The Right of Return Cannot Be Dismissed
Key to My Heart. To purchase this {PERFECT} tee-shirt, go to http://www.al-awda.org/shirts.htmlWhat right does this fascist woman [Livni] have to say that refugees evicted from their homes and towns and villages at gunpoint have no right to return to their homes? The Right of return is the centerpice, the core, and essence, of the Arab-Israeli conflict. Without repatriation and indemnification of the refugees, there can be no peace, not after 500 years. Khalid Amayreh, Palestinian Journalist
The Director of the Center for the Right of Return for Refugees reiterated Friday that UN Resolution 194 is nonnegotiable.
Two-thirds of Palestinians are refugees and are not about to relinquish their right. It is not a bargaining chip for President Abbas or Prime Minister Haniya. As a collective and individual right, is cannot be dismissed for any reason. Any official in whatever the office may be cannot make any decision that prejudices that right.
History will not be merciful to any who slacks off on the rights of sons to return to the land of their fathers and grandfathers, whether they currently are in Gaza, Jerusalem, West Bank, Jordanian, Egyptian, or Syrian camps, or living further outside in the Diaspora...

Buildings and Bridges
destruction in South Lebanon
Ani DiFranco's song "Buildings and Bridges" was rolling through my mind this weekend as I took my first trip to southern Lebanon to see the devastating damage from Israel's invasion. I was not at all prepared for what I saw. Indeed, Ani "what doesn't bend breaks." It wasn't just the buildings and bridges either; it was also my heart. http://bodyontheline.blogspot.com/2006/09/buildings-and-bridges.html

Saturday, September 23, 2006Israel not Hizbullah "spits in face" of International Community
Probably in reaction to the swelling support for Hizbullah on the occasion of Nasrallah's appearance, by not only Muslim but also Christian Lebanese, Israel's latest expletive is yet another example of gaping hypocrisy and chutzpah.

We want to go home!
The Palestinian Right to Return is a God-given right and cannot and should not be negotiated upon. Al Nakba (the Catastrophe) that displaced millions of Palestinians in 1948 must be repaired with Al Awda (the return) for those who care to do so. Neither Israel, nor the United States can take that right away. http://ampal.blogspot.com/2006/09/we-want-to-go-home.html

In the name of security, but not for its sake
It is crucial to know our past to understand where we are and where we may be heading. Israeli journalist Amira Hass does it again below. She has a very rare journalistic talent to extract the pulse of today by reviewing the historical context of the patient -- the patient here being dispossession of the indigenous Palestinian population!Thus, Denied Entry is a plan not a policy......

Clue: You can't have it both ways. If you believe Ratzinger intended to condemn all of Islam you cannot ridicule Muslims who agree with your assessment. http://www.karmalised.com/archives/001670.html

WATCH THIS VIDEO AND YOU WILL SEE WHY PALESTINE MUST BE FREE
Thanks to Umkahlil for posting THIS VIDEO on her blog.
Those of you who read my blog regularly know of my close personal relations with many Palestinians and of my adopted Palestinian family... When I watched this video I could only think... that this horror could happen to any one of them at any time.You will then understand why I take such issue with this topic. I do not speak as a stranger about these people, I speak as one of them. I cannot sit silently and watch as the Israeli government murders my people one by one... starting with the children. I hope some of you out there reading this will be as outraged as I am and do something, ANYTHING, to put an end to this madness. No nation would take from an oppressor what Palestine has been taking from Israel. It is unforgiveable and must stop NOW..... http://desertpeace.blogspot.com/2006/09/watch-this-video-and-you-will-see-why.html

Today, the 21st of September, marks the International Day of Peace. For most nations of the world it is a gleam of hope that peace will prevail one day. For the Palestinians this day is no different from any other day they lived -barely- under the occupation of the biggest threat to world peace, "Israel"..... Action Needed .....

20. September 2006Upgrading Israeli occupation forces from stealing food to stealing millions
Israeli army attacks Palestinian Banks and steals millionsState robbery?
Did they reach this stage? Oh Israel…
The Israeli army invaded several cities in the West Bank and broke into money changers’ shops and banks, confiscating some 1.5 million USD, on Wednesday morning. The seizure of cash comes after months of siege by the Israeli authorities, who are attempting to ’starve out’ the Palestinian people for the results of their democratic election in January.
Army invaded, Nablus, Jenin, Tulkarem and Ramallah, almost at the same time. [Source: imemc.org]

Tragedy in the Holy Land
To elaborate on ‘one palestine’s‘ comment, here is a documentary (Hat tip: Robin) that views history through the lens of the Palestinians, even though they are the people whose history and daily reality lie at the heart of events in the region. TRAGEDY IN THE HOLY LAND is an old documentary, but still valid today (since nothing changed since the occupation begin early last centaury) and fills a void in conventional accounts of the Israeli/Palestinian struggle. It gives the viewer access to the voices and background of one of the most misunderstood and misinterpreted conflicts of the history. http://sabbah.biz/mt/archives/2006/09/20/tragedy-in-the-holy-land/A Muslim Scholar calls for extermination of all Jewish MALES
When a Muslim/Christian/Arab/Palestinian fights for his natural rights, he is a “Terrorist“, but when a Rabbi calls to exterminate all Palestinian males, it is just a matter of opinion.... http://sabbah.biz/mt/archives/2006/09/19/a-muslim-scholar-calls-for-extermination-of-all-jewish-males/Raising Yousuf, Unplugged
Monday, September 18, 2006My potty training miracle...and other things
So much to blog about, so little time these days. Of course I could write about the unity government- which, as I told Pacifica Radio the other day, won't mean squat so far as the US is concerned; in fact, nothing the government does ever will ever mean squat until the recognition of Palestinian rights becomes an equal precondition for the resumption and advancement of peace, negotiations.....

RAFAH TODAY
GAZA UNDER SIEGE15 September 06
Rafah and it's the early morning here, or to be more accurate, 2 o'clock in the morning, I was wandering what an Israeli F16's pilot is doing at this moment, hovering over the sky of Gaza and making all these scary sonic bombs. Ten minutes later, the same F16s bombed a house at Al Barazil neighborhood in Rafah, which is close to the borderline. Of course, I was unable to sleep, as ambulances started moving around. They expected something to happen, but nothing happened. The house was empty and the Israeli F16 bombed it in a strike that woke people up the entire night.
