  • So how are you celebrating the Palestinian independance day? (9/13)

    Today is the Palestinian independance day, I was reminded when I awoke from my sleep, following loud explosions and crackle.

    The Israeli-arabs in Haifa organized a mid-scale firework and firecrackers display that is lasting for several hours now.

    This day is celebrated by Israeli arab palestinans and by the Palestinains each year.

    What are you doing to celebrate the occassion?

      I'll celebrate it when they really become independant .

          I hadn't even known it was palestinian independance day. Given the fact that i'm not palestinian by any definition of the word, I think i'll skip out on the celebrations (again) this year.

              What independence?
              And what is there to celebrate?

                Independance from whom? The British? Or was it France? who controlled Palestine before WWII?

                  That would be Britain.

                      Did France celebrated Bastille's Day during the german occupation ?
                      Fireworks made by Israeli (ie bombing) are more impressive than those fired by Palestine, I bet.

                            They will unfortunately wont be able to call me an antisemite, since both Palestinians and Jewish are semites.

                            Semite, from Sem, Noah's son : who belong to a group of people of Middle East speaking or who have spoke in Antic ages semitic languages (Akkadian, Assyrobabylonians, Amorrites, Arameans, Phenicians, Arabs, Hebrews, Ethiopians)
