I can not find it anywhere in the life blog. Are you sure it wasn't translated/transcribed wrongly?

I also cannot find it anymore. Weird that Al Jazeera would bother removing it. You can find the quote elsewhere in that site, though, and in many other sources.

Sometimes quotes get mistranslated and the only people that catch it are the ones for whom Arabic is their mother tongue. AFAIK the Palestinian Arabic dialect has some differences with what journalists at Al Jazeera might be used to.
