Personally, I think the Jewish people should embrace every bit of UNWRA. The concept is pretty sweet. A never-ending, perpetual, eternal right to re-settle in your historical homeland (even if you are colonial invaders) and endless annual funds in the meantime? Where can the Jewish people sign up for THAT?! Oh wait, it doesn't apply to Jews. Because....Jews.
 



Occupation Forces Kill Prisoner Mohammad al Rimawi in Morning Raid

“At around 4 in the morning, Israeli special forces entered the house. Following their arrival, a larger number of regular soldiers arrived as back up. After removing the door to the house, the soldiers attacked the individual’s mother and brought the members of the family into one part of the house. This included the mother, the father and three sons. The soldiers took Mohammad into a separate room, where he was beaten into an unconscious state. He was taken away from the house while in such a state, and taken to an unknown location. After two hours, his family was informed of their son’s death.”

Doomed Palestinian village turns to Europe as last hope

KHAN AL-AHMAR, West Bank (AP) — For the anxious Palestinian residents of Khan al-Ahmar, there’s little left to do but wait.

After the West Bank hamlet lost its last legal protection against demolition late last week, Israeli forces could swoop in any day now to tear down the desert community’s few dozen shacks and an Italian-funded schoolhouse made from recycled tires.

Some hold out hope that Israel might be deterred by an inevitable international outcry over razing the community. Major European countries have warned that flattening Khan al-Ahmar poses a grave threat to the already fading prospects of a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

Israel has portrayed the battle over Khan al-Ahmar as a mere zoning dispute. Critics of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s policies say the village has become a symbol for what they describe as an ongoing displacement of Palestinians to make room for Israeli settlements.

With demolition now looming, dozens of activists, including foreigners, have been spending nights in Khan al-Ahmar to show support. They sleep on mattresses spread out under green tarp covering the front yard of the Italian-funded school.

The 180 residents of Khan al-Ahmar are members of the Jahalin Bedouin tribe that has lived in the area since being expelled from the southern Negev Desert after Israel’s establishment in 1948. The United Nations granted them refugee status.

Doomed Palestinian village turns to Europe as last hope
 
PEN International strongly condemns the decision of the Nazareth Magistrate's Court to convict Palestinian poet Dareen Tatour of ‘support for a terrorist organization’ and ‘incitement to violence’. The conviction is mainly related to a YouTube video in which she recites one of her poems entitled, ‘Qawim ya sha’abi, qawimhum (Resist, my people, resist them).’

PEN International President Jennifer Clement, who met Dareen Tatour at her home in Nazareth last year, said:

“Dareen Tatour has been convicted for doing what writers do every day – we use our words to peacefully challenge injustice. I was incredibly honoured to meet Dareen at her home last year and PEN will continue to call for justice in this case.”

I think it’s fair, The Palestinians lost their “ legal protection?” The Israelis lost their LEGAL rights to E, Jerusalem after 1948. :boo_hoo14:
 
Various muhammuds were live at the Tire Burning Riots.



Do these SAVAGES really believe that Israel will let them inside their borders? The Narrator clearly states they are opposing Israel’s right to their “ ancestral lands” which of course means Israel itself. “ Right of Return” according to the U.N. has one stipulation; Live in PEACE with your neighbors. For that reason alone, Israel is not bound by “ International Law”

I will say that the intolerance that moslems hold for themselves and others is appalling to those of us in the West after all we've been through trying to move forward in securing freedom and equality for all members of our societies. But freedom in Islam is a mockery. There are rarely elected leaders. There is the sharia law as interpreted by the ulema, imams, and sheikhs. Above them is the Khalifah (Caliph) who is "God's shadow" on Earth, ruling over all Moslems. There is no plurality. There is the unyielding insistence that all mankind accept Islam's supremacy. There isn't even the slightest pretense of that one, true hallmark of political freedom: the ability to vote the leader out of office. Muhammud is the eternal leader, and an unelected one at that. This is Islam's greatest weakness and it is also what dooms it to retrogression.

Right?! The HORROR that Israel should take these poor refugees and give them ownership of property, building materials, a cash settlement, and access to electricity, water, sewage and solid waste management, medical care, a school. The absolute HORROR!

Btw, did you know that the remaining residents themselves have said they are being threatened by the PA if they talk about moving?
 
Resistance at 70: the future of the Palestinian national movement



Going back to 1948 before Israel was recognized by the International Community, when the W. Bank. E. Jerusalem and Gaza were considered part of Jordan and Egypt and later on FORMALLY annexed. Yet we are supposed to believe they accepted Israel’s right to exist and the “ 67 Borders?” :thankusmile:
 
Arab-Moslem failure and incompetence at 70.




Another decade - another useless dictator.
