A Little Robbery, Like a Little Pregnant
by Housewife4Palestine
Most people when they focus on Palestine, think only of the war and the brutality which is constantly going on; but many do not know that when the IDF raids into a Palestinian village they often times not just show their force but also commit robbery of Palestinian homes.
It is like what ever the Palestinians have, the Israeli’s take!
I had forgotten being a refugee, that this was going on still I am sad to say; I was reminded not long ago by one of my husband’s cousins to this fact and how a forty year old door was damaged as it was forced open by the IDF for the sole purpose of robbing his home.
I will admit the picture of this cousins home is very beautiful, but to think anyone would wish to rob him and yes it was the Israeli’s, otherwise he wouldn’t have had to repair that forty year old door?
Also, I do not think people realize that going through the checkpoints especially with travel luggage, that when it is checked by the guards that often time’s you leave the checkpoint a lot lighter then when you walked up there. For if you have a piece of nice jewelry or that comfortable sweater that you wouldn’t ever wish to part with and the guards like it, you my as well say good-bye; because it is gone.
Low and behold, the guards have a new sweater or a nice piece of jewelry?

Attention! All Bloggers for Implementation of Right of Return
The Root of the Conflict
If you are an advocate for the implementation of the Palestinians' inalienable right to return as stated in Article 13, Section 2 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, "Everyone has the right to leave any country, including his own, and to return to his country,"
leave a comment or write nancyharb2001@yahoo.com and I will link [again in some cases]to your blog as one that advocates for the implementation of the Palestinians' inalienable right to return home (thanks to Annie for the idea).

Actually I do agree with what you are saying, especially since I am a Palestinian refugee.
I always believe that we should be able to go home and live in a free country.
I am so sorry that I started the conversation awkwardly- just did a cut and paste explaining the right of return blog ring. It's just I don't know how else to explain. i would really like for you to be included as I have noticed you have some really great posts. For now almost every evening I go to the blogs in the ring and gather up what I like and post it as the "Right of Return Ring of blogs" on my own blog.
would you like to be included ?
Yes, because what I saw on the link you supplied me; I feel what you are doing is very good.
Thank you for thinking of me and asking me.
As for the apology, their was no need; just we both was a little awkward, I think.
Please take care.
wonderful !
and thanks :)
you'll find that when compliling I do not include all posts- just ones that I feel firmly support the right of return.
Anne dear, you are very welcome and thank you very much for contacting me; it is my hope that one day all us who are Palestinian, may go home.
