Hi everyone, Just wanted to share some good news with you
all. I have been awarded a teaching fellowship at the American
University in Cairo beginning in the Fall term. If any of you
have relatives attending AUC or live in the area tell them that
AUC has a Palestinian English "fellow". I am hoping to
do as much as I can in raising awareness about the injustices/
apartheid we Palestinians are suffering through. Any profs or
others with suggestions please email me! Thanks!

Hello from Texas! It is so great to find such an energetic
group of Palestinians. I am also a Palestinian with parents and
ancestors from Haifa. I would love to attend the upcoming
convention in San Francisco but was wondering if people who are
not originally from Ramallah are invited. Thanks for letting me
know! God bless all of you.

Hello and Marhaba to all Arabs everywhere in the US and
around the world. We need to do a lot more in terms of lobbying
our state representatives to make sure that the US stops aid to
Israel as well as to pursue International War Crimes proceedings
against the infamous killer Ariel Sharon. Much has been done
against Milosevic (a longtime Arab ally and arms supplier),
however the world (and especially the USA and UK) has done
nothing when it comes to Zionist murderers such as Sharon. Please
send emails and make phone calls to your state reps just as the
Jews do everyday to impose their views and beliefs. We will
definitely win on the battlefield in occupied Palestine and we
will win the lobbying game too! The PA may also want to consider
setting up a arms fund so that Palestinians and Arabs living
abroad can donate money to the PA to purchase more weapons to
defend themselves. This is exactly how the Israeli army was
created in 1947-48. We can definitely raise hundreds of millions
of dollars per year that will go to the heroes who are fighting
Israel on the frontlines everyday. This will guarantee victory
for the Arabs as opposed to stupid and useless Arab summits that
are arranged by western-installed puppets and slaves. LONG LIVE
Palestine and LONG LIVE all Palestinians and fellow Arabs who put
their lifes on the line everyday fighting for justice and
freedom!!

Hi There! I just stumbled on this sight. My husband's
family is from Ramallah. My heart breaks for all the violence
going on. I learned along time ago that the media is one sided. I
watched a family video of a family wedding in Ramallah, I asked
Yumma what the flashes were in the backround of the video. She
said" they are bombs honey" My prayers are with all the
reletives back there (There are many) Yumma tells my stories of
what it was like back there. I enjoy them so much. She hasnt been
back since coming to America, but still has many relatives there.
Blessings and greetings to my family in Cleveland

We as Arabs and Palestinian should be proud of our
accomplishments in the past few weeks. We united together and
were able to overcome a Jewish national drive to drop down the
ranking of the Palestinian Boy picture in the MSNBC survey. I
think we sent a clear message that we could be just as strong and
can defeat what in most people's mind is an indestructible Jewish
lobby. The most effective way we can fight for our homeland is
through our unity together as Arabs and Palestinians. Way to Go.

Have I missed this website before? I guess so. Lovely. My
daughter lives in Ramallah and was married there last September
to a Christian Arab in a beautiful ceremony. Of course, this was
right before all the conflict began. I for one know that the
Palestinians are a wonderful people. I met so many of them. At
the wedding (400), at restaurants, in your local clubs, and while
out shopping. The world IS WATCHING, and you are gaining ground.
Hopefully, in a short time intervention will come by way of the
UN. Remember, Israelies were like an abused child from a home
where it was beaten, murdered, raped, and thrown out. Now, as the
abused child often grows up to be, it (Israel) is now the abuser.
They learned their lesson well at the hands of Hitler. They must
over come these past lessons or they will indeed perish for --
"what goes around, comes around."

Sorry Ladies and Gentlemen, but we can no longer go on to
nbc to vote for our favorite picture. It seems as if people that
have already voted once, found a way to vote hundreds and
thousands of times for the pic that they wanted to win. NBC
decided to sop the voting. They said they will do it again next
year. Now the picture will never be seen.

ACTION ALERT!!!! Let's show the yahood what we're made of!
There is a photo contest at MSNBC going on where you vote for the
best picture of the year--one of the pictures is of Mohammad Al
Durra, the boy and the father who died in each others arms from
Israeli gunfire. Well, that picture was number one until the Jews
found out, and now their sending out a campaign to have every jew
vote for dumb pictures of dogs and cats instead!!!! Now the
Mohammad picture is in 4th place. So, we have to act fast--the
link to vote is below--forward it to everyone you know and tell
them to vote! Send it to friends, cousins, uncles, aunts,
brothers, sisters....EVERYONE! LETS SHOW THEM WHAT WE"RE
MADE OF!!!! There are a ton more Arabs in the world than Jews, so
let's take advantage that we're the majority. Thank you so much
in advance, I know we can prove a huge point by bringing this
picture back to number one.

Urgent Appeal from Birzeit University, Palestine LET OUR
PEOPLE LIVE! March 10th, 2001 We, faculty and staff at Birzeit
University, appeal to our colleagues and friends around the world
to help us in delivering our simple but urgent message -- let our
people live! We will be delivering this message in peaceful
marches of protest to the Israeli soldiers and tanks that
currently prevent us from reaching our University by the only
road that allows accessibility and that has been recently
blocked. The suffering of Palestinians in surrounding villages
who are cut off from their livelihoods, health care, schools and
markets is also acute. So far protests have only been met with
bullets and tear gas. We need your help to bring our message to
the world. The wave of violence against the Palestinian
population has reached unprecedented proportions. The Israeli
army's policy of siege through blocking roads and digging
trenches around towns and villages has been escalating, making it
practically impossible to meet people's very basic needs. This
policy has now reached Birzeit University, preventing us and our
students from reaching campus to continue our classes, labs and
academic life. On 7 March 2001 in the dead of night, the Israeli
army destroyed portions of the only road linking the University
to Ramallah, gouging out trenches and destroying about 400 meters
of asphalt. This damage to the only road linking Ramallah City to
Birzeit village and 33 other villages with a population of about
65000 has resulted in the total disruption of daily life. To
date, cars, ambulances and provisions are not able to cross to
and from Birzeit and surrounding villages. Most Palestinian
populated areas have already been hermetically sealed,
disregarding all standards of dealing with civilians and
contravening international law, particularly the Fourth Geneva
Convention. These measures are, in the full sense of the term,
war crimes. With these actions, it becomes clear that such
policies are part of a long term strategy that Israel is pursuing
in both the Gaza Strip and the West Bank. This strategy has been
adopted by successive Israeli Governments, both of Barak and
Sharon, in order to subjugate the entire population, and will
them to accept the unacceptable. We call on you to ACT NOW: 1.
Call for an immediate end to the closure policies. 2. Call for
the international protection of the Palestinian population. 3.
Demand that Israel abide by international law. Call the nearest
Israeli Embassy in your area, or send your protests to the
Israeli Government on these email addresses. Benjamin Beneliazer,
Israeli Minister of Defense at sar@mod.gov.il and Shimon Peres,
Israeli Foreign Minister at sar@mofa.gov.il For further follow

Hello all :) I have been seriously considering developing
youth projects in Palestine, specifically bringing Palestinian
Youth back to Palestine for visits, tours, projects -a non-profit
awareness and community service type project. I went to Palestine
with the Ramallah Club back in 1993, at that time I was the
youngest person on the trip. I am aware of Jewish programs, like
"Birthright" (gag!), that bring american jews to our
homeland to help these zionists fall in love with the land they
stole from our families so that might continue to send money and
lobby in the u.s. congress. anyhow i keep thinking that we need
to organize and do something like that. i am currently living in
cairo, egypt teaching english. i was going to teach in palestine
but it seemed to risky when i was there back in september and
october, both my aunt and her son's homes were burnt down. i
strongly feel WE AS YOUNG AND OLD PALESTINIANS NEED TO ORGANIZE
TO MAKE AN IMPACT. BACK HOME THEY NEED OUR HELP, THERE ARE SO
MANY OBSTACLES THAT OUR FAMILIES FACE EACH DAY LACK OF CLEAN
WATER, OBSTACLES IN COMPLETING THEIR EDUCATION, VIOLENCE ...
please email me so that we can brainstorm on these issues. I am
ready to work towards some kind of projects that strengthen and
help Palestine and all of us Palestinians. I hope to meet and
brainstorm with some like minded Palestinians. Please! we cant
just sit back and watch the IDF strip us of our heritage and
homeland. rana (currently in cairo)

his father's arms.. Our picture is in the 5th place as of today
and would like it to be #1....The #1 picture is of a dog...We
think it's ridiculous. CNN reprted that Isrealis are casting
their votes for that dog so that the palestinian picture doesn't
make #1.... Please help and send this to any one who can take a
minute out of their time so that the kid's death will always be
remembered.. PLEASE GUYS SEND THIS TO ANYONE WHO WOULD TAKE A
MINUTE OUT OF THEIR TIME TO CAST THEIR VOTES SO OUR VOICES CAN BE

(some of you should take this advice). The only thing I will say
is that I agree with Mike Mousa that the death of Dale Earndhart
was a great loss to NASCAR. Goodbye and God Bless.

I just want to reiterate the March 1st entry about MSNBC.
This is a prime example of how we can show our support. When I
went to the link and voted for "A Death In Gaza", the
results at the time put this picture in 6th place out of 49
pictures! Nothing against dogs or anything, but the top 3
pictures are pictures of dogs. I think the picture of poor
Muhammad says alot more. Just as the Israeli Consulate solicited
support against the picture, let's show our support for the
picture and the message it tells the world. PLEASE

If I may - I want to say I am proud to be my parents
daughter. while others are wondering what their roots are. I am
100% descendent of Ramallah. and for that I am proud. my parents
were strict but also they were smart. because they were not
strict in a harsh way. they were firm. Since I was a child my
father told me I was going to college. and I learned to accept
that as a fact. this taught me that he valued education. when I
had a few in instances of "viewers" come to the house,
he was polite and then when they would call back he would tell
them that he was in no hurry for me to get married. He was a
wonderful father and so was my mother. they were very tactful
with me. I never dated in high school nor did I go to a prom or
homecoming. Conveniently we were going to be out of town that
weekend. looking back they were pretty smart. I only wish I could
be as smart as they were. they would say in arabic "we will
see" or "if God wills it" now I say it to my kids.
If you like this I will get back with you again.

Dear fellow Palestinians all over the world, in the media
war, where public opinion is concerned, we are still lacking
moral support for our struggle from the side of the people in
countries of the West. Even the more leftist groups within these
countries are seriously lacking in speaking out for our cause,
and supporting the Intifadah. This is a result of serious media
manipulation by our enemies. To help counteract these influences,
a Rap Song has been made for the Intifadah, that can be heard
on-line (streaming mp3) or downloaded for free. The purpose is to
spread this message, and let it be heard ... like a pamphlet but
in the form of a rap. By clicking the link below, you can read
the lyrics while listening to the song, or download it to help
spreading it around the world.

Palestinians and their supporters all over the world have to jump
in to support the Intifadah, by any means. No effort should be
wasted. Please help spread the word: the Intifadah will continue
until victory! Doc Jazz

place I would have done the samething.Regardless of whatever
anyone said or thought.More power to her.Im doing a survey on
hate crimes and Id like to know what you guys think of the
Matthew Shepard murder or the Teena Brandon rape and murder.Do

should suffer the way they both did.Ya know a hate crime occurs
every hour of everyday.Take a stand against it.If you got any
comments or questions feel free to ask.For more info on taking a

The message below is only an example of the messages being
put out. The picture of "A Death in Gaza" has fallen
from 1st to 2nd to 6th place in a poll on the MSNBC site. Please
vote and forward the below link to everyone. If "A Death in
Gaza" wins, the possible publicity would give us yet another
opportunity by which to focus America's attention on Israeli
brutality. http://www.msnbc.com/modules/surveys/twip/yip_2000_readers_.asp#survey
Also included below is an email directly quoting an official from
the Office of the Israeli Consulate as an illustration of the
sort of Yahoodi propaganda we are trying to combat. From the
Israeli Consulate Call for Action Dear Friends: Many of you have
expressed interest in more actively supporting Israel, and we
have tried to underscore to you the importance of showing
America, Israel, and the world that you stand with us against
Muslim extremism and media bias. Below is a perfect and easy
opportunity to demonstrate your support. MSNBC is running a
contest for photo of the year; among the contenders is the
infamous photo of 12-year old Muhammad Durra. To us, this
photographs epitomizes everything tragic about the present
violence: children led into the crossfire by their own parents
for publicity purposes. To much of the rest of the world, thanks
to media misinformation and propaganda, it represents something
far different. The Muslim and Arab community has whipped up an
onslaught of support for this photo; we urge you to match and
exceed their activism and organization by making certain that it
does not win. Go to the website below, vote for one of the other
photos, and forward the message to everyone on your mailing list.
These, the small battles, can make a tremendous difference for
public opinion here in America and for morale back home in
Israel. We know you will not let this call go unheeded. "All
of Israel is responsible each for the other." Thank you for
your help. Meirav Eilon Shahar Consul for Communications and
Public Affairs Consulate General of Israel in Los Angeles
