The History of Palestine
History of Palestine Zionism arrived in Palestine in the late 19th as a colonialist movement motivated by national impulses. The colonisation of Palestine fitted well the interests and policies of the British Empire on the eve of the First World War. With the backing of Britain, the colonisation project expanded, and became a solid presence on the land after the war and with the establishment of the British mandate in Palestine (which lasted between 1918 and 1948). While this consolidation took place, the indigenous society underwent, like other societies in the rest of the Arab world, a steady process of establishing a national identity. But with one difference. While the rest of the Arab world was shaping its political identity through the struggle against European colonialism, in Palestine nationalism meant asserting your collective identity against both an exploitative British colonialism and expansionist Zionism. Thus, the conflict with Zionism was an additional burden. The pro-Zionist policy of the British mandate there naturally strained the relationship between Britain and the local Palestinian society. This climaxed in a revolt in 1936 against both London and the expanding Zionist colonisation project. The revolt, which lasted for three years, failed to sway the British mandate from a policy it had already decided upon in 1917. The British foreign secretary, Lord Balfour, had promised the Zionist leaders that Britain would help the movement to build a homeland ...

The Israeli Palestinian Conflict: Myths and Facts
Exploring some of the myths spread by the Arab-Palestinian propaganda machine. This clip explores the times from the fall of the Ottoman empire after the first World War, through the British Mandate over Palestine, the agreement to establish a Jewish homeland, the partition of trans-Jordan from Palestine, the 1947 UN partition plan and the 1948 war after Israel declared its independence. Later it goes to more recent events such as the withdrawal from Lebanon and from Gaza which made Israel suffer relentless attacks from the Arab side, not in the name of nationalism but in the name of the religion of Islam.

Machon Ayalon in Givat Hakibbutzim, a hidden entry behind the Bakery Oven to a secret underground ammunition factory. Operated during the British Mandate in Palestine 1940s -2/5 www.shimur.org This site presents the story of a secret factory that manufactured ammunition, built underneath a limestone hill. On the surface it was used for training groups of young people (garinim) for Kibbutz life. It was built and operated during the years 1946-1948. Established by the "Haganah", the largest Jewish underground movement during the British Mandate. This factory would develop into what is today called IMI (Israel Military Industries) or "TAAS". This special clandestine factory was prepared secretly in less than a month, 8 meters (25 feet) underground. Its openings were covered by a 10 ton oven and a large washing machine that camouflaged the noise of manufacturing bullets. The Ayalon institute was the largest IMI factory to operate underground and produced over 2500000 9mm bullets mostly for Sten guns during its two years of operation. en.wikipedia.org www.attractions-in-israel.com TilTul tiltul.com LinksYouWantToRemember CIMG3082.MOV

The British Mandate for Palestine - September, 1922
The political interests of colonial powers and the ill feeling between the Jews and Arabs gave birth to the most intense geopolitical problem of the Twenty First Century - the Middle East crisis. While we remember September 11 today as the date for the attack on the United States by Al Qaeda, there has been conjecture that the choice of date could not have been coincidental. The British Mandate for Palestine ("the Mandate") began on this date in 1922. In September 1922, the Mandate resulted in political, social, and religious disturbance in the area. The region was divided into two administrative areas - one named Palestine, which was under British control and the second named Transjordan, which is presently under Saudi Arabia. Palestine had Jewish and Arabic communities living together. In the early Twentieth Century, the Ottoman Empire extended up to the Mediterranean and the Middle East. Various Arabic tribes dreamt of establishing an Arabic nation. Britain cashed in on the aspirations of the Arabs by entering into an agreement with Husayn, the governor of Mecca and Medina. As per the agreement, the Arabs would lead a revolt against the Ottoman Empire, and would get the Arab nation. The revolt was successful and resulted in the defeat of the Ottoman Empire, but the Arab nation was not established because this was not the only agreement that Britain had entered into. In order to receive Jewish support for the First World War, England had promised the Jews a nation in ...

Palestine Railways, Battir station part 1, British mandate train
Palestine Railways [1892-1948] - بتير Jaffa and Jerusalem Railway, Crossing the territory of Battir village is a railway which connects Jerusalem with Jafa, and can then move them to many of the Palestinian territories through a network of railways, and gained a reputation for the village as the last stop of the train to Jerusalem, was having its center of a neighboring villagers who wish to travel to Jerusalem to visit, work or sell their products in the same way and then return to the village and from there to the neighboring villages. The Battir inhabitants have preserved a traditional agriculture of growing fruit trees and vegetables on the terraces. The water is carried by a system of channels from the ancient spring at the center of the village. When the railway was constructed in the region, part of the lands of Battir remained on the other side of the railway and after the 1948 war remained in Israeli territory, while the village itself and the adjacent lands were in Palestinian territory, (under Jordanian mandate). In the framework of the Rhodes armistice agreements of 1949, Israel signed an agreement with Jordan under which the railway remained within Israeli territory but the Battir villagers could continue to hold their lands inside Israel. A short while later, it was also agreed that the villagers would be free to cultivate their lands on both sides of the railway. This arrangement persisted over the years until the second Intifadah. There was no barrier ...

Epilogue-Zeina Ghandour's "A Discourse on Domination in Mandate of Palestine"-12-27-2010-(Part1)
www.presstv.com Following the collapse of the Ottoman Empire in 1920, British mandate for Palestine was created by the League of Nations. Mandate Palestine was an instrument for administration of Palestine which came into effect in 1923. Two states were established based on the mandate of the territory: Palestine and trans-Jordan. The mandate created the first resistance to the Anglo-Zionism colonialism. The issue is subjected to a book written by Zeina Ghandour: "A Discourse on Domination in Mandate of Palestine" which will be discussing by Derek Conway and his guests, Daud Abdullah and David Charles, in this episode of Press TV's Epilogue.

Theme From Exodus by Ferrante & Teicher!
Exodus is a 1960 epic war film made by Alpha and Carlyle Productions and distributed by United Artists. It was produced and directed by Otto Preminger from a screenplay by Dalton Trumbo from the 1958 novel, Exodus, by Leon Uris. The Super Panavision 70 cinematography was by Sam Leavitt. The music, including the famous title theme, was written by Ernest Gold.
The film stars Paul Newman, Eva Marie Saint, Ralph Richardson, Peter Lawford, Lee J. Cobb, Sal Mineo, John Derek, Hugh Griffith, Gregory Ratoff, Felix Aylmer, David Opatoshu, Alexandra Stewart, Jill Haworth, Marius Goring, Victor Maddern and George Maharis.
Director Otto Preminger helped to end the stigma of the Hollywood blacklist by hiring Dalton Trumbo to adapt the screenplay for the film. The movie was shot entirely on location in Cyprus and Israel.
Summary:
The film is based on the events that happened on the ship Exodus in 1947 and dealing with the founding of the state of Israel in 1948.
Nurse Katherine "Kitty" Fremont (Eva Marie Saint) is an American volunteer at the Karaolos Internment on Cyprus, where thousands of Jews - Holocaust survivors - are being held, as they have no homeland to return to. They anxiously wait the day they will be liberated. Ari Ben Canaan (Paul Newman), a Haganah rebel who previously was a captain in the Jewish Brigade of the British Army in World War II, obtains a cargo ship and is able to smuggle 611 Jewish inmates out of the camp for an illegal voyage to Mandate Palestine before being discovered by military authorities. When the British find out that the refugees are in a ship in the harbor of Famagusta, they blockade the harbor. The refugees stage a hunger strike, during which the camp's doctor dies, and Ari threatens to blow up the ship and the refugees. The British relent and allow the Exodus safe passage.
Meanwhile, Kitty has grown very fond of Karen Hansen (Jill Haworth), a young Danish-Jewish girl searching for her father, from whom she was separated during the war. She has taken up the Zionist cause, much to the chagrin of Kitty, who had hoped to take young Karen to America so that she can begin a new life there.

Another notable version was recorded by jazz saxophonist Eddie Harris. Other versions were recorded by Mantovani, Peter Nero, Connie Francis, and the Duprees, who sang the theme with lyrics written by Pat Boone. Other artists include Gospel pianist Anthony Burger (in the Gaither Vocal Band's "I Do Believe"), singer Edith Piaf who used French lyrics, Classical pianist Maksim Mrvica. Trey Spruance of the Secret Chiefs 3 rescored the theme for "surf band and orchestra" on the album 2004 Book of Horizons. Howard Stern uses it for comedic effect when discussing aspects of Jewish life. Different samples of the Exodus theme have been used in several hip-hop songs, including Ice-T´s song "Ice's Exodus" from the album The Seventh Deadly Sin, Nas's song "You're Da Man" from the album Stillmatic, and T.I.'s song "Bankhead" from the album King. A portion of the main title was included in a montage arranged by composer John Williams and performed at the 2002 Academy Awards ceremony.

Seawall - A play by three authors - Acre Fringe Festival, October 2009
Introduction – the setting of the play: Akka, Palestine, 1947
For more than twenty years, between 1920 and 1947, the ancient Acre Prison was home to Palestine's most feared political prisoners. They were sent there, tens of Jews and hundreds of Palestinians, by the British forces in control of Palestine. Many of the prisoners were hanged to die within the stone walls, which overlook the Mediterranean.
Britain, by the mandate given to them by the League of Nations in 1922, was to "be responsible for placing the country under such political, administrative and economic conditions as will secure the establishment of the Jewish national home… and also for safeguarding the civil and religious rights of all the inhabitants of Palestine, irrespective of race and religion".
In fact, the British forces quickly found themselves hounded by both "sides" – which viewed them, arguably justfiably so, as a colonizing entity with no business being there in the first place. It is in this period of history that the seeds of Jewish and Palestinian nationalism –and conflict – rapidly grew and flourished. Prisonders were hanged to die – and national heroes were born. The British tried to supress these sentiments with an iron first – but failed. The Empire was fading fast.
During this brief period, Jews and Palestinians did not only fight eachother- but also a common enemy. Alliagnces were made but also quickly broken. Visions of the future of Palestine– Jewish, Palestinian and British – violently colided. The stakes were the highest possible, for all inolved: complete victory or complete defeat.
The play
"Seawall" is a triangle of stories, which embody the three histories of Palestine:
a. Michael Danziger, a Poland born Jew and Zioinst militant. His involvetment in a violent attack on a British installation results in a death sentence. He is about to be exectued in the Acre prison.
b. (Nameless), a young Palestinain haunted by visions of eventual death and tragedy. He tries in vain to escape his tragic fate and is caught with a weapon. He too is sent to the Acre prison, and is sentenced to die.
c. William Hughes, a young officer at the Acre prison. Struggles to maintain his lofty ideas about the British mission, despite being surrounded by grim and tragic events. William is to execute to the two prisondes mentioned above.
The process, additional funding
"Seawall" was co-written by three writers: a Jewish-Israeli, a Palestinian, and a British. It is the result of an extraordinary process including a month long residency in Acre, in May of 2009. The residency included a visit to the Acre prison, interviews with former prisoners, and also conversations with the current inhabitans of the bi-national city, which is still haunted by contradicting versions of history.
The May 2009 residency was generously funded by:
The British Council in Israel
The JCC, in London. Juliet Simmons, from the JCC, said: “We think this is an extremely important project because it emphasizes the need for dialogue and cooperation in these very difficult times.”
The Acre Theatre Centre.
The "Acre project" was conceived by Michael Ronen, the artistic director of the Conflict Zone Theater Group. The Conflict Zone Theater Group was founded in London in 2006 and has since moved to Berlin. It strives to establish a platform where people of opposing nations and different artistic backgrounds are given the opportunity to work together, thereby transforming the way conflict is expressed.

Brandon Sipes speaking at Antioch Panel - Muslims in America
Muslims in America and the Principle of Religious Freedom was the subject of a public forum sponsored by Antioch University Midwest on Sunday, September 26th, 2010.
The focus of the forum was the topic of religious freedom that is saturating current news. A range of experienced scholars, diplomats, and mediators shared their experiences and insights to assist the audience in achieving a better grasp of the issues at stake, and ways of preventing resentment, discrimination and violence, wherever it is directed. The forum offered conceptual and practical tools for gaining strength through diversity without sacrificing our most cherished values in these times of security concerns.
The panelists include:
Dr. Wayel Azmeh
Dr. Azmeh was born in Scotland and spent many of his early years in Syria where he was eventually awarded his MD Diploma from Damascus Medical School. He continued his internship and residency in France for fours years before coming to the America where he did advanced training and achieved licensure to practice in the US. After practicing for several years in Kansas, Dr. Azmeh and his wife, also a physician settled in the Dayton area where he is employed at both the group practice of Miami Valley Cardiologists and at the Dayton Department of Veterans Affairs Medical Center. Throughout his time in the US Dr. Azmeh and his wife, Dr. Ramzieh Azmeh, have been highly active lecturing on Islam and Arab Culture in diverse venues including universities, churches and synagogues. For their valuable interfaith work Dr. Azmeh and his wife have been co-recipients of two important awards: Peace Maker Award by the Kansas Institute for Peace and Conflict Resolution and the 2005 The Humanitarian Award by the National Conference for Community and Justice in Dayton. Dr. Azmeh has been a member of Dayton’s Inter-Faith Trialogue since 2003 and he has contributed lectures on Muslim Culture in The Life Long Learning series at the University of Dayton. Currently, he is a Board member of The Mercy Society/Islamic Center of Dayton and National Board member of the Muslim Public Affairs Council.
Professor Suheil Bushrui
Professor Bushrui grew up in Palestine under the British Mandate, and then pursued a major in Arab and Islamic studies at the University of Cairo. He received his Ph D in English Literature in the UK before teaching for many years at universities in the Sudan, Nigeria, Canada, and Lebanon before coming to the US 1982. Professor Bushrui is an internationally recognized author, poet, critic, and translator and currently Professor Emeritus and holder of the George and Lisa Zakhem Kahlil Gibran Chair for Values and Peace at the University of Maryland in College Park. His most recent publications in English include an up-to-date biography of Gibran entitled Kahlil
Gibran: Man and Poet and, most pertinently, The Spiritual Heritage of the Human Race: An Introduction – an expansive work that presents, on their own terms, 16 of the major faith traditions. He acted as a Senior Cultural Advisor to the President of Lebanon between 1982 and 1988 and has much experience in Muslim-Christian dialogue and reconciliation. He is a member of several international interfaith organizations. Winner of numerous awards for his service to peace and international understanding, Professor Bushrui is Senior Scholar at the Center for International Development and Conflict Management and Univ. of Maryland and is a member of the Advisory Boards of the Temple of Understanding in New York and the International Peace Museum in Dayton.
Dr. Jay Rothman

Epilogue-Zeina Ghandour's "A Discourse on Domination in Mandate of Palestine"-12-27-2010-(Part2)
www.presstv.com Following the collapse of the Ottoman Empire in 1920, British mandate for Palestine was created by the League of Nations. Mandate Palestine was an instrument for administration of Palestine which came into effect in 1923. Two states were established based on the mandate of the territory: Palestine and trans-Jordan. The mandate created the first resistance to the Anglo-Zionism colonialism. The issue is subjected to a book written by Zeina Ghandour: "A Discourse on Domination in Mandate of Palestine" which will be discussing by Derek Conway and his guests, Daud Abdullah and David Charles, in this episode of Press TV's Epilogue. Enjoy.

The Israeli Palestinian Conflict: Myths and Facts (Joniversity MIRROR)
Exploring some of the myths spread by the Arab-Palestinian propaganda machine. This clip explores the times from the fall of the Ottoman empire after the first World War, through the British Mandate over Palestine, the agreement to establish a Jewish homeland, the partition of trans-Jordan from Palestine, the 1947 UN partition plan and the 1948 war after Israel declared its independence. Later it goes to more recent events such as the withdrawal from Lebanon and from Gaza which made Israel suffer relentless attacks from the Arab side, not in the name of nationalism but in the name of the religion of Islam.

Go2Films- The Fifth Heaven- clip
1944. Palestine is under British Mandate as the Second World War rages. 13-year-old Maya arrives at an orphanage on the outskirts of Tel Aviv, her mother having deserted her and her father having remarried and finding it difficult to raise her. Dr. Markowski, the orphanage director, is stunned by her arrival; he knows her parents and is reminded of his tormented love for her mother. Maya does not easily adjust to life at the orphanage, having to fight for her place among the girls and falling in love with a 25-year-old resistance fighter engaged to one of the orphanage workers, all while attempting to piece together the puzzle of her life.

Proof of Jordan IS Palestine
Where is the Kingdom of Jordan? What is its history? Jordan was created in the part of the British Mandate of Palestine east of the Jordan River, the majority of the Mandate. It was carved out of the Mandate and given to the Hashemite tribe of Arabia as payment for the Hashemites cooperation with the British in World War I. In todays Jordan, the Hashemites are a minority, but control the state's power - the Monarchy. As a product of the British Mandate of Palestine, the majority non-Hashemite population identify themselves as 'Palestinians', or 'Southern Syrians' depending on the political climate. - Society for Rational Peace - If Jordan's majority population is Palestinian, why are we trying to give them a second homeland? Concerning Palestine East Of The River Jordan Each day brings me closer to the realization that Palestine, as it wants to exist within the boundary of Israel, and impose this view on the world community, is a farce... an imaginative place with imaginative people. History proves over and over again that JORDAN IS INDEED PALESTINE. Here are several quotes from "officials" in the so-called Palestinian community. LET THEM SPEAK FOR THEMSELVES!!!!
