Purpose

How Can You Help?

If you are an Israeli, you can help us by contributing any information or pictures you have about the destroyed or ethnically cleansed cities and villages. We at PalestineRemembered.com do not judge all Israelis or Jews by the actions of the Zionist movement and its leaders. We understand that many Israelis and Jews around the world support the Palestinian struggle for justice and are willing to do their part in bringing an end to the wrongs of the past

KORAN TEACHES ALL MUSLIMS TO HATE JEWS. WHAT PEACE ARE WE TALKING ABOUT?

Posted by hamas on November 21, 2010 #126372

Now, if someone read my posts with a nick name, "hamas" see how they get deleted in 30 minutes, because that is what muslims do not want you to know.

'rashed' I agree with you I love my Palestine too, more than I can explain in words but I also believe you should not hate Israel, hate the injustices that some may say is in the name of Israel but do not hate Israel because to make peace hate is not an option and as much as it is hard for some to belive even myself sometimes there are Israelis out there that are trying to help, that understand their are injustices that are happening every day to the Palestinians, my people and I am assuming yours. So next time I just want to ask you to please think about what you hate not who because stereotyping can often lead to bad things. Thanks

Glad to see this site is up and available. I don't know of any other site that is as basic, objective, discerning and historically accurate. It is well assembled and easy to access. It dispells illusions while documenting reality. It should be a 101 class in colleges and universities. Thank you from Wyoming, USA.

The right of return
The Covenant and the promise of

To those who insist on negotiations to submit to the usurper waiver of Palestine
or even grain of soil from my small village.
I have to tell them you will get the frustration and despair, Then you are going to have to return to embrace of your people and your nativeland, but not before it's too late, or would commit suicide.
In this sense
I renew my covenant and promise to go back to Palestine no matter how long or be short. and whatever and how built fort or walls,I will return by God willing.
But what is said about the settlement out. I say, would give me the entire globe with easts & wests, mountains and the two nods as an alternative to Palestine I will not accept.
if they said in your right the sun and in your left hand , the moon I will not accept, even if they said the dollar and the yen are yours and the euro ,riyal also yours I will not accept.
I recommend my children after me to be on this Covenant and promise As promised here's soul has came back to you, with my body & with my sons and grandchildren, or with their randchildren,I will be back,O Palestine.
I'm going back, I'm back, I'm back
God willing.

Okay fair enough to 'elenaalexceinko' you are patriotic and I will not stop you from fighting for your country, I only ask that when you do fight, you fight against the bad people not the innocent. I ask that you think before you raise that gun and maybe even talk to some of your Palestinian neighbours because communication is the absolute key to finding a solution. And one last thing I think you need to realise that 'your country' happens to be shared by two people and both of those people want peace.

I wish all the hate-comments in this site would be monitored by the administrators. They might be a good catharasis for their writers, but actually work against the information and messages brought by this site.

as a member of Israel Army i will say one thing : even if my country is wrong it is still my country and i and my friends will fight until our dying breath for our country.we will never surrender.

I agree 100% with "sahar" that those who wish to champion equality and peace in the world must lead by example. That does not mean that we should tolerate the crimes of the past and present but work to spread empathy for the "other" so that horrors like the Nakba of 1948 or the Kristallnacht of 1938 are never repeated again.

Best regards,

I dont know about all the other users but I think this site should not be used as a place where battles are faught between these two people, but let us as Palestinians and Israelis, Muslims, Jews and Christians show that peace is possible. Let us lead by example because if we as people of the country cannot negotiate and agree on something there is no hope not for us or our people.
The key to peace is education and hope, let us educate our people and in turn give them hope for a just Palestine-Israel

As an American I am outraged that we would have any role in displacing Palestinians from their homes, much less with such cruelty. Without a doubt Palestinians have a culture, art and heritage and a country until Israel was permitted to seize property. I make it a point to find out where candidates stand on this issue before voting. I no longer vote for anyone who I think will blindly support Israel. They have become a menace to the world and need to be told they can not continue to expand at the expense of the rest of the world.
Unfortunately, my country which was founded on the premise of religious freedom for all is becoming narrow minded and only see 9/11 as a beginning, not the slap of awareness it should have been. It was horribly wrong but so is the occupation of Palestine. I want to know who decided to remove Palestine from the maps of the world. Israel is a thief and a horrible neighbor.

Posted by DaveCOUSA on August 20, 2010 #119981

As an American, I have to admit that I was always in favor of the Israeli side of the story until I did some independant research on my own and went out and purchased a copy of Jimmy Carter's book "Peace, not Apartheid". The Jewish controlled media in my country distorted the true picture of the conflict and I am ashamed to have not realized this sooner. I believe this conflict can only be solved by making many more people aware of the truth. I fully support the Palestinian cause now.

The United States gives more economic aid AND military aid to Israel than any other country, financing Israel’s settlements in the occupied territories and supplying it's military aggressions. The reason for this is that pro-Israel organizations are THE most effective lobbyist working the US Congress. They out-spend pro-Arab and pro-Muslim lobbying groups (combined) by a ratio of about 70:1. Developing a major plan to increase lobbying efforts to the US Congress needs to be a top Palestinian priority.

Posted by GK on February 23, 2010 #104612

Israeli policy toward arabs is not smart. The military advantage of Israel will not be for ever. Israel is a small. Arabs has oil. One day arabs become stronger. They will not forget the years of humiliation. They will respond by any means. What does Israel hope for in the future. The more abuse of arabs now the stronger respons will be in the future. None state has been strong for ever.

Hi,

For one second, let's assume your correct.

Does it imply that you lived in Palestine over 2000 years you have the right to ethnically cleanse and dispossess the indigenous population?

If you are correct, can the Arabs of Spain who lived in Spain for 800 years have the right to ethnically cleanse and loot Spanish properties?

Most importantly, how do you prove that you a direct decedent of those Jews who lived in Palestine 2000 years ago?

How do you know Palestinians aren't the same Jews and you are not a convert to Judaism?

The simply and honest fact is : You are in Palestine because of European anti-Semitism, because of their organized pogroms which robbed their Jewish citizens of dignity, human life, and in my opinion also much of your humanity. Now you are more like turmented abused child who survived centurieds of persecution and finally you got your chance to prove yourself; sadly on somebody else's expense. In that respect It should be noted that Palestine was pillaged and raped for 200 years during the crusade Genocide and not even a single person of those so called Zionist lent a hand to cleanse it from the Crusaders. Conveniently, they have left the job to the Goems/Gentiles? I have written an article on the subject called the Spartan Jew, click below: http://www.palestineremembered.com/Articles/General/Story11920.html

Posted by Understandbothsides on February 21, 2010 #104370

How can one side deny the rights of the other side to a homeland?

Palestinians have been yearning for their homeland for over 60 years. Refugees have kept keys of their homes and pass it from generation to generation.

Jews have been yearning for their homeland for 2000 years. They didn't keep keys, but their prayers to go back to their homeland echoed in every breath they took, wherever they were forced to live.

Does time heal the wounds and yearnings, or does it only makes them stronger, more sacred? I say the latter. You admit you will never forget, so how do you expect the Jews to forget?

Palestinians cannot claim for their homeland on the basis of history (whether near or far), if they don't accept the Jews' right for their homeland based on history (whether near or far). And the same goes for Jews. One side's legitimacy of claim is equivalent to the other, and if you deny one side's legitimacy, you deny your own side as well.

The only solution for the end of this struggle is two states, living side by side. Israelis are not going anywhere, and neither are Palestinians. The unrealistic fantasies of both extreme ends of the narratives are the only ones fueling the continuing of bloodshed and suffering. Most people on both sides want a reconciliation and the chance to live a normal, peaceful, life. Seek life, love, and a good future for you and your children, and not constant struggle based on a past you cannot change. This region can be one of the most prosperous in the world, if both sides stop fighting and respectfully agree to march forward to a solution. We will ALL benefit from peace, and we ALL lose from the never ending struggle.

Just my two cents. A Salam aleikum.

You can establish your jewish state on your properties in your origin state your came from, but not on our properties in our stallen nativeland PALESTINE. Of which will be back for Sea toRiver and from Naqoura to Um-Rashrash.
So, you should understand our promise and keep it in your mind in minds of all zionsims:

The right of return

I renew my covenant and promise to go back to Palestine no matter how long or be short. and whatever and how built fort or walls . I will return by God willing.

I recommend my children after me to be on this Covenant and promise

I am an Israeli and a Zionist, and I completely agree that Palestinians have the right for self determination and their own state. However, I fail to realize why so many people on this site deny the very same things from the Jews. There are 48 Muslim coutries in the world, more than a BILLION muslims, comprising around 1/8 of the world's territory- and one Jewish state, roughly the size of New Jersey. Are we REALLY such a threat to you all? I think most of you beleive Zionism to be something that it's not.
Again, I'm all for establishing a Palestinian state next to the Jewish one, AND MOST ISRAELIS AGREE WITH ME. We're not the devil, people, we just want to be safe in our state.

I'm an American without any direct connection to Isrealis or Palestinians. I have been reading up on Zionism in recent months. What has shocked me the most is that while the Nazi's were perpetrating horrific crimes against the Jewish people, Ben-Gurion and the Zionist hierarchy in Palestine were plotting very brutal acts against the Palestinians in order to create a Jewish state... acts that they carried out.

I come from Indonesia, this conflict seems quite long indeed. and many make hard all races, religions and ethnicities. but, forgive me if the whole Zionist destroyed by a group of people tired of the crime to all mankind.

"Deception Has Always Been The Name of The Zionist Game."
The eminent historian George Antonius once said:
"Veiled Zionist propaganda is active, highly organised and widespread; the World press is largely amenable to it, it commands many of the available channels for the dessemination of news and more particularly in the English speaking world"
That's one of the reasons why I have subscribed to this site. There are millions and millions of people, like myself the world over, who sympathise with the plight of the long suffering Palestinain people and their numbers are growing. More and more people are beginning to see the light. The criminal Nazionist regime, same as once the white South- African Apartheids regime in the past, may be in control at this very point in time, but not for ever that's for sure. The Nazionist rogue regime, same as once the white supremacy regime in SA, carries the very genes (DNA) for its own demise.

:/ hm, are we not all terrorists in a way?
But that is stereotypical, so I guess not.

To the many people of this world:
I do not know if saying something mean about a group of people will really help in any way, is it not just adding more fuel to the fire?
And, What if a person in a group was not like the rest of the people, but you still call that group as a whole something unkind. that would be saying that one person who might think differently does not even exist in the world, and all the world is just filled with a bunch of rotten people. That is a sad thought D:
Try looking at things through all points of views. Friends, enemies (who may end up to become your great friends :D, doesn't it happen a lot with children? they fight a few days ago, and now they are good friends. ) , and many others.
But I understand completely that it isn't as easy as written here. :/ Thoughts are so complicated. And I don't think I am conveying my thoughts that well.

I hope we will be able to come up with a way to resolve this conflict.
It is painful to watch other people suffer. We are all humans and have equal rights, no matter what race or religion. The unknown is feared by many, but once they know more about the unknown it isn't unknown anymore so there is not need to fear and hurt. We all just have to take that step forward :D

If everyone could give with a kindred spirit, it would be a world filled with nice people :D
I think there is joy in others' happiness, like a laugh is contagious.
:]

(This may seem irrelevant but just pointing out, why must people fight even on the internet, on this site where people are trying to resolve this conflict not create a larger one.)

Dear Moshe,
Nobody can force others to forget a stolen right of them. It's a psychological fact that you can not deny. Moreover, the facts tells us the oppisite about who is in the picture. And for you as a jew, of course you know that sometimes you have to suffer for long time to get your right back. And we will see :)
Big cheers

As an Israeli I was raised and told the Palestinian left on their "Own free will" As achild I did not understand any of it and swallowed the Zionist propaganda cliches.I arrived at the conclusion that the ethnic cleansing was a premeditated Zionist plan to turn Palestine into a so called "Jewish Democracy"
The Israeli Education minister,Gideon Saar,has instructed the term Nakba be removed from Israeli history books which makes your work highly significant in preventing the rewriting of History.

Posted by hoboken on July 4, 2009 #82037

While much (perhaps all) of what you document on this site is absolutely true as a matter of historical record, the tone with which the information is presented, the singular attitude towards Israelis and Jewish people, is exactly the sort of thing (from all sides) that keeps that guarantees this conflict will keep going on and on and on. I think at least some readers will understand what I mean.

Dear Saramugsy,

I have watch your recommended link of http//www.frumchat.com/vidfeeder_view.php?id=fIjs1TT5-sc&keyword=boycot Israel. I have no dispute on the contribution of the jewish scientists, engineers & doctors to human race. I admire and respect their dedication and i am thankful to be able to be benefited whether directly or indirectly from their inventions. I praise & regarded them highly. I think every normal human being with reasonable logic & a sound mind would be agree with me.

However, even with all the contribution and all the dedication, it is still cannot justify any kind of Zionist's crime on humanity. I cannot agree with your theory that because you have save me, then you will entitle the right to kill me. No you still don't. It is a crime irregardless of what your contribution to me was before.

Besides, those scientists, doctors & engineers who have dedicated their whole life passionately invent, innovate & perfecting life saving medicines or apparatus, are definitely not the same group of people as those Zionist whose entire life is to ambitiously, passionately, affectionately planing of the torturing, killing and ethic cleansing of the indigenous inhabitant, merely to achieve their political goal- a total Jewish & Jewish only state in a arab majority state. Their are fundamentally contradicting each other on their life's goal.

And please do not exploit these outstanding contribution by using it as a threatening tools to others' on their objection on the Zionist's cruelty. I believe as most peace lover believe, that we object only the cruelty, inhumane, torturing, killing & ethnic cleansing by any form but not to any person, any race, political body or religion. Should Zionist have not done and is not doing and will not do it anymore of their cruelty to others, there will be no objection, boycott of any form whatsoever for sure. But once again, the Zionist regime does not represents all Jewish and all Judaism believer...

How bliss can this world be if those brilliant invention and innovation the Jewish scientists, doctors & engineers have contributed, were not marred by the Zionist regime's bloody inhumanity. It would be considered perfect! The good name of those good people is smeared by the regime's inhumanity.

And I think, the boycott of course cannot inflict the kind of effectiveness as compared to military force to halt the Israel's military advance & offensive. It is purely to raise awareness among the world community of the Israel/Zionist inhumanity and as a form of pressure from all over the world. We still have a choice. We may not live in extravagance if we choose to boycott those products, we may not enjoy as much as those who decided to blind their conscience by supporting the inhumanity activity by continuing using those products, we may not be as healthy or as wealthy, but we will not suffer significant neither. We have a choice to use other brand if we had to use any kind of this product. We are happy enough to live in less advanced, less developed life if our little change or little sacrifice can help to stop the inhumanity. We will live & die in peace, free from using products, which R&D funded by the blood of innocent children, men & women. We do not want blood in our hand and our children's hand.

Wish all the peace lovers luck & courage!!!
