Palestinian people - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The Palestinian Central Bureau of Statistics announced on October 20, 2004 that the number of Palestinians worldwide at the end of 2003 is 9.6 million, an increase of 800,000 since 2001. The Arab summit meeting in Rabat, Morocco in October 1974 stated that the PLO is the "sole legitimate representation of the Palestinian people" (i.e., of Palestinian Arabs). Palestinian citizens of Israel have political representation in the Knesset (Israeli parliament). en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Palestinian   (2517 words)

Palestinian exodus - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The 'Arab leaders' endorsement of the refugee flight' was the official line taken by the governments of Israel and mainstream Israeli Historians, assigning the main responsibility for the exodus to calls made by local and foreign Arab leaders. Before the Arab invasion, it explains the exodus as a result of the crumbling Arab social structure, and after the invasion as a result of actions by the Israeli army during the campaign in the Galilee and Negev. He argued that there was an omnipresent understanding during the war that as many Palestinian Arabs as possible had to be transferred out of the Jewish state, and that that understanding stood behind many of the expulsions that the commanders on the field carried out. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Palestinian_exodus   (7419 words)

Palestinian Arabs A remarkable results was that the Palestinian people, after one year of the Intifada, staunchly support of its continuation and 53% of those surveyed said they are optimistic or very optimistic that it will achieve its goals. The majority of Palestinians, 58.3%, believe that the failure of Camp David negotiations was due to the Jerusalem issue, 19.6% - that it was due to the Jewish settlements issue, and 15.7% - that it was due to the refugee issue. Half the Palestinians, 50%, considered the role and behavior of the Israeli peace camp as bad, 36% said it is unacceptable. www.westerndefense.org /articles/PalestinianArabs/november01.htm   (1113 words)

Palestinians - The Peace Encyclopedia Palestinians are Arabs, indistinguishable from Jordanians (another recent invention), Syrians, Lebanese, Iraqis, etc. Keep in mind that the Arabs control 99.9 percent of the Middle East lands. Palestinian Arab nationalism is largely a post-World War I phenomenon that did not become a significant political movement until after the 1967 Six-Day War and Israel's capture of the West Bank. By adopting the name 'Palestinians' the Arabs succeeded in converting the Arab-Israeli conflict from a war of annihilation against the Jewish population to a struggle of dispossessed natives against colonialist invaders. peace.heebz.com /palestinians.html   (4272 words)

Right of return - Palestinian Arabs to Israel Christian Century - Find Articles While the right of Palestinian refugees to return to their homes remained firmly anchored in international law (such as the Universal Declaration of Human Rights) and resolutions (in particular, United Nations General Assembly Resolution 194), the issue was on the margins of the political front. Palestinian political analyst Salim Tamari warned in 1996 that the refugee issue could be "marginalized and neglected" only so long; eventually it would become an "explosive and destabilizing issue" in relations between Palestinians and Israelis and between Palestinian refugees and Palestinian political leaders. Palestinian refugees, in the Middle East and in the West, have organized to defend the fight of return. www.findarticles.com /p/articles/mi_m1058/is_14_118/ai_74439259   (881 words)

Introduction & Brief History of Palestine Aided by Arabs, the British captured Palestine from the Ottomans in the winter of 1917 and 1918. Immigration rose sharply after the installation of the Nazi regime in Germany in 1933, and fear of Jewish domination was the principal cause of an Arab revolt (1936-1939). In 1993, after decades of conflict between Palestinians and Israelis, their leaders agreed to the signing of a peace accord calling for a transitional period not exceeding five years of Palestinian interim self-government in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank. www.middleeastnews.com /palestinianintro.html   (858 words)

'Palestinian' Arabs' vicious tactics of HUMAN SHIELDS Palestinian Authority TV and newspapers also have come under fire, accused of encouraging children to throw stones and Molotov cocktails at armed Israeli troops. According to Baker, the Palestinians are well aware of the IDF's firing procedures: tear gas and water hoses against rock throwers, rubber bullets against firebomb throwers, and live fire against gunmen. She is scheduled to go to the Palestinian Authority on Friday, where she is slated to meet Arafat and will surely be flooded with numerous allegations of Israeli human rights violations. geocities.com /palestiniansarelies/HumanShields   (1754 words)

The Palestine Refugee Problem Palestinians point out that Zionists carried out a number of massacres and terrorist operations, notably in Deir Yassin, where Irgun and Lehi forces killed about 110 villagers, and that the Haganah had formulated Plan D, which, the Palestinian partisans claim, was a plan for expulsion of the Arabs from Palestine. Palestinian partisans point out that most of the Jews who left Arab countries did so willingly, and that in any case, it is not their responsibility, but that of the Arab states. However it is likely that Palestinian Arab population was increased significantly by immigration, and it is certain that many refugees are the children of Palestinians and foreigners. www.mideastweb.org /refugees1.htm   (6184 words)

Arab Palestinian Refugees Are Real Losers!   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30) The Arab "Palestinians" [back by the Arab World] remake history to serve their own interests, and their tales of woe and suffering are in reality intended to propagandize others into blaming Israel for all their problems. Arab countries (and even non-Arab Muslim countries) are keeping them focused on Israel and away from THEM because the Palestinian Arabs are trouble-makers and have nothing but murdering Jews and revolution on their minds. Arab countries must acknowledge and accept their defeat in their war against Israel and, as the losing side, should pay Israel reparations for the more than 50 years of devastation they have visited upon it. www.masada2000.org /pal-refugees.html   (3021 words)

Israel's Security Fence The Palestinian Arabs committed themselves in the Oslo peace process and in the 2003 Road Map to dismantle terrorist networks and confiscate illegal weapons. Palestinian Arabs say the barrier already has divided Palestinian land, forcing people to exploit gaps to work, buy supplies or visit family. Arab countries and others normally aligned with Palestinian Arab interests appeared before the ICJ to argue against the legality of the fence. www.palestinefacts.org /pf_current_security_fence.php   (1482 words)

Middle East Report 230:No More Tears: Benny Morris and the Road Back from Liberal Zionism, by Joel Beinin The document in Cohen’s hands analyzed the reasons for the flight of 240,000 Palestinian Arabs from areas which had been allocated to the Jewish state by the November 1947 UN partition plan and another 150,000 from the Jerusalem region and areas allocated to the Arab state. The Palestinian and Arab version argued that “transfer” was always an element of Zionist thought and that the war of 1948 provided the opportunity to implement the transfer plan. The Oslo era’s exclusion of issues that were on the Palestinian and Arab political agenda—Jerusalem and refugees—is structurally parallel to the historian’s exclusion of Arab sources of evidence. www.merip.org /mer/mer230/230_beinin.html   (4702 words)

The Palestinian Identity For the Arabs (And the Turks) the whole of the region lying between the Taurus Mountains and the confines of Egypt, and between the Mediterranean and the edge of the desert, was 'Syria' a term which had been in use since remote antiquity. Arab terror must be viewed completely outside of the context of the struggle of the Palestinian Arabs for self-determination. The Palestinian Arabs, manipulated and deceived by their leaders for several decades, must learn the unfortunate truth: they cannot legitimately lay claim to a single inch of Judea, Samaria or Gaza, nor any of Israel proper, since these territories, according to international law, were already allocated to the Jews in 1920. www.afsi.org /MEDIA/newsLinks/shockers/m100.htm   (2566 words)

The Origins of the Palestinian Arabs No "Palestinian Arab people" existed at the start of 1920, but, by December, it took shape in a form recognizably similar to today's. Until the late nineteenth century, residents living in the region between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean identified themselves primarily in terms of religion: Moslems felt far stronger bonds with remote co-religionists than with nearby Christians and Jews. Other identities - Syrian, Arab, and Moslem - continued to compete for decades afterward with the Palestinian one, but the latter has by now mostly swept the others aside and reigns nearly supreme. www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org /jsource/History/palarabs.html   (408 words)

Roger L. Simon: THINKING POSITIVELY ABOUT THE MIDDLE EAST...   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30) the Palestinians are, in my view, probably the brightest of all of the Arabs, the most hardworking, the most dedicated, the most deserving of a break, which they have not got as yet from their political leadership. The Palestinians who have figured out the Arab world are not their friends are people like Fayyad and Karsou, who represent the Pal middle class which is terrified to speak out just like the Iraqi middle-class was. To my understanding, the Palestinian middle class in Gaza and the West Bank is nearly non-existent, having been squeezed out by the terrorcrats and the impoverished masses. rogerlsimon.com /archives/00000234.htm   (1251 words)

GOP Bloggers :: Palestinian Arabs: Still a Terrorism-Infected Society Palestinian Prime Minister Ahmed Qureia told his Cabinet he was forming eight teams to coordinate the takeover of settlement land, including representatives of the militant Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad groups. Until the Palestinian Arabs genuinely renounce terrorism and eliminate the terrorist groups that operate freely among them, there should be no further aid to them or even recognition of their grievances. Then again, it should be no surprise since the Palestinian Authority itself receives money from the UN, EU and the US and then uses that money to finance vicious anti-Jewish hatred in official media, schools and mosques. www.gopbloggers.org /mt/archives/001859.html   (635 words)

HITLER AND THE PALESTINIAN ARABS Pro Palestinian spokespeople play bait-and-switch on the charge of Jew-hatred as the motivating factor behind suicide bombings with sanctimonious stock lectures on Christian complicity in the Nazi Holocaust against the Jews. Britain was so concerned with Nazi inroads into the Arab world in 1938, the eve of World War II, that they issued the infamous White Paper limiting Jewish immigration to Palestine, contributing to locking Jews into a Europe that was being overrun by Hitler. Emir Faisal, heading the Arab delegation to the 1919 Paris Peace Conference, had formally recognized the future Jewish state in a signed document that explicitly called for Jewish immigration to Palestine. www.shalomjerusalem.com /mohammedism/mohammedism22.html   (832 words)

Ten Reasons to Love "Palestinian" Arabs   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30) The moment a Palestinian Arab child is born, his parents begin to plan his death. For their own protection, Israel had to close its borders, preventing Palestinians from going to their jobs, so they could sit around unemployed and blame the Jews for it. Arab Muslims who poke fun at their society end up dead. www.masada2000.org /10-Reasons.html   (879 words)

AMERICAN VICTIMS KILLED DURING ARAB TERRORIST ATTACKS   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30) The hostages demanded the withdrawal of Israeli forces from Lebanon and the release of all Palestinian and Lebanese held prisoners in Israel. February 24, 1993: Hava Wechsberg, age 11, was killed when Palestinian Arab rock-throwers attacked the car in which she was riding, causing it to crash, near Karmei Tzur. Ali Hassan Abu Kamal, a Palestinian teacher, opened fire on the 86th-floor observation deck of New York City's Empire State Building, killing killing a Danish national and wounding six others before shooting himself to death. avpv.tripod.com /AmericanVictims.html   (5109 words)

Bibliography: Arabs, Islam, Palestine-Israel, Middle East and Zionism The authors offer perceptive observations on the status of Palestinian citizens of Israel, the successes and failures of the Oslo process, and the prospects for both Palestinians and Israelis of achieving a peaceful future together. It is not kind to Israel and Zionism, and it fails to set context of the actions against the background of the Arab and Palestinian attempt to dismantle Israel and expel its Jewish inhabitants - a fault remedied in Righteous Victims. Morris documents the subjugation and humiliation of Jews under Islam, the miserable state of Palestine under Turkish rule, the plans by Zionists to force Arab immigration, the Nazi associations of the Mufti, the perfidy of the British against both sides, the flight and expulsion of Palestinian Arabs, and the history of each war. www.mideastweb.org /biblio.htm   (3100 words)

GOP Bloggers :: Palestinian Arabs Renounce Peace, Again As the Palestinian Arabs have done in the past, they once again declare that any "peace" agreement with Israel is only a temporary, interim step towards their true goal: the destruction of the State of Israel. In 1948, the Palestinian Arabs were given their own nation for the first time in history, but chose war to destroy the Jewish state of Israel instead.

Hitler and the Palestinian Arabs   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30) Germany´s objective would then be solely the destruction of the Jewish element residing in the Arab sphere under the protection of British power. Of course the Arabs never thought it out to the next stage, which would have been as slaves to the "master race". It was no accident that when Arafat first visited the new "palestinian" 'self-rule' areas, his "police" greeted him with NAZI salutes in honor of the occassion. www.freerepublic.com /focus/news/812480/posts   (1782 words)
