	Indpendence Under Occupation - Palestine Monitor (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		"Palestine, the Land of the three monotheistic faiths, is where the Palestinian Arab people were born, on which they grew, developed and excelled.
		It is an ironic and sad event yet people will, as accustomed, not allow the occupation to dictate their lives and will symbolically challenge the occupier by remembering their declaration of independence.
		Palestinians have clear goals and their will is unbreakable, yet the occupation is expanding, stealing land and now building a segregation colonization wall which will give Israel control over more than half the Palestinian land (22% of historical Palestine).

	Palestine
		Its stated objectives are to end the Israeli occupation of Palestine, to negotiate an independent Palestinian state and to ensure Israeli security.
		This allows Israel to claim that "the occupation" is over, even while claiming permanent control of huge settlement blocs throughout the West Bank and Gaza, and maintaining control of all of Jerusalem as Israel's permanent capital.
		If the defenders of Israel's occupation in the Bush administration, now largely unchallenged, continue to have their way, that may be exactly where this road map leads.

	Palestine Center - Declaration of Independenceo
		Occupation, massacres and dispersion achieved no gain in the unabated Palestinian consciousness of self and political identity, as Palestinians went forward with their destiny, undeterred and unbowed.
		The State of Palestine is an Arab state, an integral and indivisible part of the Arab nation, at one with that nation in heritage and civilization, with it also in its aspiration for liberation, progress, democracy and unity.
		The State of Palestine affirms its obligation to abide by the Charter of the League of Arab States, whereby the coordination of the Arab states with each other shall be strengthened.

	The occupation of Iraq, Palestine and the antiwar movement
		Nevertheless, the occupation of Iraq continues, with no end in sight--since the stated reasons for the war were simply pretexts to establish the occupation.
		In Palestine, the occupation is now taking the shape of the systematic exclusion of Palestinian communities through "security walls" while illegal Israeli settlements continue to be built in the Occupied Territories.
		We cannot allow the issue of the end of the occupation of Palestine to be postponed yet again; neither can we permit ultimatums and organizational rivalries to weaken the movement at a time when the challenges before us are so great.

		The occupation also transformed Palestinian civilians into a pool of cheap labor for Israel and within a few years, a large segment of the Palestinian population became dependent on Israel for employment, mainly in menial labor and construction.
		Lastly, the Israeli occupation is unique because it effectively transformed the situation in the Occupied Palestinian Territory from one of occupation to one of actual colonization of the Palestinian land and denied the legitimate national rights of a whole people at the end of the 20
		This occupation must end and the Palestinian people must be allowed to realize their inalienable rights, including the right to establish their own state, so that peace can be achieved on the basis of co-existence and international legalities.

	The Zionist Occupation of Palestine: Old Facts, Cold Realities
		Palestine is a small and very poor country, about the size of your state of Vermont.
		The Jewish "religious claim" to Palestine is as absurd as the "historic claim." The Holy Places, sacred to three great religions, must be open to all, the monopoly of none.
		This myth is one of the greatest propaganda triumphs of the Jewish Agency for Palestine, the organization which promotes with fanatic zeal the emigration to Palestine.

	Palestine-Net: Geography of Palestine
		Palestine, currently under occupation, is located on the East coast of the Miditerannean Sea, West of Jordan and to the south of Lebanon.
		The base is fertile and the rest, with its apex near the town of Aqaba, is poor with scattered patches of regions suitable for cultivation.
		Bi'r as-Sab' (renamed Beersheba by the occupation) is the main town in that region.[2]

	Lee Sustar: Palestine and the Antiwar Movement* (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		Founded by mainly European Jewish settlers, known as Zionists, in British-controlled Palestine in 1948, Israel was based on the expulsion of 750,000 Palestinians through killing and terror, including massacres of entire villages.
		Once Israel finally began negotiations with the Palestine Liberation Organization in the 1990s, the U.S. claimed the role of "honest broker" in the 1993 Oslo Accords that were supposed to create a separate Palestinian state.
		Thus the similarity of tactics used in occupations in Iraq and Palestine: mass detention of suspects, midnight raids, demolition of houses of suspected resisters, the use of air power and tanks in residential areas, torturing prisoners and more.

	Iraq/Palestine - End the Occupation!
		This brutal occupation is oppressive and repressive, involving roadblocks, heavy handed treatment and the shooting of suspects.
		But we argue that, if the struggle against the occupation is to lead genuine national liberation, rather than ethnic and religious conflict, or even a new ‘home-grown’ dictator, it should be based on organisations of the working class and the poor that can unite across religious and ethnic divides.
		The long-standing and brutal Israeli occupation of Palestine has not been defeated either by the rotten compromises of Arafat or the divisive tactics of Hamas and Jihad.

	Occupation, Patriarchy, and the Palestinian Women's Movement
		Generally speaking, the Israeli occupation of Palestine is not recognized internationally as an important factor in the ongoing existence of patriarchy in Palestinian society.
		However, numerous studies have shown that the ongoing Israeli occupation is a key factor in the maintenance of patriarchy in Palestinian society.
		Lastly, Palestinian women living under occupation have the responsibility of fighting for recognition of the link between patriarchy and occupation, and to resist the temptation of international funding that depoliticizes their agendas.

	End the illegal occupation of Palestine
		It bans indiscriminate use of force against civilians, wanton destruction of property, torture, collective punishment, the annexation of occupied territory, and the establishment of settlements or colonies on occupied land.
		The International Committee of the Red Cross and the UN have consistently maintained that the convention applies fully to the occupied territories and that the Palestinians are a protected population under its terms.
		As part of the Decade to Overcome Violence, launched in Potsdam in February 2001, the WCC is calling on churches this year to focus on ending the illegal occupation of Palestine and promoting a comprehensive peace, based on justice and security for all the peoples of the Middle East.

	End the Occupation of Palestine Petition
		The domination of one people by another, as is the case of the Israeli occupation of the West Bank, Gaza strip, and East Jerusalem, is an affront to all humanity.
		We call for Israel to acknowledge its responsibility for the dispossession of Palestinian families and people, and to recognise the right of all Palestinian refugees to return to their homeland and to be compensated.
		The End the Occupation of Palestine Petition to Prime Minister Ariel Sharon, Chairman Yasser Arafat, President George Bush, United Nations Secretary-General Kofi Annan and Human Rights Commissioner Mary Robinson was created by and written by Megan Marsee, International Women's University.

	From Iraq to Palestine: No to occupation!
		But the similarities between the U.S. occupation of Iraq and the Israeli occupation of Palestine don’t end there.
		As a result, the U.S. is trying to hold off elections in Iraq, while it pushes for elections in Afghanistan, despite warnings that this could spark a civil war and escalation of the violence between dueling warlords.
		From Iraq to Afghanistan to Palestine, the only solution is an immediate withdrawal of U.S. arms, soldiers and military bases--and self-determination for the people whose lands have been taken from them.

	Green Left - PALESTINE: Israel's illegal occupation (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		Israeli soldiers enforcing the illegal occupation of Palestinian land can cause the deaths of babies and other innocents, or kill them outright, and words such as murder and terrorism are almost never used.
		These illegal, provocative enclaves, and their surrounding security areas, control almost 42% of occupied Palestine — a fact that, on its own, makes a mockery of the popular myth that two years ago the Israelis made a “generous” offer to return 90% of the Occupied Territories, which the Palestinian Authority rejected.
		But it was Israel's flouting of UN resolutions on Palestine that was the spectre in the General Assembly.

		We were in Ramallah to experience and document the realities of life under foreign occupation, but as the city was invaded on the morning after our arrival, we also assisted in humanitarian relief efforts in the area.
		During our visit we were fired on in marked ambulances carrying the sick and injured, our colleagues were physically abused, food and medical supplies were thrown into the street, and ambulance drivers were consistently arrested and prevented from doing their work.

	OnePalestine.org: The New England Committee To Defend Palestine
		On Sunday, September 17 The New England Committee to Defend Palestine and the Boston chapter of the Jericho Movement held an event in Boston to raise funds for Palestinian political prisoners.
		The opening talk was from Ahmad Kawash, a Palestinian refugee from Miamia camp in Lebanon, who spoke of the human effect of imprisonment on prisoners and their families in Palestine, and the prisoner status of the majority of Palestinians, whether enclosed by the Wall in the West Bank, or living in camps as refugees.
		It is not possible any more to claim to be on the side of the people of Palestine and to condone the theft of 78% of their land, or pretend that there can be a meaningful peace between the colonists and the colonized.

		However, Israeli researchers expressed doubts over the declared figure, urging their occupation government to reveal the truth as they estimated Israeli fatalities to be more than 1,300.
		The IOF killed thousands of Palestinian people, wounded tens of thousands others and demolished thousands of Palestinian homes during the Aqsa intifada only as their atrocities in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank were continuing till now and on daily basis.
		The Israeli occupation government has been active in bringing in tens of thousands of Jews from all over the world, including Russia, Eastern Europe, Africa and the two Americas to settle them in Palestine.

	PALESTINE PAPERS - A Stone's Throw from Jabaliya
		Partly because Jabaliya symbolizes the plight of a people who have lived under military occupation for more than 20 years, a people who are only now being accorded a global acknowledgement of their own right to self-determination.
		Partly because this town and refugee camp (the town has 50,000 people, the camp an additional15,000) is consistently under curfew, with its people unable to leave their homes even to obtain emergency medical care from the one United Nations Works and Relief Agency (UNWRA) clinic which serves them.
		Many workers commute several hours every day into Israel (it is a truism in the Territories that it takes an Arab three times as long as it takes Jewish Israelis to go anywhere, due to harrassment at checkpoints) to work for sub-standard wages at construction jobs, waiter's jobs, and jobs Israelis will not do.

	Palestine, Yes! Iraq Occupation, No!
		Some sectors in the anti-war movement objected to and are organizing against these demands, insisting that Palestine be dropped from the call for March 20 (as these same sectors have often demanded), and that internationalizing the occupation of Iraq should remain a viable option.
		We do not accept delinking the struggle of the Palestinian people from the anti-war movement, and regard the struggle in Palestine, as it is viewed worldwide, to be central to any peace and justice mobilization.
		We regard the positions that the "colonial occupation of Iraq must be internationalized", or that ending the occupation must be conducted over a period of time until the "Iraqis are able to secure their democracy", as implicitly colonial and racist.

		After illegally depriving the people of Palestine from their right to live peacefully on their full land by giving most of it to the zionist Israelis in 1947-8, the international community again looked away as Israel took over the rest of Palestine and Jerusalem in 1967.
		From 1967 on powerful forces within Israel have argued for the permanent retention of the territories: this was not the `temporary' occupation recognized by international law.
		Occupation has been good business, earning Israel and annual net income of $50,000,000 from the West Bank before the uprising began.

	Smooth Stone: British Occupation of Palestine
		Smooth Stone's goal is to educate the world in order to place intense pressure upon the entity calling itself "Palestine" to respect the human rights of the Israeli people.
		Nor was there ever a serious Arab-Palestinian national movement, until 1964, which was three years before the Arabs of "Palestine" lost the West Bank [Judea and Samaria] and Gaza as a result of attacking Israel during the 1967 Six-Day War (which the Arabs started).
		In July of 1937, the Peel Commission issued a report which said that all the Jews should be confined to a tiny state that would include a sliver of land along the Mediterranean coast and a small piece in the north abutting the west side of the Lake Kineret ("Sea of Galilee").

		In the panel discussion, Higher Education in Palestine and the Defense of Academic Freedom, President Deeb emphasized that the only means to economic security for Palestinians is through education because the Intifada had made all jobs difficult or impossible, even the most basic such as farming.
		Orthodox Jews are second class citizens, pseudo-Jews third, the Druze forth, the Palestine Arab Israeli 5th class citizens, the Bedouins 6th, East Jerusalem and Golan Heights residents 7th, Palestinians in the West Bank 8th, Gaza residents 9th, and labor migrants 10th on the so-called Israeli scale of citizenship, according to Yiftachel.
		Peace in Israel/Palestine must start with an end to the occupation and a livable situation for the two peoples on the same land, because their fate is to be irrevocably bound together.

		Growing up in a conservative, military, Roman Catholic family, Quinn, a licensed clinical social worker for the Arlington County School District, was intrigued by the Palestinian struggle for freedom when he watched Palestinians use shoes to expel Israeli soldiers from the Al-Aqsa compound.
		He was asked by the Palestine Children's Relief Fund (PCRF), a U.S.-based medical relief organization, to provide clinical consultation for the PCRF staff in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank.
		"It is no exaggeration to say that the Israeli occupation is responsible for the injuries, illness, deaths, and miseries of thousands of Palestinian children," Quinn said.
