Senior PA Official: ALL of Israel is Occupied Palestine
According to
Palestinian Media Watch, Jibril Rajoub, a member of the Fatah Central
Committee, chairman of the Palestinian Football Association, and the head of
the Palestinian Olympic Committee, has emphasized in an interview that
"all of Palestine, from the river to the sea, it's all
occupied."
This implies that
Rajoub does not accept Israel's right to exist under any borders, including the
1967 borders. According to Rajoub Tel Aviv, Haifa, Jerusalem, Tiberias, Safed,
and Beersheba are the equivalent of areas under Palestinian Authority control,
such as the Gaza Strip, Jenin, and Ramallah.

Land-for-Peace or Land-for-War?
From 1948 to 1967, the Syrians regularly fired artillery shells from their
dominant positions on the Golan Heights down at Israeli border communities and
Fatah used the territory to launch terrorist raids into Israel, until Israel
captured it in 1967.
But since the US-brokered talks between Israel and Syria began in 1999,
peaceniks have posited that a full withdrawal by Israel from the
strategic plateau in exchange for peace with Syria involved a risk worth
taking.

Jewish & Arab Patients Save Each Others Lives
Two patients who badly needed kidney transplants, one Arab and the
other Jewish, managed to save the others life by having one of their
relatives donate their kidney to help the other patient survive. 32-year-old
Mohammad Eckert's wife, Rasha, age 30, donated her kidney to 57-year-old David
Ben-Yair, while David's son Shmuel, age 34, gave his kidney to Mohammed.
The rare procedure was performed at Rambam Hospital's Medical Transplantation
Unit by Dr. Rawi Ramadan, an Arab physician who is the director of Rambam's
Transplantation Unit.

VIDEO:
Supporting the People of Southern Israel!
On April 28, 2013, UWI members showed solidarity with Israeli communities that
were pounded with thousands of Hamas rockets. Nearly 100 people, including many
young kids, joined us on a boiling hot day to install shelters in Netivot and
plant fruit trees in the town of Tifrach. PLEASE WATCH!
It was a wonderful day that brought loads of smiles to the residents of both
Netivot and Tifrach, as well as to the participants. But the real thanks goes
to United with Israel's global community of supporters.
