في حب الجزائر العظيمة

قالوا لماذا احب الجزائر
فتشت فى قلب الزمان البعيد
لماذا لماذا احب الجزائر
وجدت كتابا بركن وحيد
لشيخ كبير علمنى الصلاة
وكان يكنى ابو بكر الجزائر
وجدت طريقا يعانق بيتى
ذهاب وعود ينادى عليه
هذا يسمى وهران الجزائر
وجدت قصاصة ورق قديمة
عن الحرب التى كانت فخار
وكانت رسالة من شهيد الجزائر
وصرخة غضب من الزمن البعيد
لنصرة شعبى فى زمن الان...تصار
وكانت لعمرى زعيم الجزائر
وجدت قصيدة عشق طويلة
بحب الجميلة رمز الحرائر
جميلة بوحريد جميلة جزائر
وجدت بقلبى حب الجهاد
فكيف بمن قدم شهيدا
بمليون نجم تضىء الجزائر
سمعت بأذنى همس النبى
تريد جوارى يوم اللقاء
احب اخوك احب الجزائر
رأيت بعينى حب الدعاة
امام الدعاة يحب الجزائر
وصاهر قومى حرائر قومى
فرحم ينادى بحب الجزائر

وان جار يوما بلدى على
فصفح وعفو يضىء الضمائر
فمصر تحب العروبة حبا
يفيض فيمحو كل الصغائر
بنى قومى انزعوا بغضكم
بذكر الاله تنقى السرائر
وأيام حج لنا وحدة
فرجم لبغض بعثر عشائر
فأنما نحن امة واحدة
فمحراب مصر يضىء الجزائر
ونحن الكنانة فى ارض ربى
ونحن الهداية الى كل حائر
على درب حطين مصر فسيرى
فخلفك جموع الامة سائر

Lawyers turn to Facebook to serve legal papers
Translations available in: English (original) | French | Spanish | Italian | German | Portuguese | Swedish | Russian | Dutch | Arabic

Lawyers in Australia expect the internet social network site Facebook to become a new way of tracking down defendants after a landmark court ruling.

The Supreme Court in Australia's capital Canberra has ruled that Facebook is a sufficient way of serving legal documents to defendants who cannot be found.

The case surrounded a couple who defaulted on a loan, but who couldn't be found.

"We couldn't find the defendants personally after many attempts so we thought we would try and find them on Facebook," lawyer Mark McCormack said.

"We did a public search based on the email address we had and the defendants Facebook page appeared."

He said that was enough to convince the court, which found Facebook was a sufficient way of communicating legal papers when it is the plaintiff's responsibility to personally deliver documents.

Organization of the meeting place supervized on the collective qualifications Algerian outside and the national organization [mn] ['ajl] promotion of the health and development of the searching in the participation with ministry the national education high and the scientific research and national ministry the solidarity and the family and the community in the leaving.

The meeting place targeted who concluded yesterday and three days continued, exchange of the experiences scientific and the Algerian technology between the qualifications in the leaving and similar her inside Algeria, and possibility transfer of the skill and the technology for economic supports of the development.

About importance of the meeting place worldwide member the council for the water of the doctor Ahmed said book indeed “Algeria for de her many qualifications outside especially in America and as dew and France and British, and this qualifications for the work in the islands call”.

Book indicated until Algeria promoted scientific budget the research during the five years coming to hundred one billion Dinar Algerian (1.4 one billion dollar American) for coverage 35 research, weak scientific equality of five multiples expenses of the research since 1998.


Book praises increase budget of the scientific
research praises in (Al-Jazeera)

opinion and male that Algeria occupies the rank first in African from where specification of budget for the scientific research 1% blessing informs resulting national.

On the antithesis thereof the new researcher in the energies in Canada sees the doctor wanted [xaarwn] that this budget is humble to the searching in Algeria scattered, and said indeed her equality of specialized searching one in America.

Confirms [xaarwn] that the renewed energies in Algeria is available and her exploitation be possible direct and that she needs only to her moneys for conversion to clean energy instead about the oil.

Hosts “theoretical turnip that the national company the Algerian for the fuel ([swnTraak]) for de her research centers and students searchs in projects straightens in her, and he what does him the western companies the grown-up in employment findings to raising of the production, and this comparative progress big in the islands in the seventies”.

إذا تكلم الحذاء فأنصتوا!!
Translations available in: Arabic (original) | French | Spanish | Italian | German | Portuguese | English | Swedish | Russian | Dutch

If talking of the shoe [f'anStwaa]!!
Automatically translated into English thanks to WorldLingo
As that she sign of the beginning [Sadarat] about Al-Maliki then said and he standing to side “his guest” Bush: “.. The time, get close a lot from the end”. Was “the end”, or “holding (or shoe) the end”, so if in the journalist Iraqi expected [aalzydy], or “[aalzydy] expected”, his shoe extracts, [mTyyiraaAA] ['iyyaaah] towards head President of Bush and he calls saying: “this kiss [aalwdaae'] [yaa] dog”!

In the scene, who saw him after signature possessing and Bush to “consensual” in “capital of the occupation”, any in “Green Zone”, one of the shoes saw rushs [mttajhaaAA] towards the goal; But he mistook aimed him, so rubbish from a distance 4.5 meter from President of Bush, who surprises in “the occurrence” most a lot of which surprise in his explores our visit; Then the other saw, any last shoe, injury of the goal tries. Al-Maliki saw his attempt fails in snatched and picking up raved the shoe before big dignity of guest hits from his death.

Bush, who the fear saw in directed him after departure of the shoe first for assumption his that he already bomb on form is shoe, hurried to ['iHnaa'] headed him, [tlaafyaaAA] for her injury, or respect and respects; Then hopes you himself, and affectation [aalaabtsaam].

Followed Bush was possesses [nzraaAA] from the leading soul to men of the security called who followed on “[aalzydy] expected” his beating to the stop about beating and shreds felt him, and his Turks and his matter, and humiliation raved “the criminal” in the forgiveness about him, so great eye belittles in great, [waalSGaay'r] ossification in eye small; To greatness in eye already small Bush, so flooded him the happiness and he sees the dogs [tnhsh] the Iraqi hero raved; Then armament in the insolence then said, explainer and the warranted happening shoe, indeed the person raved explores to work straightens in, asks me the journalists about him. Raved who happened (the happening shoe) what was for him to happens if Iraq do not harbor the freedom softens in, so for the freedom door in all shoe knocks.

If thing was from fits “news” in all talk Bush so the thing raved ['innamaa] he discovered him for journalistic that measurement of the shoe was 44!

Indeed her “the end” which our recollection in “the beginning”, so is what ended remembers?!

To came “the Marines”, on the basis of legends of the agreement Al-Boushi, “liberators” for his people from dictatorial [waalTGyaan], [wbaadhryn] seeds “the freedom” in their bullets and their bombs and their rockets, so output of Iraqi people in their reception in the flowers and the roses. After ['asbGwaa] on Iraqi people blessing of the freedom, and democratic Iraq the example high for his made limes [aal'aqrbyn] [waal'abe'dyn], Bush came himself aprons blamed improves to them, [naasyaaAA] or [mtnaasyaaAA] that beneficent be necessary for him to evil fears from improves to him, so came him “kiss [aalwdaae'] Iraqi”;

Calculates that President of Bush needs now to from dissects for him helped “the shoe” in the Arabic culture, so indeed shadow of ignorant in her so does not gain never “war of the thoughts”, and his agreement does not seal except in question of second, [mustaGlaqtUU] his answer on him, as his first question. To his agreement started questioning in naivety “why forces us?! ”; Weak he be about to to ends him questioning in naivety of big “why throws us in the shoes?!”.

Friends Iraqi in Cyprus generous Al-Rabii was all deduction threatens for him saying: “will slaughter him in the shoe”. To already continued ignorant meaning and returned him or says him corroded saw “shoe [aalzydy]” Bush on organization attacks on knife, slaughters in him the dignity and the arrogance and the arrogance.

As for colleagues in the newspaper “Abu is handsome”, head section of the linguistic investigation, disassemblies [ynaaSbny] hostility of linguistic if I said “example copied so for to”, so as wig “copied” stubborn his ['innamaa] means “shoe took”; Welfare of use have fun ['innamaa] statement from guarantee is in “the shoe copied (any clothed him)”. Colleagues agree “Abu is handsome” thereon in the event of was “[aaHtdhaa'] the Iraqi democracy” his meaning modifies in “[aaHtdhaa'] the shoe”, and contradicts him in the event of was “the shoe” in this phrase shoe includes [aalzydy], so this shoe who be about to [yshj] head of Bush promotes head Arabic ['ajme'yn], so to Basem reads “[aalzydy] expected” who in his shoe the nation created for horizon!

To came “the happening shoe” [ltudhkkirny] in last meaning for the word, so if you said “imitates him stab” so this ['innamaa] means “stabbed him cutting stab”. Calculates that [aalzydy] his shoe carried raved shines us then directs him towards Bush, [jaae'laaAA] for him, consequently, fame excellence of fame “shoe of the mandolins”.

For the shoe synonymous he “the slipper”, who meets him ([wyaa] for the coincidence) in the Persian “[baabwsh]”!

Appears that “the happening shoe” will enrich “culture democratic”, so there from democratic (and I their blessing) from understanding happening on that she forms formed from “freedom of speech”, which sanctifies her Bush in hypocrisy his democratic.

To discovered the journalist raved that “the article” from type “established”, and that “the shoe” in the place raved believes ['inbaa'AA] from the pen and the tongue. From [aalkutub], so his use hereunto the special manner in him the evident border the grandfather and the games.

Followed place was “the shoe”, any manufacturer or seller kind of the shoe who put on shoes him [aalzydy], then uses him on welfare directed, to masts took from “the happening shoe” commercial advertisements, [syDaae'f], wear of doubt, sales industrialized or the place.

Followed valued of the arrival were in to “shoe [aalzydy]”, and his his rescue from claws of prisoners, [lDmmth] to the political museum the interview to Iraq, so this “the shoe” historic letter does not afflict his except in characteristic forms him representative for shoes of Iraqi people all; As for [aalzydy] himself film [yaqum] in what representation about Iraqi people rose except all him.

If was for me to men of the security advize so indeed me advizes them that future on [nze'] of the shoes be available, so disarmament and his border does not suffice on what fixed and confirming in “the happening shoe”, which on her clarity and her clarity mingled her the obscurity and the ambiguity wanted from, so assigned me Bush saw with a smile; Aural mother losing heard wail, so hot brains in answer the coming question: Is [aalmbtsm] he who the shoe hit in?

Was possible that brains continue in confused him long times if [ytnaaha] to hearings scream of the shoe: In any guilt striked?!

Then, Arafa on face the certitude any them the other hit in, so how evil head printing of Iraqi people on directed him “kiss and reason” on organization of shoe, and blessings shoe of income of the date in characteristic formed him the shoe who hit hereby President!

His books is horse in.

From Algeria: OPEC seen in consensus on output cut
Related to country: Algeria

Translations available in: English (original) | French | Spanish | Italian | German | Portuguese | Swedish | Russian | Dutch | Arabic

OPEC ministers are in agreement on the need to cut output when they meet on Wednesday in Algeria to prop up sagging prices, OPEC President Chakib Khelil said on Saturday.

"There is an OPEC consensus on the reduction. But I can not tell you (more)," Khelil told reporters.

Since early September, the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries has already agreed to reduce supply by a total of two million barrels per day (bpd).

OPEC oil ministers are scheduled to meet in the western Algerian city of Oran on Wednesday amid expectations they will endorse a large cut in supplies to prevent further falls in oil prices.

Khelil, who is also Algeria's energy and mining minister, said Russia and some other non-OPEC oil producing countries like Azerbijan are to due attend the Oran meeting.

But he gave no further details about their possible contribution in trimming oil crude supply.

The perceptions of trends in the future work with civil society organizations in the Arab region
Translations available in: English (original) | French | Spanish | Italian | German | Portuguese | Swedish | Russian | Dutch | Arabic

The start of the perceptions of the trends of the future work, is determined by the level of civil society organizations here, and defense organizations, namely those concerned with the defense of human rights, women, and children's rights. These organizations take the legitimacy of the absence of rights or lack of application and operating mechanisms of dialogue and negotiation and pressure governments and with them.
Here, we must recognize the need and difficulties in the work of these organizations in the current situation of the rights in the region. However, work will continue to be important even in these difficult circumstances, is required to improve its own mechanisms for the management of the state of society and thus contribute through dialogue and negotiation in the political stability of societies may be on the transfer of these organizations struggle (conflict) in most societies of this region, the struggle of civil jurist And democracy in this area are the merits and safety valve for the non-diversion of civil struggle to political violence
Here, emphasis should be placed on seeking donors to contribute to projects supporting civil society organizations aimed at civil defense both at the regional or country level, and the promotion of programs to enhance coordination and exchange of experiences among these organizations.
Based on this vision, the coordination mechanism between the organizations for the rights of the defense should be complementary to, not only because such as coordination between women's organizations for women's rights, but to look at women's issues as to penetrate all levels, organizations are coordinating with the defense For the development rights organizations for women's empowerment and poverty alleviation, welfare organizations to alleviate the suffering of the most vulnerable women to change their destiny.
Therefore, coordination is also required at the province level, the networks are enormous pressure on the level of issues, and here that can contribute to the childhood and the Swedish Sida, in support of regional networks, which is now, and support the establishment of networks on the rights of children and women (because they are not present at the province level) Like human rights.
While the institutional development of networking relations at the level of civil society organizations in the region, appeared in more than a (childhood: the Arab Council for Childhood and Development, Women: Arab Women's Organization, Women's Studies Center (Kosar), Arab Network for NGOs, the Ibn Khaldoun Center for Development Studies .... And others), but the return form the government, which emerged in the interest of the League of Arab States (for example) to find channels of interest to civil society, human rights and children's issues is the need to activate the other so as not to remain phenomena audio formats - as is the case - that of the definition Arab attention is paid to these areas only.
And civil society organizations to move these institutions and pressure to activate the performance, and here comes the importance of the participation of supporting organizations funded (Organization of the Children Sweden and SIDA) to examine the development of these forms and supporting programs to coordinate efforts to serve the country and regional levels.
The training and empowerment of civil society activists is the other important, to raise the capabilities of these organizations, and here are required to extend training to help many areas in the provision of effective techniques for participation and dialogue and negotiation and pressure.
Therefore we suggest the following:
- The start of the Outlook integration of the rights in coordination with the relevant institutions and the various rights at the international, regional and country levels.
- Support entities, which is now the civil society organizations (nationally and regionally), and use of the bodies found in the region such as the Arab Human Rights, the Ibn Khaldoun Center for Development Studies, the Arab Network for NGOs, the Arab Council for Childhood and Development, Center for Women's Studies (Kosar) and others.
- Encourage and support the establishment of civil society organizations in the areas of rights, as well as unions and coalitions both at the country level or regional level.
- A database of civil society organizations and official institutions and international bodies working in the areas of human rights, women and children.
- Promote research and studies (national and regional) specializing in human rights issues, women and children, and giving attention to programs designed to spread awareness in these aspects.
- Definition of documents relevant international and regional human rights of women and children, knowledge of the sessions for cadres and activists and institutions involved.
Sessions (national and regional) for the exchange of experiences and definition techniques work in the areas of monitoring and follow-up and participation and negotiation

The difficulties faced by civil society organizations in the Arab region
Translations available in: English (original) | French | Spanish | Italian | German | Portuguese | Swedish | Russian | Dutch | Arabic

Despite the evolution and spread of civil society organization in the region, however some organization still remain subjected to criticism regarding the nature of work others for the domination of some individuals on its activities, some use it for personal objectives and then there are others whom they do not serve Arab societies, yet most organizations are criticized due to lack of transparency in decision-making and lack of respect for the internal laws, and accountability in the implementation Activities. Nevertheless some of those organizations are also lacking the necessary fund to peruse implementing their projects and activities, which leads some to rely on international donors and sponsors, which often faces criticism and doubt the good intentions of funders, institutions and associations.

Accordingly, we will show in this section some of the difficulties faced by civil society as follows:

A) The difficulties of Foreign Affairs (subjective):
There is no doubt that addressing the problem of performance of civil society organizations require identification of the environment emerged from the organizations, and influences the political, cultural and legislative environs. It is even more complicated when discussing defensive rights organizations - Human Rights, the rights of women, and children's rights.


One of those difficulties is the freedom space given in the Arab world, where it remains limited compared to other communities in the world, as authorities are still main dominators and not subjected to accountability or deliberation. The report "Freedom House" of 2004 that only five Arab countries are listed as countries with limited freedoms, while the remaining list of countries were listed with no political freedom, despite the controversy over the relative differences between them, they (i.e the Arab States) all share incoming the lack political freedom.

Associated with such a difficult legal position of the work of civil society organizations (as indicated), which based the existence of common diseases, and features known as the totalitarian repression and legislation.

In fact, those legal restrictions imposed may take many forms (designed either to lack of organization and financing), or left in the pending status (legal recognition), or attempt to dominate the other way.
While some organizations have found a way to enable them to exist and work, such as non-profit companies, the overall situation in the region was the tendency to crush the work and disruption of law and putting obstacles in front of them.

Nevertheless due to the status of freedom of speech and political harassments and lack of political parties' presence that leads the human rights movement facing with great challenges.

Khalid Omar addresses restrictions of laws and legislation are the most important impediments to the activity of civil society institutions that restrict the movement and access to appropriate funding, as well as its contribution to limit the possibility of direct political reform.

The lack of international funding and its complexities is one of the most important constraints that stops the arab civil society and their activities.

And links these obstacles to the fear of some governments from the activity of those civil society organizations and keep trying to deactivate their programs.

Blkoc Habib adds that the question of funding has been and continues to exist, that regulations which limit the work of law and civil laws, especially at the level of legislation and practice, can not work to provide the conditions required to support this person, legislation and laws does not support or facilitate the national or regional organization, and foreign funding will remain suspended in many countries, although the latter sometimes linked to partnership agreements opens the door for that.

The competition between supporting organizations (international and regional) is one of the problems that arise under repeated support for some civil society organizations for the same activities or programs, which sometimes encourages phenomena such as corruption and cons of the financial framework of civil society organizations.

B) internal difficulties:
Hence the difficulties faced by civil society organizations are not all foreign, but there are Problems associated with institutions of civil society, we will try to highlight here the most important of these difficulties.

Hoveyda Adli indicates that the non-governmental organizations suffer from many problems including: the presence of several non-governmental organizations - because of the multiplicity of financiers and donors - have become even more of the state bureaucracy and more adherent to the same philosophy of the traditional administrative organs, and turned to A sub-contractor for both Governments or donors, and this makes it far from thinking to change reality or to press for policy change, and add that civil society can not build democratic norms even within the frameworks, which suffers from internal conflicts that threaten dividing itself and there is no democratic management of the conflict . There is another problem linked to the renewal of existing elites to run the civil society, where there is stagnation of the elite, and there are many civil society organizations "historic leader" took control of all matters and appointed his relatives and friends from around the, as is my neighbor in the official authorities.

According to Baz Şahide studies have shown that, despite the way the rule of electoral organizations of civil society, but other indicators such as turnover index (negotiable) power, has shown the weakness of democratic practice within organizations, and many of the procedures are formal way, leading to a monopoly of making minority Resolution to the continuing control by the elite leadership for many years, and provide an opportunity for young leaders, has led to the existence of so-called phenomenon of "personifying-based organizations."

The problems appear linked to the issue of lack of transparency and democratic practice within the institutions of civil society itself is damaging the reputation and lose credibility with the people and thus the ability to reform or change in society.

The absence of mechanisms of starting organizations and rely on indiscriminate and individual work often with the lack of experience in enterprise management, is also one of the problems existing in a number of civil society organizations, and also relates to the lack of clear objectives to some of these institutions, which work areas Puts it in disarray, and perhaps failure.

There are twice as a "technician" is the poverty suffered by some civil society organizations in the management of dialogue with governments and partners, particularly in how to negotiate with them. Negotiation requires special techniques, which is usually the culmination of a qualitative development in the performance of civil society organizations, offered to be a party to a strong and credible interlocutor can no longer be ignored.

It can be summarized the main challenges facing civil society organizations:
question of the legality of work.
question of the independence of such organizations (government, parties, financiers)
building democratic and institutional efficiency and effective management.
sustainable financing and self-reliance.
issue of participation in policy-making.
the issue of strengthening cooperation and coordination and consultation between the organizations themselves at the country level or regional level.

The problems before the civil society organizations (and their human rights) are the challenges of society as a whole, with all required to improve the performance of the state to the level required transformations, and the required from the Department for the advancement of political rights and freedoms of citizens and ensure the dignity and protection from abuses and violations within the project-based components overlap And guarantees the constitutional and legislative, institutional and cultural rights.

This makes civil society organizations are invited to participate in the laying of the draft reform and democracy, as they claim the continuous assessment of performance and requirements of developing slogans and principles within the structures. This calls for development of visions and plans appropriate to strengthen performance and enhance the prestige of work in a democratic structure desired.

Palestinian 60th anniversary catasrophe‏
Translations available in: English (original) | French | Spanish | Italian | German | Portuguese | Swedish | Russian | Dutch | Arabic

'No Settlement can be just and complete if recognition is not accorded to the right of the Arab refugee to return to the home from which he has been dislodged… It would be an offence against the principles of elemental justice if these innocent victims of the conflict were denied the right to return to their homes while Jewish immigrants flow into Palestine, and indeed, offer the threat of permanent replacement of the Arab refugees who have been rooted in the land for centuries.' - UN Mediator for Palestine, Count Folk Bernadotte, September 16th, 1948

'I will never accept a solution that is based on their return to Israel, any number… I will not agree to accept any kind of Israeli responsibility for the refugees. Full stop. It is a moral issue of the highest level. I don't think that we should accept any kind of responsibility for the creation of this problem.' - Ehud Olmert, Israeli Prime Minister, March 30th, 2008

May 15th, 2008 marks the 60th commemoration of the Palestinian 'Nakba' -the catastrophe- that struck the Palestinian people through the policies and actions surrounding the establishment of the State of Israel on 78% of Historic Palestine. Sixty years ago the world witnessed the expulsion of around 800,000 Muslim and Christian Palestinians from their cities and villages, the killings of civilians and the destruction of hundreds of Palestinian villages. Palestinians were displaced and dispossessed from their homes, creating the largest refugee population in the world.

Today, sadly, the Nakba continues but on a different scale. Israel is perpetuating long-standing policies to forcibly displace a significant amount of the population in the occupied Palestinian territory (oPt).

The following document provides answers to the most frequently asked questions:

1- Who are the Palestinian Refugees?

The original Palestinian refugees wer e approximately 800,000 Muslims and Christians, (amounting to 75% of the Arab population of what became Israel) who fled or were expelled prior to, during and after the 1948 war to create a state for Jews in Palestine. They and their descendents are often referred to as the '1948 refugees'. (See map: Population Movements, 1948-1951,http/ /www.nad-plo. org/images/ maps/pdf/ palreg.pdf).

In 1967, approximately 240,000 Palestinians fled their homes in the occupied West Bank and the Gaza Strip during the war launched by Israel against Jordan and Egypt, capturing and occupying the West Bank, including occupied East Jerusalem, and the Gaza Strip (the oPt). They and their descendents are often referred to as the '1967 displaced persons'.

Since 1967, another 400,000 Palestinians have been displaced from the oPt due to Israeli policies. These policies include home demolitions, settlements and wall construction as well as revocation of residency rights and deportation of Pa lestinians. They have lead to more forced emigration from the oPt.

The victims of these illegal acts who are displaced within the 'borders' of the oPt are referred to as Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs). The exact number is unknown due to the absence of a comprehensive registration system, but they are considered to be around 450,000.

Neither the 1948 refugees nor the 1967 (or more recently) displaced persons have been allowed by Israel to return to their homes in what are now Israel and the oPt.

2- How many Palestinian refugees are there?

Today, the original Palestinian refugees and their descendents are estimated to number more than 7 million and constitute the world's oldest and largest refugee population. They include:

a) 4.5 million 1948 refugees who are registered with UNRWA (2007)
b) 1.5 million 1948 refugees who are not registered with UNRWA either because they did not register or did not need assistance at the time they becam e refugees
c) 950,000 1967 displaced persons, and
d) 350,000 internally displaced in Israel

See map: Palestinian refugees, 2001, http//www.nad-plo. org/images/ maps/pdf/ palreg.pdf

3- Where do the Palestinian refugees live?

Palestinian refugees are dispersed throughout the world, although the majority live within 100 miles of Israel's border. The largest refugee communities reside in Jordan (2,359,000), Syria (465,000) and Lebanon (438,000). Some 1,825,000 refugees live inside the oPt, while an additional 335,000 internally displaced Palestinians live in Israel. The remainder live scattered around the world, primarily in the rest of the Arab World, Europe and the Americas.

More than 1.3 million Palestinian refugees live in 59 U.N administered refugee camps in the oPt, Jordan, Syria and Lebanon and 12 unrecognized refugee camps: 5 in the occupied West Bank, 3 in Jordan and 4 in Syria.

4- How did they become refugees?

'These operati ons can be carried out in the following manner: either by destroying villages (by setting fire to them, by blowing them up, and by planting mines in their debris) and especially of those populations centers which are difficult to control continuously; or by mounting combing and control operations according to the following guidelines: encirclement of the villages, conducting a search inside them. In case of resistance, the armed forces must be wiped out and the population expelled outside the borders of the State.' - Plan Dalet, March 10th, 1948.

Like all refugees, Palestinians left their homes out of fear for their safety as a result of Jewish military operations perpetrated on the ground essentially by the Irgoun and Hagana troops before and during the 1948 war.

Military attacks on Palestinian villages and neighborhoods began as early as December 1947, a few days after the UN Partition Resolution Plan was adopted on 29 November 1947. Coerced expulsions inten sified with the establishment of the Plan Dalet on 10 March 1948 which called for the destruction of Palestinian villages and urban centers and the expulsion of the Arab population living in these areas. Thus, many Palestinians fled due to direct military assaults on their towns and villages; others were forcibly expelled by Jewish military forces. Massacres of Palestinian civilians created an atmosphere of fear that caused many Palestinians to seek safety elsewhere, on the understanding that they would return once the hostilities subsided.

The most famous massacre occurred in Deir Yassin (not far from what is now Israel's Holocaust Memorial) where, by most conservative estimates, the Irgun and Stern troops[15] murdered more than 100 Palestinian men, women and children.

Israelis understandably have a difficult time accepting that their independence came at the expense of the indigenous Palestinians, who were dispossessed of their homeland and property. Israel p erpetuates a number of mythologies with respect to the causes of the Palestinian refugee crisis, including: Arab armies ordered the Palestinian refugees to flee; Arab radio broadcasts ordered the Palestinians to leave; Palestinians do not originally come from Palestine; the refugee crisis was the result of a war started by Arabs.

These mythologies have been debunked not only by newspaper reports (the New York Times in particular), U.N. documents and Palestinian sources, but also by Israeli historians such as Benny Morris or, more recently, Illan Pappe.

Most importantly, even if such theories were true, none negates the Palestinian right of return: under international law, refugees have the right to return regardless of the circumstances through which they became refugees.

5- Why are there Palestinian refugees in Israel?

In 1948, approximately 32,000 Palestinians left their homes but remained within the borders of what became Israel. These Palest inians have never been allowed to return to their homes and villages in Israel, despite the fact that they are Israeli citizens. Their homes, like the homes of other Palestinian refugees, were either demolished or given to Jewish immigrants

6- What happened to the property of the Palestinian refugees?

Following the 1948 war, more than 400 Palestinian villages and towns were destroyed or resettled by Jewish immigrants in an attempt to erase any evidence of a non-Jewish history and attachment to Palestine. Some destroyed Palestinian villages were rebuilt as Jewish towns and given Hebrew names. Although no exact accounting of refugee property exists in Israeli records, sight surveys reveal that much of the Palestinian refugee rural property remains vacant. Nearly all of Palestinian refugee property continues to be held by the State of Israel or the Jewish National Fund. Until now, Israel has refused to discuss the restitution of these confiscated properties.
7- What are Palestinian refugees' rights according to international law?

Under international law, Palestinian refugees' rights are entitled to the following:

- the recognition of Israel's responsibility in the creation and continuation of the refugee issue;
- the recognition and implementation of the principle of the right of return;
- the restitution of Palestinian refugee properties;
- full compensation for these properties (when restitution is not materially possible or if the refugee chooses that the losses should be repaired via compensation) , as well as compensation for the longstanding displacement and suffering of the refugees.

8- Do the Palestinian refugees have the right to return to their homes?

Yes. Under international law, civilians fleeing a war are entitled to return to their homes. The right is embodied in:

U.N Resolution 194 – (passed on 11 December 1948 and reaffirmed every year since 1948).

'…the (Palest inian) refugees wishing to return to their homes and live at peace with their neighbors should be permitted to do so at the earliest practicable date, and that compensation should be paid for the property of those choosing not to return and for loss of or damage to property which, under principles of international law or in equity, should be made good by the Governments or authorities responsible'


Universal Declaration of Human Rights, 10 December 1948 - 'Everyone has the right to leave any country, including his own, and to return to his country' (Article 13 (2)

International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination, 21 December 1965 - '…State Parties undertake to prohibit and to eliminate racial discrimination on all its forms and to guarantee the right of everyone, without distinction as to race, color, or national or ethnic origin, to equality before the law, notably in the enjoyment of… (t)he right to leave any country, incl uding one's own, and to return to one's country' (Article 5(d)(ii)).

International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, 16 December 1966 - 'No one shall be arbitrarily deprived of the right to enter his own country' (Article 12(4)).

International Practice:

In Bosnia, East Timor, Kosovo, and Rwanda refugees have had their right of return honored. In Kosovo, the right of return was considered a 'non-negotiable' issue.

9- Why haven't the Palestinian refugees been able to return to their homes in Israel?

Israel refuses to abide by international law with respect to the rights of the indigenous non-Jewish population. Israel defines itself as a 'Jewish state' and Palestinian refugees are Christians and Muslims. Jews from all over the world and even converts to Judaism are allowed to immigrate to Israel under the 'Law of Return'; but in clear demonstration of religious/ethnic discrimination, the indigenous Palestinian Muslim and Christian pop ulations are banned from returning to their homes.

10- What has the international community done about the Palestinian refugees?

The international community has largely supported the principle of the Palestinian right of return which is reaffirmed every year by the UN General Assembly.

In 1949, the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) was created; it is the primary organization responsible for the welfare of the refugees.

Nevertheless, the international community has failed to take any concrete measures to force Israel to abide by international law and allow the refugees to return.

11- Doesn't the right of return threaten Israel's 'Jewish character'?

Allowing Muslims and Christians to choose to return to their homes or not does not negate Jewish historical attachment to Israel nor does it deny the rights of Jews to immigrate to Israel. The right of return is essentially a right of choice and seeks only to address historic injustices and affirms the rights of the indigenous non-Jewish population.

12- Why can't the host countries simply absorb the Palestinian refugees?

The Palestinian refugees are not from the host countries: they are from what is now Israel and have the right to return to Israel. While some countries have granted Palestinian refugees full citizenship, acquiring rights in another country does not negate a refugee's right to return home.

13- Why can't the future Palestinian State absorb the Palestinian refugees?

Again, according to international law, including UNGA Resolution 194, Palestinian refugees have a right to choose whether to return to their original homes or resettle elsewhere. For the 1948 refugees, resettlement in the Palestinian state may be an attractive option but providing refugees with such an option cannot preclude their right to return.

14- Is property restitution realistic in this case?

Under international law, refu gees, like any other person wrongfully deprived of property, are entitled to restitution. Palestinian refugees have the right to recover their properties. It is only if such restitution is materially impossible or if the refugee chooses that he should be compensated for his/her losses, that compensation should be provided.

The right to restitution is independent of the right to return so that even if a refugee chooses not to return he remains entitled to claim his property. The fact that a great extent of refugee property remains unsettled or vacant means that it would be materially possible to provide restitution in this case. At the very least, refugees should be given the choice as to how they want to resolve their property claims, irrespective of whether they return to what is now Israel.

15- Can't the Palestinian refugee crisis be resolved through financial compensation to alleviate the poverty?

The term 'refugee' does not refer to economic status – it is a legal status: financially successful refugees who have obtained citizenship in other countries are still refugees and still have, for instance, the right to return. Compensation is only one of the remedies to which refugees are entitled. Compensation is therefore necessary but not sufficient to resolve the issue.

16- How has the issue of refugees been addressed in negotiations with Israel?

In 1948, immediately following the adoption of UNGA Resolution 194, Israeli leaders did not reject the Resolution or the right of return or restitution. Instead they sought to delay addressing these matters until a comprehensive peace with Arab states was possible.

At Camp David, in 2000, Israel refused to discuss the rights of the Palestinian refugees, arguing that it bore no responsibility for the refugee problem or its solution. At the Taba negotiations, Israel continued to press for an abandonment of the right of return.

In 2002, the Arab Peace Ini tiative called for 'A just solution to the Palestinian refugee problem to be agreed upon in accordance with UN General Assembly Resolution 194'.

This position represents a willingness on the part of the PLO to consider the legitimate interests and concerns of all stakeholders involved in the matter, including Israel's. Despite Palestinian overtures to discuss Israeli interests, Israel leaders continue to reject acknowledging their responsibility or addressing the rights of the refugees. In an interview given to the Jerusalem Post on 30 March 2008, Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert reiterated that Israel will not accept the return to Israel of any refugees and refused to recognize any responsibility in this regard.

17- How can the 60 year plight of the Palestinian refugees be resolved?

While complex, the Palestinian refugee issue can be resolved in accordance to international law. In practice, this would mean the following:

The recognition of Isr ael's responsibility for the creation and continuation of the refugee issue.

The displacement of the civilian population in time of war is an illegal act in contravention of international law and human rights. Israel was responsible for the displacement and dispossession of the refugees in the first place and then for the subsequent prevention of their return to their homes.

Israel will have to recognize formally its primary responsibility for the Palestinian displacement and dispossession. This formal apology is a right according to international law and is essential for the satisfaction of Palestinian refugees.

The recognition that Palestinian refugees and their descendants have the right to return to their homes in principle.

United Nations General Assembly Resolution 194 is unequivocal in mandating that 'the refugees wishing to return to their homes and live in peace with their neighbors should be allowed to do so'.

In recent years , the right of refugees to return to their homes has been recognized by the international community and put into practice in numerous instances, some of the most notable being in Bosnia and Kosovo.

The modalities of the implementation of this right will be worked out in negotiations.

Palestinian refugees must be given the option to exercise their right of return, though refugees may prefer other options such as:

resettlement in third countries,
resettlement in a new independent Palestine (even though they originate from that part of Palestine which became Israel), or
normalization of their legal status in the host country where they currently reside.

What is important is that refugees decide for themselves which option they prefer – a decision must not be imposed on them. This is a principle which is clearly established under international law and respected by international practice.

The recognition of the right for the restitut ion of the properties lost by Palestinians.

According to international law, restitution is the primary remedy to repair a loss. It is only if restitution is practically impossible (or if the victim of the loss prefers compensation to restitution) that compensation should be made available.

Compensation should be provided in full:

for material damages (Real Estate properties, movable assets, loss of livelihood), and
non-material damages: compensation as a result of the longstanding displacement and suffering.

60 YEARS: AND THEY MUST BE UP TO IT!!
Translations available in: English (original) | French | Spanish | Italian | German | Portuguese | Swedish | Russian | Dutch | Arabic

This year is not like any other year, because it commemorates the 60th anniversary of the Palestinian Nakba (Catastrophe) in 1948, the year in which the terrorist Zionist Jewish militias committed their ethnic cleansing crimes against the Palestinians, slaughtering thousands, erasing more than 530 towns and villages of the map, and expelling around 750,000 Palestinians out of their homeland.

It is not like any other year, because the Zionists in the UK and worldwide are unashamedly celebrating the 60th anniversary of the creation of the illegal Zionist state “Israel” in Palestine. This year is about voicing out our support of the Palestinians and their just cause, defending their rights of freedom and sovereignty on their land, and standing up for the right of 7 million Palestinian refugees to return to their homes in Palestine.

The military occupation of the West Bank and Gaza Strip, the Apartheid policies imposed on the Palestinians and the starvation of the 1.4 million Palestinians inhabiting the open-air prison of Gaza are enough of a proof that the Israeli genocide that started 60 years ago against the Palestinians has never stopped. It is time for us to say it loud and clear: ENOUGH of Occupation, ENOUGH of Apartheid, ENOUGH of Ethnic Cleansing and Genocide.
