Palestine Remembered has a video version of all Nakba-Catastrophe Oral History interviews (high speed Internet access is needed, otherwise, the audio or MP3 version is the only option for low speed Internet).

Here is a complete listing of over 180 interviews (containing over 600 hours of recording) that have been conducted up to this point:

Daily life in tents for 6,000 Palestinian residents of Nahr Al-Barid Refugee Camp in Tarablus, Lebanon, 1952. Today, the population of the camp more than 40,000.

Since most of the Palestinian history wasn't well documented, we believe it is critical to insure the continuation and the expansion of this project. We like to assure you that we will not rest until we covers every single ethnically cleansed Palestinian town. Frankly, without your encouragement and support, PalestineRemembered.com would have never reach this level of success. We appreciate VERY MUCH forwarding this email to your friends and loved ones, god bless you.

Our DATE is 58 years LATE, we shall return.

sincerely,

    The first account of the "Catastrophe" filmed in Gaza in the late 1940's. It was made for the Council for the Relief of Palestine Arab Refugees.

    SANDS OF SORROW

    SANDS OF SORROW (High quality downloadable versions) .

    "This footage was shot in the late 1940s to educate the public about the plight of hundreds of thousands of Palestinians who had been made homeless as a result of the violence and intimidation that accompanied the founding of the state of Israel.

    What most Palestinians thought would be a temporary dislocation lasting only a few weeks at most became permanent. Homeless with just the clothes on their backs, they were left in the desert without food, water, and medical care to die."

    I will never forget the first time I saw this film, which was the first to bring the suffering of Palestinian refugees to the attention of the world.

    How is this different to the camps that the Nazis had?
    How can the Israelis accept this and in the same breath whine about their treatment during WWII?
    Their abuse only lasted seven years.
    The Palestinian abuse has lasted almost 60 years!
