YNET NEWS: Iraqi man sends letter to Foreign Ministry saying Hamas has made him ashamed of being Arab
The Foreign Ministry's Arabic-language website received a letter Saturday from a repentant Iraqi man who says he and his fellow citizens have been "brainwashed against Israel".
The man added that Hamas's recent attacks on Israeli civilians have caused him "shame" for being an Arab and a Muslim.
"For a long time we believed that Israelis are dangerous barbarians due to the brainwashing we underwent during Saddam (Hussein)'s rule but now I see (Arabs) being massacred in a wretched and shameful manner by Sunni and Shiite rulers," the letter says.
