a poster from my design was suggested to a Belgium tourist company that attend to send tourists to the Palestinian cities behind the wall to see the fact about what is going in land < for sorry the found it a great idea but they were afraid to adapt it because they think its shocking for the people and aggressive for others
My father i a great man , he had to pear a lot of Responsibility early in his life after his father death when he was only 15 ,
as the oldest young man in the family and with the help of his uncle he had to take the responsibility of his family (a Mother, 2 brothers ,5 sisters the youngest of them was 2 years old only.
He had to work hard and study at the same time to complete his secondary school , it was a hard time for any human in his age but he proved how much he was responsible < he never had a chance to complete his studies in the university at that time < but he insisted in educating him self by reading in deferent direction , he was also a good merchant with a good reputation in the Palestinian market and he created more than one project to support his family .
at the age of 23 he was apple to get married and one year later he had me , i had another 2 brothers and 1 sister , and within all the responsibility he had he was apple to raze us and his brothers < even to send his sisters to universities in Amman and Romania to complete their studies.
(part of his work ) – a photo in Amman Jordan
He had also political interests and ambitions < even with all the responsibilities he had he never forget his responsibility toward Palestine and he Joined the Palestinian Democratic front ( a resistance group and part of PLO ) since the beginning of the first intifada < he later Joined the Democratic Palestinian union of FIDA witch emerged from the splitting of the democratic front in the 1990 ,
he believed in peace and he was a peace activist in my city < he was apple to be the general secretary of the party in Nablus for a while before he resigned and take a side a way from all the political work because of the corruption that he saw and couldn't fix witch spread widely in all the Palestinian parties < movements and fronts after the Oslo agreement .
but recently i discovered a new side of my father for the first time , i Know that he love photography since he was young , and he had more than3 cameras to take shoots for the family ,
But a simple Casio 10.1 mega pixel Digital Camera & Flicker Web site proved that he was born with an artist eye , even he had no idea how to use Photoshop <and he also had a poor computer skills ( Recently he started to use the Computer to communicate with me , until he discovered Flicker ) .
with simple techniques and without Digital aid he was apple to create very nice shoots from the Palestinian and Nablus daily life and nature < and within few weeks he was apple to attract dozens of visitors to his page on flicker .
here is a links to his page i hope you can enjoy it and pleas let me know your opinions .

The Birth of Israel is a documentary film created by BBC in 2008 , in the 60 anniversary of the Palestinian Nakba (or the Creation of Israel ) , for the first time , the British TV network showed parts of the history of the conflict in a relatively balanced way , even it still takes the Israeli story in many parts of the film as facts disregarding the Palestinian story or even the British Mandate official documentary stories.
but it still giving a good idea about the conflict and the real conditions the Palestinian nation lived under the British mandate , the truth a bout the Jewish immigration to Palestine under the support of the Uk , and it even reveals part of the truth about the 1948 war of independence for the Jewish of Nakba war for the Palestinian people < and for the first time it speaks about the Palestinian refuges problem and the responsibility of the Under ground Israeli militant groups like Hagana into it .
the film is about 1 hour long and its in English < i hope that you all can take a look at it and you can all left your opinions in it as a response on the blog.
ولادة اسرائيل هو فلم وثائقي من انتاج شبكة ال بي بي سي البريطانية في العام 2008 ,بمناسبة مرور ستون عاما على النكبة الفلسطينية (قيام دولة اسرائيل ) ولأول مرة تظهر الشبكة التلفزيونية البريطانية تاريخ هذا الصراع بطريقة شبه متوازنة ,على الرغم من تبنيها الرواية الاسرائيلية في العديد من مقاطع الفلم كحقيقة مطلقة بغض النظر عن الرواية الفلسطينية المقابلة او حتى الرواية الرسمية البريطانية الموثقة في سجلات الانتداب .
على الرغم من ذلك لا يزال الفلم يعطي فكرة جيدة عن تاريخ الصراع و الاوضاع التي عاشها الفلسطينيين تحت الانتداب البريطاني و بعض الحقائق حول هجرة اليهود الى فلسطين بدعم من الحكومة البريطانية , كما تكشف جوانبا من حقيقة حرب النكبه عام 1948 – ما يعرف من قبل الأسرائيليين بحرب الاستقلال , ولاول مرة يتحدث عن مشكلة اللاجئين الفلسطينيين و الدور المباشر الذي لعبته العصابات الصهيونية السرية و الرسمية مثل الهاجاناه وشتير و الليحي في نشاتها .
مدة الفلم حوالي الساعة و هو باللغة الانجليزية, اتمنى ان يكون بوسعكم النظر اليه و ترك تعليقاتكم الموضوعيه على المدونه .
