The Palestinian Refugee Project

 The Palestinian Refugee Project was invited to speak recently at a local branch meeting of the Women's Institute (WI). I was asked to speak about life on the camp of Ain il Hilweh for Palestinian refugees, highlighting the struggle we endure on a daily basis as refugees in a country that grants us no rights, desperately wanting our right to return to Palestine. 


My mother-in-law is a member of the local branch of WI and has been tremendously supportive of me as a Palestinian Refugee, she goes against the grain and has seen through the pro Zionist propaganda here in the UK and has thrown herself fully into supporting the Palestinian refugees. With her support and influence she has been able to get our first event booked and it was a great success. 

It was very well attended and a video that I presented of daily life for a Palestinian refugee was very well received. It was painfully clear though that most of the members present knew nothing about the Palestinian refugees and our history. This is sadly not a surprise, we are forgotten, we are ignored, we are marginalised in favour of refugees that fit a political rhetoric and this is what the Palestinian Refugee Project was set up to counter. 

This is the first opportunity for the PRP to raise it's voice in public to break through the imposed isolation of the Palestinian refugees and we know that it will not be the last time! We are available to speak on the situation the Palestinian refugees face and the issues we want to raise in our support. 

We will fight for our right to exist, we will fight to change the language surrounding the occupation of Palestine, we will fight to get our voice heard. 

If you wish to know more about us speaking at your event please get in touch here....

Palestinian lives do not matter for Helen Mirren.

Helen Mirren, Another Murder. Without humanity and no sense of justice, Palestinians' lives do not matter to Dame Helen Mirren.   Helen, have you forgotten British history? Specifically, the first of killing the Palestinians and selling of their land to the Zionists? A woman with your history would not mind it; you will enjoy it just like the wicked witch of the West that you are! You add your name to the list of evil people by demonising a victim's history. She has the vicarious pleasure of killing Palestinians at the hands of the Zionists, and as we know, Zionism is a political ideology anyone can adopt any race, nationality, or belief. With your statement, you make yourself a non-human person; yes, you are anthropoidal, but you are a human without humanity. You and your evil rhetoric are a massive part of our suffering, and we will make sure to keep your name written down in our history books that you are an evil witch, full of hatred and racism. How can you claim to...

Greta Thunberg Pro - Palestine

Image
  Greta Thunberg will be removed from the school curriculum of the occupiers of Palestine, the israeli terrorists, after she expressed support for Gaza. I do not think that Greta will be affected by this because it is a curriculum that does not mention the zionist occupation of Palestine in 1948, the massacres committed against defenceless civilians, or that Palestinians have been living in the diaspora for the past 75 years with no rights.

The donations pledged by the West to the Relief Agency for Palestine Refugees

The donations pledged by the West to the Relief Agency for Palestine Refugees are just token amounts based on political allegiance than any genuine concern for the Palestinian Refugees. Some Arab states who used to donate now have either stopped altogether or reduced based on their new “normalisation” of relations with the occupation. The West supports the occupation, so any donation to the UN for the Palestinian refugees is a hypocritical joke. They are more than happy to fully fund the terrorist occupation and the NATO proxy war, but when it comes to real humanitarian help, they pretend not to notice.
