Nakba Remembered Amid Gaza Suffering - 15 May 09
Palestinians have marked the occasion of the 1948 "catastrophe", or Nakba, when they fled their homes in the face of the establishment of Israel.
Al Jazeera's Ayman Mohyeldin reports from Gaza, where this year's commemorations have been overshadowed by the more recent destruction wrought by Israel's war on the territory.

It's time to repeal UNGA-181 and return to a single state called Palestine.
Gee, but the Israelis say there were almost no people in Palestine in 1948 and the Palestinians are just lying about the Naquba. Palestine was a land without a people for a people without a land, at least that is what the propaganda would have us believe.
May Palestine return as a multi-ethnic, multi-religious, multi-lingual state with equal rights for all, no matter if you are pale or dark.
It truly saddens me the misery being forced upon the victims of an illegal and immoral invasion, and I wish them the best.
