Guess who I will be voting for in the next election?
News and Commentary on Arab Women, Palestine, Cultural Politics, and Everything in Between
About Me
- Amal A
- These are improvisations: neither a manifesto nor a treatise because life is too complicated for either. Yet, I'm improvising as an Arab--Palestinian-- woman with a progressive point of view always under construction. I use these improvisations to think out loud, so never take any post as my last word on a subject but think of it as the beginning of a conversation.

Silly post. At that time "Palestine" was still considered a Jewish entity - before Arabs took it as their own after 1920's.
In fact, this map is from the 1700's, as the book "Palaestina ex monumentis veteribus illustrata" by Adriaan Reland. The book shows that before the influx of European Jews and Arabs from Syria and Egypt Jews were, by far, the majority of the Palestinian population.
This wasn't an attack on Israel, support for an Arab state or anything like that.
not as silly as your comment.
