Protesters wave Palestinian flags as they march towards the Erez border crossing in the northern Gaza Strip on May 15, 2011 to mark the "Nakba" or "Catastrophe" anniversary of Israel's creation in 1948, as a result of which more than 760,000 Palestinians -- estimated today to number 4.7 million with their descendants -- were pushed into exile or driven out of their homes.

This photo is to illustrate the infrastructure in the West Bank. Although there may be many refugee camps in Palestine, they are not tradtional camps with tents as you witness in Africa. Instead, they are more permanent delapidated buildings funded by the UN and arab countries such as Saudi Arabia. Many of them bear the brunt of the 2005 Intafada, with bullet holes and shrapnel alike as this northern region was desimated by Israel due to its high resistance to the occupation.
I took these photos in 2009. This trash heap is on the Temple Mount, Jerusalem. You can see age old, historical wooden pillars there just laying around among other garbage. Very nice. :(

The Palestinians in Gaza call the situation The Great Right of Return March. They want to return to their homeland which was taken from them beginning 70 years ago in what they refer to as 'The Nakba' or catastrophe. Zionist forces drove them off of their land in Palestine killing thousands and turning thousands more into permanent refugees.
Today, the Gaza Strip is the world's largest open air prison. Two million people live a precarious and extremely dangerous existence there. Israel controls everything they do. Israel controls all access to the strip including air, land and seat routes. Unemployment levels are around 60% of able bodied males. Israel allows but four hours of electricity per day. The situation is comparable to that of the Warsaw Ghetto during World War Two.
So the people are marching towards the border wall that encloses them. Israeli snipers routinely shoot women, children, members of the press wearing identifying vests, nurses trying to help the wounded, even an 8 month old child. The snipers use bullets that explode on contact with human flesh and bone. In Israel this is called ' Mowing the Lawn '.
Israel says these unarmed people are just 'terrorists'.provoked by the resistance organization called Hamas..
Yet still these people march towards the border wall. They want their freedom and to live with dignity and opportunity again. So far around 123 people have been shot dead and hundreds more wounded.
As the birthplace of Jesus Christ (pbuh), the charming town of Bethlehem has a sweeter meaning to Christians than any other place on earth. This small rose-colored town has been thrust onto the world stage, its name conjuring up images of the infant Jesus, the Magi and the shepherds coming to worship. Bethlehem is indeed the Cardle of Christianity
Embroidery (Tatreez) is the most indigenous form of art in Palestine. It is a language for expression. The most common items are the cross-stitch-embroidered dressess made by village women from natural handmade materials. The earliest embroidery combines predominantly geometric and abstract patterns (triangles, eight pointed stars, chevrons, squares, lozenges) with some representational motifs such as flowers and trees. Later, other motifs were introduced as a result of influences and historical events.

Palestinian children wait to receive water as they stand on the rubble of a destroyed mosque in Beit Lahiya in the northern Gaza Strip January 20, 2009. Israel planned to complete a troop pullout from Gaza before Barack Obama's inauguration on Tuesday, Israeli political sources said, in what analysts saw as an effort to avoid any tension with the new U.S. president. With a ceasefire entering its third day, U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon planned to visit the Hamas-ruled Gaza Strip and view first-hand the devastation of a 22-day Israeli offensive.

Loay a 9-year-old Palestinian boy sets in a makeshift hut where he and other children stay as they search through garbage at a dump near the West Bank city of Hebron, hoping to find something valuable. Palestinian children regularly sift through the garbage looking for clothes, metal and any other object thrown out that might be useful or could be sold. The Palestinian economy is in dire straits and poverty is rife, leaving many people desperate for any chance of making ends meet.

Info: The Gaza refugee camp in Jerash, Jordan is home to 24,000-34,000 Palestinian refugees who fled from Gaza, Palestine in 1948 and 1967. Unlike Palestinian refugees from other districts of Palestine, the Palestinians in the Gaza refugee camp are considered persona non grata in Jordan (i.e. they are denied an identity, not granted identification papers and, therefore, denied the right to work and travel freely throughout the country). Most Jordanians and Palestinians living in the capital of Amman remain unaware of the Palestinians in the Gaza refugee camp prompting many experts to describe these refugees as the "Forgotten Ones". The photos above provide a glimpse into the living conditions many of these refugees have had to contend with given the lack of political, social, and economic options at their disposal.

working with palestinian children on a project that consist of teaching them how to use cameras. then to give them one in order to film the environment in which they are living...almost all of these kids are coming from Naher al Bared camp, that witnessed for months very aggressive hostilities between the lebanese army and Fateh al Islam. these kids lost almost everything..although for the majority of them it's the first time they touch a camra...you will be surprised by their hidden skills and unseen potentials... some of them made amazing photos that will be collected for sure in a book...
amazing what these kids are able to do...you just have to give them the chance...
cheers
