I agree. Lipush is a true daughter of Abraham.The greatest respect: these are some of the people to light the torches on Israel's upcoming independence day.

What a beautiful tradition to honor those who helped others dedicated to love & peace.
Man you worship Israel, shame, worship God and him alone. When you see injustice bring it to attention of others, do not worship the ones inflicting injustice. I have my doubts if your a Christian, to applaud their behavior is awful.
Defining Nakba
Main articles: 1948 Palestinian exodus and Palestinian refugee
During the 1948 Palestine War, an estimated 700,000 Palestinians fled or were expelled, and hundreds of Palestinian towns and villages were depopulated and destroyed.[2][3]
Palestinian refugees in 1948
These refugees and their descendants number several million people today, divided between Jordan (2 million), Lebanon (427,057), Syria (477,700), the West Bank(788,108) and the Gaza Strip (1.1 million), with at least another quarter of a million internally displaced Palestinians in Israel.[4] The displacement, dispossession and dispersal of the Palestinian people is known to them as an-Nakba, meaning "catastrophe" or "disaster”.
