Photographs of The “Invented” People of Palestine

by Roqayah on December 12, 2011


This post is not meant to be a political/geographical response to the AIPAC fondling Newt Gingrich, as I believe there are a plethora of articles floating around which do their part in discrediting the blatant defamation that Palestinian are an “invented people”; instead this will be a photo-entry. I wish for other to see the people of Palestine before the occupation of their land. Before the creation of the apartheid state of “Israel”

The photographs can be found on Photographium, a historical photo archive meant for academic research.
