'Imwas - عمواس: General view of our beautiful village in 1958 - before destruction. Click here to see the scale of the Israeli destruction in the next picture. Picture Taken By Pierre Medebielle

عمواس بترفع الراس

حتى لا ننسى قرآنا المهجرة وتاريخ فلسطين انشئت منتدى ياسم شباب عمواس

ليت الزمان يعود يوما فأخبر الشباب بما فعل المشيب
ويا ليت العود قريب

عيوننا تشتاق اليك يا عمواس .........
الرجاء ممن لديه صور اخرى ارسالها على هذه الصفحة

I'm also from the US, and it's true- the news we get here is usually very slanted in favor of Israel, except thankfully recently, the truth is starting to get out. I really do think it's thanks to the internet, footage taken with cell phones of schools being attacked with white phosphorus, people getting shot outside mosques-

When I was younger, in the 80s, I knew some Palestinians who had come over- telling me of the horrors that went on over there, curfews that just didn't let any Palestinians onto the streets, under penalty of death- that lasted so long people had to venture out or they and their families would starve. Someone I knew lost his grandmother that way.

Later I spoke to a few Americans who had gone over during that period, because Americans were allowed to leave the buildings, just not the Palestinians. They would split up, 1 American to each building, and they would do all the grocery shopping that building needed. Innocents would be mowed down on the streets.

That stuff isn't common knowledge here, and I was always shocked that never really came out- however, more is. The items banned by the blockade just came out- with lists of items we find to be mandatory just having been allowed in. (Like wheat and house cleaning supplies)

The destruction is nauseating, and I agree with Noor al Haqiqa, this is being done to destroy any tangible ties to their history, their past, anything that people can look at and be proud of their heritage. It's horrendous that this continues, and is allowed to continue.

They want nothing to remain so that no one has anything to remember. They want the old to die and take their memories with them. They want the young to never know what was stolen from them. They want those away to never return. They want to kill the country then move on to the next one. If they kill many goyim in the process, then their bloodthirsty Talmudic satanic god is pleased with them. They are despicable.

ساعود يا قدس الحبيبة
ساعود يا ام البطل
ساعود لا لا لن اغيبا
و الروح تناديني ارحل
ساناضل ساقاتل لأعود مع طفل الحجر

I knew my place today from pictures but i sew ow much important for them to distroy everything

We are Bay Area Women in Black and would like to use your photos on our handouts to illustrate the destruction of life against which we conduct our weekly vigils.

لموقع جيد وباي

لا حول ولا قوت الا بالله حسبي الله ونعم الوكيل على هذا الصمت الكاسر الذي لا حراك له ولا حول ولا قوة منه لقد دمرت فلسطين

لا حول ولا فوة الا بالله

هل شاهتم التواطىء العربي
والصمت المدمي على مذبحت غزه

It is not only distroying town and villeges ,but as well the remove even palestine from the map.

Picture 1 and 2 comparison is very disturbing. We, in the US, only get the Jewish viewpoint of the Middle East. Thanks. I have been enlightened.
