i hope one day we will meet again in our homeland which we never saw but with presence of men like nassurallah we will have that dream come true

I am confidence to go back to my fatherland, just to see and smell the soil and the plant which my parents planted long time ago by their bare hands
After seeing the picture of my village I really cried with pain why we left such land to live in camps in Lebanon and suffer.
Thanks so much for this site which actually push me more s more to free my land which been taken from us by force and killing
However I am young and born in Lebanon but my heart and soul still lives over there and I tell those people shown in the pictures living there now that we do not want to hurt you as your parents done to us but I ask to leave where you come from and give back what is not for you to us peacefully

Hello.I am proud to be from Deir Al Qasi, this beautiful town of Galilee. I have lived in different countries, but I know that I belong to Deir Al Qasi, because that is my home is. And the Palestinian Cause lives on....

I was very pleased to know that this website exists and more pleased to see all your contributions. I'm very honored to belong to Dayr al Qasi (whom I know from my dad's stories) and more honored to belong to Zaher family. May god bless you for keeping Dayr al Qasi alive.

Hi all there !!!
For Sorrow all of arabs r watching and helping Isreal
SO Plz i wish one thing from my people PALESTENIANS - and that thing is to help each other all over the world and do not be bad to each others as happening PLzzzzzzzzz
I'm Palestenian From MAIROON KA3WASH ( SAFAD )
Thankx for the webmaster

Proud to be from Dayer al-qasi ...............

Well I would like to thank the people who worked on this site. And specially for searching about Dayr Al Qasi.

I think if we want to gather more accurate information about this small town, we should take if from our old people.

As I heard from my parents and family Dayr Al Qasi still including people who never mentioned in the lists.

I would suggest if we can make a committee in each country where is our people living and try to get more information that can be for our children in the future.

Thanks again,
Heba Sadeq

We have received a bit angry email from a Palestinian-Israeli who proudly identify himself as a Palestinian of Turkish descent. We have felt it is important to share and voice his opinion for democracy's sake. Webmaster Salam Alaykom: My name is Baria Hsermi, or Husremi. I am from Um Al-Faraj town, which was cleanse by the Zionist Jews in 1948. I live now in Israel (Palestine). I love this website because it talks about all the people of PALESTINE, which is a great thing, but the problem as you've said that we don't have much documents. The website should also talked about the people of Palestine and their ethnicity,... Because as you know not all Palestinians are from Arab descent, for example many Palestinians are Greeks, Turks, Armenians, Iranians, Albanians, Moroccan Arabs, Libyan Arabs, and Bosnians,.. and the Palestinian people should know about their origins; and also to show the world that the Palestinians were and are still ONE people. For example, I am from Um Al-Faraj and my mother side from Deir-ALqasi. But I don't see anything written about these people origins at all. All its written that all the Palestinians are Arabs and that's it. I am 30 years old and I remember that my father and my grandfather always telling me that the people of Um Al-Faraj were Turks after being kicked out of Egypt's ruler Mohammad Ali Pasha in the early 1800's. I am PROUD to be a Palestinian, but I think its a GREAT idea to mention where the people of Palestine came from, so we will have more documents, information,... if you guys need any information please contact me at [email protected].

The best thing of this website about Dair Al Qasi, that we let the third and fourth generation after the "Nakba" know each other and communicate, however, for now that's the best way to keep our cause alive.

Al salmo 3alaikom wa ra7mato el allah,
I'm Issa Kassab from the best country in the world, from Palastine & Deir el-Qasi. I'm now living in Kuwait, but my heart is flying to my village, Deir el-Qasi. I'm sure that we will get back, but i really don't know when. Do you know what....I hear a song coming from our hometown....can you hear it?
Sanarge3o yaowman ela 7aiena.......wa nagrako fee dafe2at el mona.......just try to repeat....

I did not know that this page will become full of the names of Deir el-Qasi people, specially some families whom i have never heared about. However, I am very excited to discover these people of my village, and I hope that we shall all return to palestine
together one day.
