It was 1982. Italy was celebrating its victory at the World Cup, when TV passed the images of hundres of dead bodies in Sabra and Shatila camps, Lebanon. I thought they were broken dolls. They were Palestinian refugees. 35 years later I decided to write a book about them. @PRIL

You ask me why I laugh bitterly when people talk of Hamas as Israel's main problem?
This is the true face of Zionism. Racism is inherent to colonialism.

Thinking of a Comprehensive Protection and Solution Framework for Palestinain refugees does not mean to naively ignore the 'political process', but rather rethinking it so as to put these ever-excluded refugees (as well as Palestinians in the diaspora) at the center of the debate

I saw a lot more instances of entirely unnecessary, provocative behavior by Israeli police/military today. At Damascus Gate (stun grenades thrown at peaceful Palestinian group), in Sheikh Jarrah (skunk water fired on Palestinian homes) & Bethlehem (volleys of tear gas) – at Israel

Censorhip is vile. #NoMoreNakbas
Unreal. Thanks everyone who demanded that unaccountable Silicon Valley firms do even more censorship.

Correct @Peter. Not only did Oslo further fragmented Palestinian land&people, polverizing (attempting to) their resistance/identity, but also worked to bury, once&for all, the Palestinain refugee Question. Yet, there is no peaceful future to be walked into without the refugees.

Media bias and propaganda 2.0 I am with you @mayamikdashi #NoMoreNakbas
Mainstream media does not consider #Palestinian lives equal to Israeli lives. Palestinian deaths aren’t even equal to the inconvenience of closed restaurants & a “damaged” tourist season. This kind of coverage amplifies & facilitates the racism that undergirds Israel’s impunity
