I just hope you know that even though there arent many comments left by readers, alot of people are reading ARE reading your blog..
How much does this limit the people from grazing their flocks? Is there farm land included too? Do Tuwani's villagers have deeds to this land? Are they ever shown the orders in Arabic? So many questions, I know. Like why doesn't the world care???
such good questions, alajnabiya. I'll answer all of them, but now I've got to get some sleep before I fly to chicago tomorrow.
Hey, just found your blog.
Is anybody looking for some positive actions?
There is a new initiative for Palestinian refugees/diaspora to vote, also linking voter registration to ancestral towns/villages:
www.phl-ocv.net
Approx 2 million+ voters
How about asking the question: 'When will Palestinian politicians give a date for voter registration of Palestinian refugees/diaspora? also linking to ancestral towns/villages?'.
Maybe also organising elections 1 week before elections for the Knesset!
Thanks, ren_crow. I really appreciate the encouragement.
