how significant do you think prince william's visit is to the west bank?engaging and connecting with palestinian youths. he is a young prince and he met with young palestinians playing football with them, visiting a school. however, i am not sure i see anything good to come out of this visit because i don't think that the conflict or the issue is related to mutual friendship and respect. what about the political implication? i understand that the visit was announced as nonpolitical, however looking at his store in the west bank, there is nothing without a political implication —— looking at his door. for example, visiting a school in ramallah is great, however what is the implication of education? prince william assured the president that britain is going to support education, palestinian education. but some children wake up in the morning and find their schools demolished. there are palestinian children who are arrested by the israeli occupation. education is negatively impacted by the israeli policies. i understand that it the israeli policies. i underst
