  ministry eventually grinding to a halt

• While worldwide attempts continue in an effort to
  moderate Hamas and have it agree to negotiate
  with Israel, Hamas issues a bellicose "Nakba Day"
  proclamation rendering all such efforts moot.
•  
• The Arabs of the Palestinian Authority PA
  commemorate May 15the date of the end of the
  British Mandate in 1948, which made room for the
  formation of the State of Israelas their "Nakba
  Day," or Day of Catastrophe. The Hamas terrorist
  movement, which now controls the PA after an
  overwhelming popular election victory earlier
  this year, issued its Nakba Day proclamation
  May15, effectively putting to rest any chances
  for peace with Israel.

36

• The Hamas announcement emphasizes the justness of
  terrorism against Israel, as well as the
  unyielding nature of its demand for the return of
  millions of Arabs to Israel. It repeats, several
  times, the claim that the Arabs were cruelly
  thrown out of their homes by Israel in 1948when
  in fact the largest number of Arab refugees fled
  only at the urging of their own leaders, who
  promised them a swift victory over the fledgling
  Jewish state and a quick return to their homes.

37

• Arab League Secretary-General Habib Issa said in
  June 1951 that his predecessor Azzam Pasha had
  "assured the Arab peoples that the occupation of
  Palestine and of Tel Aviv would be as simple as a
  military promenade...and that all the millions
  the Jews had spent on land and economic
  development would be easy booty, for it would be
  a simple matter to throw Jews into the
  Mediterranean..."
• In addition, the Research Group for European
  Migration Problems found in 1957 that "as early
  as the first months of 1948, the Arab League
  issued orders exhorting the people to seek a
  temporary refuge in neighboring countries, later
  to return to their abodes...and obtain their
  share of abandoned Jewish property."
• Abu Mazen himselfnow the chairman of the
  PAwrote in 1976, "The Arab states succeeded in
  scattering the Palestinian people and in
  destroying their unity. They did not recognize
  them as a unified people until the states of the
  world did so, and this is regrettable."
• Time Magazine, on May 3, 1948, described the Arab
  flight from Haifa "The mass evacuation, prompted
  partly by fear, partly by order of Arab leaders,
  left the Arab quarter of Haifa a ghost city...by
  withdrawing Arab workers their leaders hoped to
  paralyze Haifa."
• Monsignor George Hakim, the Greek Catholic Bishop
  of Galilee, said in 1949 that the Arabs of Haifa
  "fled in spite of the fact that the Jewish
  authorities guaranteed their safety and rights as
  citizens of Israel."
• Even a British police commander in Haifa said in
  April 1948, "Every effort is being made by the
  Jews to persuade the Arab populace to stay and
  carry on with their normal lives, to get their
  shops and businesses open and to be assured that
  their lives and interests will be safe."

38

• Every year, as the date of Israel's Independence
  (May 15) approaches, Palestinian Authority PA
  TV broadcasts numerous programs and video clips
  to mourn Israel's creationwhat they call the
  "Nakba," the catastrophe. The recurring themes
  are the denial of Israel's right to exist and the
  call for the undoing of "the catastrophe"a
  euphemism for Israel's destruction.

39

• This year's recurring clip shows the map of
  Israelentitled "Palestine"scrolling slowly down
  the screen. The date 1948the year of Israel's
  establishmentrepeatedly appears on the screen,
  behind bars. At the end of the clip an old woman
  is shown, while the words on the screen read
  "Palestine is the land of my forefathers. LEAVE
  IT." - 2006

• Israel again proves it's only interested in
  domination, not negotiation. It's odd that Jews
  Israeli Arabs seem to live ok in some parts of
  Israel. Also Jews Arabs live in peace in my
  home town (there are many at uni). There are
  Jewish people living all over the Arab world
  even in Iran! I think the problem lies with
  Israeli government's separation policy in the
  West Bank ie. Arabs living in refugee camps
  whilst Isralis live in closed settlements. Note
  another word 4 separation is Apartheid

• Can any "peace" hold over there? It's just
  another very brief break in a much larger and
  longer blood feud. Somewhere along the line, we
  have to hope individuals will step forward from
  both the Arab/Muslim world and Israel to work for
  a just compromise for all their peoples- and the
  entire world, which has now been pulled along
  into this maelstrom as never before. Let's worry
  less about any new "Messiah" or "Second Coming",
  and worry more about finding some peacebuilders-
  for all our sakes.

  civilians in the name of self defense. The cheek

• It now becomes clear why Lebanon is in the mess
  it is in. It has to depend on terrorists for

• I am really surprised at the ignorance of many
  readers. while commenting they forget a few very
  basic facts which areIsrael is an is in
  occupation of arab lands since 1967 and so called
  terrorists fighting Israel are freedom fighters
  trying to get their lands and homes liberated.
  True, some radical elements call for destruction
  of Israel but the majority is willing to make
  peace if Israel finishes its occupation. So this
  conflict will continue and breed new terrorists
  till Israeli vacates.
