At this critical moment in our history (where refugees' right of return is under vicious attacks to liquidate it), we feel it is VERY important to share these movies with your loved ones and friends. It should be noted that this project is in its infancy, and we are in need of you help an assistance to kick start this project on much larger scale. So any donation you may give, will have incredible return for generations to come.
Over 600 Oral History interviews (including 3,000+ hours of recording) can be viewed now online.

The following quotation is for Aaron below, 15 May 2010. I is quotations from declassified Israeli files and from personal diaries of Israeli participants in the massacres and expulsions.
When the First Truce ended, Operation Dani headquarters (near Ramle and Lydda) informed the Israeli General Staff on July 10 1948:
"a general and considerable [civilian] flight from Ramle. There is great value in continuing the bombing." During the afternoon, the headquarters asked the General Staff for renewed bombing, and informed one of the brigades: "Flight from the town of Ramle of women, the old, and children is to be facilitated. The [military age] males are to be detained." (Benny Morris, p. 204)
Soon after the Lydda massacre was carried out by the Israeli Army Yiftah Brigade on July 10, 1948, Mula Cohen (the brigade's commander) wrote of his experience when expelling the 50,000-60,000 Palestinians who inhabited Ramle and Lydda:
"There is no doubt the Lydda-Ramle affair and the flight of the inhabitants, the uprising and the expulsion [geirush in Hebrew] that followed cut deep grooves in all who underwent [these experiences]." (Benny Morris, p. 206)
Yitzhak Rabbin, the commander of Operation Dani in Ramle area, communicated the following explicit orders at 1:30 PM on July 12, 1948 to Yiftah Brigade (see above quote):
"1. The inhabitants of Lydda must be expelled quickly without attention to age. They should be directed towards Beit Nabala. Yiftah [Brigade headquarters] must determine the method and inform [Operation] Dani HQ and the 8th Brigade.
2. Implement immediately." The order was signed "Yitzhak R[abin]." A similar order, concerning Ramle, was apparently communicated to Kiryati Brigade headquarters at the same time. (Benny Morris, p. 207)
Thank you for the great site of Palestine Remembered and for this opportunity to be able to communicate. I also thank those who participated in all activities to remeber those villages.
I am from Beit Nuba, I took my children to visit and they will never forget the experince we went through that day. The love to the land increases every day and we shall keep the memories a live.
Best,
Samira Bint Abu Ali.
AsalamOlakum,

Thanks
Unfourtunately,I havent found anything related to (Imwas) on this website...
Thank you.
Unfortunately, the Zionism has great influence all over the globe. They have utilized and employed this influence to block the truth from being known about the true story about Palestine and the Palestinians. Therefore, I would encourage whoever has no knowledge about the Palestinian and Israeli conflict to seek the truth.
Moreover, I have a firm belief that every Palestinian, every Arab, Every Muslim and every good human being on this earth must help to get the story to be known to every one all over the world. All nations hate occupations. All people hate criminals and crimes. How about the world's nations knowing the truth of our cause and true history of our conflict. I am sure the public opinion around the globe someday will be the greatest power that will count on. No one can fight the nations of the world.
Victory and only Victory that Palestinians should think about regardless of how much the sacrifice will be.
