WRITTEN BY Salim Nazzal – At the beginning I got “strange” e-mails which hinted towards assassination and the like. The Zionist character in these e-mails was obvious. I simply paid no attention. I know Zionists fear the voice of the victims. My voice is the voice of my people who were murdered and uprooted from [...]
A contribution to Palestine Think Tank's and Tlaxcala's First Word War
Numerous books and articles have been written, guided by the main thesis that the reason for the prolonged and intractable conflict between Israel and Palestine, and which is constantly at an impasse, is that there are two “contested” histories (of Jews and Arabs in Palestine!), [...]
Two years ago today Dr. George Habash’s body left us, and since then, many books have been published about this legend El Hakeem (the doctor and the wise in Arabic), who became a beacon to freedom fighters worldwide and an Icon of steadfastness for humanity, democracy and goodwill.

I recently finished reading Richard Dawkins' The God Delusion, in which Dawkins presents his arguments not only against the existence of God but affirmatively for an affirmation in atheism, tackling such subjects as "is religion the source of morality?" and "is religion actually a bad thing?"

This song is dedicated to Basem Abu Rahme, 29 years old, who was non-violently protesting the theft of his village's farmlands and was shot dead by the Israeli Occupation Forces.
