English added.  (And Finnish not?)

The story is here in Maariv, in Hebrew.
