March & April 1999 Guest List


My country men and women, Do not forget,please,our beloved Palestine. Keep always in mind that it is the country of your fathers and forefathers;tell your children and grand-grandchildren about this,tell them the whole story. Teach them Arabic. Teach them their originality. Tell them that Palestine is ours; it has always been and it will allways be until youm-el-quiyameh. God bless you all and our Palestine.

Hi, I need to find out the whereabouts of one of your former mayors. He was very good friends with my mother, and he studiedat University in the USA around 1965, I think at Drew, or American College. I think his name is Sharif, but I'm not positive. Anyway, I'm coming to Ramallah and would like to locate him. If anyone has any info please E-mail me :danarnisrael@yahoo.com Thank you

I'm just writing to see if anyone knows anything about Project Hope for this summer- I haven't heard much about plans for this year and after hearing about it from the youth who participated in the past, I was hoping to participate this summer. If you have any information at all, please email me and let me know. Thanks!

Hey everyone! We would like to let u guys know about what's going on in Houston.We're a dabka troupe that's been organized here in Houston for about a year and a half now.We felt that since our families moved out of Palestine, we have lost touch with parts of our heritage. God blessed our family with great skills in the art of performing dabka so we decided not to put our traditions to waste -- so re-uniting our Homeland's traditions with the people who have been away from their homeland for so long -- we are Zahrat Al Mada'en Folkloric Dance Troupe. We've had many performances here in Houston and in Ramallah. The Troupe members are: Salwa Abdallah, Ahmad Abdallah, Mohammad Abdallah, Tarik Hassan, Salem Salem, Wissam Salem, Ra'ed Salem, Akram Salem, Kareem Salem, Samer Salem, Jadala Hamad, Jamila Hamad, Heba Ahmad, Aseel Saqer, and Suha Ahmad. You may have seen some of us performing back home in Ramallah as the dance troupe "Al-Asayel" or formerly here in Houston as "Nashamit Palestine" . Check out the website..if you've been to the Palestinian International Festival or any other festival in Ramallah and Birzeit...then some of these pictures may look familiar to you. We hope that you enjoy this website and we definetly hope that everyone will appreciate our efforts in re-uniting the Palestinian people with a part of their heritage. Thanks. Salwa A. Zahrat El Mada'en Folkloric Dance Troupe P.S. We are not the group that performed in the Ramallah Convention in Houston '98

I am seeking a listing of Americans who live in Ramallah or in other parts of Palestine, who have real estate, business or other holdings in the US. We are veteran US tax accountants who can offer tax advice and services to this population. Can anyone help? Best wishes and thanks.

Hey Everybody... I have a few suggestions to incorporate the youth into our future conventions. The conventions can be fun on the whole, but I find that the youth are not as involved in significant causes as they could be. There should be seminars on how we can all get politically active as an Arab organization. The Ramallah Federation can be a very strong power to reckon with. First, let's use AIPAC as a model and learn how to get politically active in out own lobby. Our youth need to be encouraged on how to run for government, fundraise for cadidates that support our cause, and how to get grass roots support for anything from U.N. resolutions that support us to Congress members who recognize the need for a Palestinian state. Money should be spent on professors and professionals who could hold seminars that teach how to get involved in the political process. Time should be balanced between fun and education, and who knows, the education part could be just as fun!
