On Sunday 24, it became known that Keith Dayton and Jacob Wallace, the US Consul General in Jerusalem, are dictating the “security policy” for Palestine. Several meeting were held between the PA president Abass, the American envoys, and Palestinian General Abdel Razeq Al-Yehyah. This can only mean that a disaster is coming and that huge lists with names of persons to be killed or detained in

The US financed the Palestinian Presidential Forces under control of Mahmoud Abbas with eighty million dollars. Not only that, but the war criminal of US General Keith Dayton also organize the training of these Palestinian troops. And beyond that, the European Union is financing the PA and paying part of the salaries of these troops. The images in the following video, which was released to

Did Hamas win Gaza, or have Dahlan-PA-US-Israel implemented a plan conceived in conspiracy? Did Dahlan-PA-Fatah mislead the nearby countries and the European Union and loot millions of dollars under the cover of building illusory military system in Gaza? Did Hamas really defeat the Fatah-PA in Gaza, or did the PA leaders leave Gaza before Hamas militants started the battle? Did Israel-US

The American military coordinator and representative at the Palestinian military, the war criminal General Keith Dayton should return to the US. The Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas should resign, and the International community should take charge of their responsibility toward the Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza.

The Israeli military commander of Hebron, colonel Yehuda Fuchs, has imposed a curfew on the poor Palestinians who live in the old city of Hebron many times. He also closed the main entrance gates to the old market. Nothing has changed in the city of Hebron since 1997. The occupational military commanders who served in Hebron have changed, but the city still lives the same curfews, the same

I have waited for over 11 years before deciding to publish anything about the crimes of the Palestinian Authority and the violation of the rights of Palestinians under the PA. Some readers may have asked themselves why I waited so long before deciding to write anything about these crimes. Simply said, I had working engagements with Palestinian newspapers I was instructed to never write or say

We were lucky; we had two petroleum lamps in our home. I remember these two lamps. One of them hanged from the wall, and the other one was fixed on the window. We used one of them, keeping the other one for emergency cases.My mother took care of these two lamps: in the morning she would clean the one we had used during the night. In the evening she filled it with some new petroleum for lighting.

These are my memories of the "humanitarian relief" of the UNRWA after the Palestinian Naqba. I was between 6 and 14 years old when these things happened. Later, I investigated about irregularities with the UNRWA assistance several times between 1982 and 1995. The situation with the food has become somewhat better since then, but I am sure that children are still treated like what I describe here

I was looking at my watch. It's five past two when I arrived the social office.I was in a deep thought of sharing the poor people living the same life. To share the poor people's life, feelings and problems is something different and difficult for somebody used to be rich.During the past, I exposed the poor people problems, I raised a voice for them voice.

Dear Kawther Salam,I read your story (although parts of it - it is very large) and I am much impressed by it. The terror and terrible facts you have suffered by the Israeli terroristic soldiers disgusted me. Also the pictures I found very striking and I admire your courage to make this report (as a Palestinian reporter) under the siege of the Israeli terror army. Not only to show my admiration to

The IDF soldiers are professional killers, they are used to kill, and statements, sometimes spreading false rumors but always justifying these killings, used to be released by the IDF spokesperson after the killing, and sometimes even before the killing itself.All the journalists working in the West Bank and Gaza Strip know that the IDF spokesperson is a big liar ... in such a position the IDF

Killing is killing everywhere and all the time. I don't like to hear news about killings, even if the slain one is one of my enemies.On June 12, 2002, Colonel Dror Weinberg expelled me from my house in Hebron, which had been occupied by the IDF in 1997 during the peace time. I left Hebron without valediction. How difficult it is to leave your homeland, family and friends without words... Farewell

I went with Ramin to the asylum office. Mr. Pretterebner, the asylum office director, interviewed me. It was a normal interview.

At morning and at evening, each hour and moment I turned my eyes in front of my house in Hebron, I used to see a historical highness palace standing on the nearby hill like a piece of natural art mad by a proficient artist.Since hundreds of years, the grand-grand-grand ... fathers built their palace in the middle of a high rocky hill called Abu Seneneh. The Amero family was owned this palace

Ramin is aware of what he is doing, he is careful not to make any noise that may wake me up at the morning.
