Zionists attack Muslims & Christians
It's their manner. This is their way of speaking. Zionists attack Muslims & Christians expressing their inherent hate and grudge. This is the profe that they're not human rather they're sheeps. Those are the impudent ,shameless ,insolen and despicable settlers in Hebron.
It's the time to act against them. It's the time to stop those cowards sheep.
Would you be able to live like this? Imagine life under these conditions: Living in limbo under a foreign occupier. Having no self-determination, no right of return, and no power over your daily life. Being in constant fear, economically strangled, and collectively punished. Having your free movement denied by enclosed population centers, closed borders, regular curfews, roadblocks, checkpoints, electric fences, and separation walls. Having your homes regularly demolished and land systematically stolen to build settlements for encroachers in violation of international law prohibiting an occupier from settling its population on conquered land. Having your right to essential services denied - to emergency health care, education, employment, and enough food and clean water. Being forced into extreme poverty, having your crops destroyed, and being victimized by punitive taxes. Having no right for redress in the occupier's courts under laws only protecting the occupier. Being regularly targeted by incursions and attacks on the ground and from the air. Being willfully harassed, ethnically cleansed, arrested, incarcerated, tortured, and slaughtered on any pretext, including for your right of self-defense. Having no rights on your own land in your own country for over six decades and counting. Vilified for being Muslims and called terrorists, crazed Arabs, and fundamentalist extremists. Victimized by a slow-motion genocide to destroy you. Take the Siege away s. Photos from Gaza 
Rachel Corrie : Victim of justice ? She died trying to help people through non-violence resistance. She believed the world can be better place for all people. Rachil died trying to make this dream come true.

Christine Quelch said… - Hi Wafa, I see you have been frozen. A number of mepeace people have been frozen, and it is not always permanent.
There is something I have been wanting to tell you for some time: I always liked your real photo best. Your photo has a dignity which can never be seen in a propaganda poster. Propaganda photos, flags, etc., do not have as much value as real photos of real people.
‘Banning’ is complete deletion. Many people have been banned from mepeace, and plenty of them were Zionists. Would you believe, they used to rejoin the same day !! And, stick up an Israeli flag as well !!
I would much prefer to see you instead of Rachel Corrie, even though she is a very important person. I am glad you are still here, but it is sad you are not able to say much.
Best Wishes.

Neri Bar-On said… - Dear Wafa,
what do you expect my reaction to your claims that "Anyway, it's not me who don't respect others but you and most of jews here at mepeace. "
you are closing your door for listening, you declare me and my other friends are not respecting you, and by that you justify for not respecting us.
I am writing here a lot and you can find my writing and see if I am respectful, but such decelerations base of me being Jewish are not respecting me, nor it can change our conversation to be open, it is just a blame game were unfortunately your blame were so strong Eyal decided to quite your voice.
I invite you to read this: We cannot blame the blamers its their "truth" after all.
This statment: "Also you don't want any one here to remind the peacemakers of your bloody history and your dirty hands which killed and still make massacres and genocide against the children of Gaza . " is insulting,if this is what you think you probably enjoy more other network and no need to insist to be a member of mepeace.org
mepeace is not the only palce to discuss Israel Palestin relationship.
especially
3) Palestinian Mothers
Women are 50 % of the world, and gave birth to the other half.. we are the world
I consider Palestinian Mothers as a "anti-Zionist" group
open by a إقبال التميمي Iqbal Tamimi. many members of mepeace were banned from there due disagreements.
and to that: "Further more you killed many of peace supporters like Rachil which is the truth you don't want others to remember ." I can only add that I am sad for Rachel death and wish it would be otherwise, I recognize the courage and dedication and wish the killing to stop.
Please understand, mepeace.org is a multi-political network it mean that we have people from all the spectrum from the settlers to the Hamas supporters. if any of us show dis-respect to the others he actually mark himself as non cooperative for co-creating a different future that include all and he/she exclude himself from the group.
The conflict is not a game, and it is not a simple one side is good the other side is evil. it is unbalanced and it is the Palestinians who pays the main cost of it but we need to include all, you and me in the solution. excluding us because we are Jewish Israeli will not solve the problem can you see it? same as excluding you and your hard words.
with respect and love
Neri

- Dear Wafa,

Hadi Al Bahra said… - Since I am new to this group and website, so you can guess it; yes I am taking the tour getting my self familiarized with the group. I agree completely with the notes below, of keeping our discussions, and postings civilized, ethical, and clean. We are here by choice to interact and meet the other, who he/she may consider us as his/her enemy, and we may also feel the same. We have picked the path to peace through discussion and exchanges of ideas and by letting each side knows how the other side feels, and thinks. I fully understand the misery that Wafa went and most probably still going through, so I put what she wrote in the "angered, reactive, desperate looking for a way out" and of course letting out anger, I really do not know what I would have written, or done if I am living in Gaza, under siege starving to death, being under bombardment, so please everyone give her a break, and show her love and concern, show her that we care, and we are ready to help her out.
But what I could not understand is the posting below written by Mr. Paul RETI , I had to read it more than five times to make sure that I understand him correctly, what he wrote amounts to a threat note to her, he stated that "Rachel Corrie thought that she was indestructible. ==> She died." Then fallowing that by the statement "You seem to think that you are indestructible. ==> For now, your are still alive on this site." Implies two thoughts, that her end will be getting killed like Rachel Corrie, because she thinks the same that she is indestructible, and then this threat is covered up placing it on being alive on the website. Also I do not think that Rachel Corrie died because that she thought that she was indestructible, she died because she thought that the Israeli soldier driving the bulldozer was a humankind, a civilized citizen of civilized country, she was wrong.
I really think this is not a good example on how to show Wafa how to communicate with other members, and a very bad way in managing or controlling postings on this website.

Raining at my poor area which's called Al-shati refugges camp in Gaza
Something about Al-shati refugees camp :
Beach camp lies beside the sea in the northern part of Gaza City. It is known locally as "Shati" camp. The camp was established on 747 dunums (less than one square kilometer) after the 1948 conflict for some 23,000 refugees from Lydda, Jaffa, Beersheva and the southern coastal plain of Palestine.

The Arab and Islamic World, many Palestinians and their supporters DO NOT recognise the 1967 borders.
Egypt simply no longer claims Gaza, and Jordan no longer claims the West Bank.
