IT’S THE span of a whole lifetime since the Palestinians were driven from their homes during the Nakba as the state of Israel was established in 1948.
Palestinians were scattered throughout the region, forced into refugee camps in neighbouring countries. Within that lifetime, the situation of the Palestinian people has got considerably worse.
War and occupation have become facts of life for subsequent generations. Yet two things could perhaps not have been predicted back at the time of the Nakba: one was the sheer brutality of the Israeli state and its increasingly repressive policies; the other was the resilience and resistance of the Palestinian people, which has engendered a powerful solidarity movement in their support.
