When the British were in control at least there was a modicum of equality and justice in Palestine and religious fanatics were few and far between. It was the arrival of the State of Israel and the subsequent immigration of American Zionist fundamentalists that ruined the land for everyone.

the british control of palestine during which palestine was divided was a strategic road to the control of oil and economic interest through the port of haifa and the red sea that 's why the colonial bristish regim navigated between the arabs demands and the zionist demands

why don't you learn a little discernment and keep your crap to the pages about politics. I loved looking at the old pictures and was in a good mood, that is until I read your TB which, once again was pathetic

I've seen your rabid anti-Zionist/ antisemitic rants on previous talkbacks. What is your problem? Your name suggests Jew so are you self hating like Bobby Fisher, Harold Pinter, Noam Chomsky etc, brainwashed by pro-Palestinian BS propaganda, have mental health problems or are you just a jihadist in disguise? Anyone, Jew or non-Jew, Israeli or non-Israeli, can have a positive or negative opinion of Israel but please come up with something a bit more substantial than the Jews came and it was bad, it was so good under British rule! Try reading some history books or reveal yourself to be George Galloway as I suspect...

Why let demented comments ruin your mood? Look at it this way: God created idiots, too. After all, how else would the rest of us know just how brilliant we really are :-)

It would be an eye-opener. Find the same spots the original pics were taken and take them again. Let's see how we've done.

Jews were getting bombed, massacred, and attacked everywhere. Funny that you rail against Zionism as some kind of imperialism, yet you endorse British colonialist control of the Mandate.

There was nothing called Tel Aviv in 1935

Tel Aviv was founded in 1909! And don't add anymore of your filth to this beautiful page.

really interesting to see in the pictures how similar their stance whilst praying is to the muslims. i am fascinated by these jews... they are the jewish group with the most undeniable claim to "constant inhabitation" of eretz yisrael since ancient times. i don't agree with chanalau but yes, it's true there are some nasty american settlers around who no-one likes - better you stay in america!

There was no such thing as a palestinian person until an egyptian man named arafat adopted it for his terror movement

Untill ur Occuppation forces killed its ppl. tipical Israelies, always trying to change history.

Actually, there were Palestinian people before that. They were also known as Jews.

you are right but i want to tell it in other words ........i have milions of photoes about the land and about the people from 1910 it are on my memory from my mother and my grand mother but alas they had no camera .. nor electricity at that time but they were here have the life thisis the differance between me and the others but sure i like the photoes it is the same even to those jews on the jersim mountain they are more likly the arabs /// and the land still the same with more buildings but i like the nature in evry thing even in the people

Hopefully you have passed on these photos of the mind to your own children so that this collective folk memory will stay alive to be handed down from generation to generation so that Palestine will live forever despite the dispossession of your people by the Zionists, to the eternal shame of the Jewish people (myself included) who allowed them to commit this monumental crime in our name. In his book "Sacred Landscape", Meron Benvenisti describes the elaborate efforts undertaken by the first post-Naqba Israel governments to deliberately efface Palestine from the map, not just the physical destruction of Palestinian homes, towns and villages but in addition the alteration of place names and the removal of any references to the original places in maps and atlases. These are not the actions of a nation convinced of its own historic rights, rather the reactions of a thief to urgently try to hide and disguise the origin his stolen goods.

Your rabid self-hating rant, that is if you truly are jewish, does nothing but demonstrate your demented mind. Whatever is your problem you've certainly done nothing to improve it with your post. Set aside your blind hatred and read some factual history about the land and its inhabitants before you post here again. If jews cleansed the land of arabs there would not be a 20% arab population in Israel proper today.

It is interesting, he makes not a single mention of the term 'Palestine', or 'Palestinian', only of Arabs and Jews in a historical context. Has it ever crossed your mind that this term 'Palestinian' is a foreign concoction foisted on the Arabs from the outside by the true imperialists, and jealous Jew-haters and self-haters like you. If Israel were really paranoid about its own identity and place names, why would everything be sign posted in both Hebrew and Arabic , including names of places? Perhaps it is your blessed UK which is suffering an identity crisis while its own culture is morphing into God knows what. The true measure of feeble self-identification and self-respect comes from those who constantly hurl abuse and vitreol at others, particurly those who are ostensibly their own ppl (which in your case I highly doubt).
