A Very Unfair Consulate Survey

Yisrael at My Right Word presents a very unfair survey currently being conducted by the US Consulate in 'East Jerusalem' (the local division of Condi Rice's State Department and the consulate office that most Jerusalemites and Judea and Samaria residents use):
(For those of you having trouble reading it, try clicking on the image in order to enlarge it).

Now, imagine you are an Arab. Well, at question 8 you'll most probably check "yes". After all, how is anyone at the Consulate going to check if you've made a true or false statement?

Question 9, you'll take a chance and note the third choice, at least 3 checkpoints.

Question 10, you'll check that it was "very difficult" for you to travel to the Consulate. Why not?

And then, these surveys are collected and once a year, they make their way into the U.S. Human Rights report or they'll be used to confront Israeli officilas. Or Condi Rice can say with impunity that there is daily humiliation of "Palestinians". [“I believe that there could be no greater legacy for America than to help to bring into being a Palestinian state for a people who have suffered too long, who have been humiliated too long...]
