WE WILL NEVER GIVE UP - 2013 - 2015 -

The Arab-Israeli conflict has very deep roots, even before the birth of the state of Israel in 1948. But only from 1967, after the Israeli occupation of the West Bank as a result of the Six-Day War, one may talk about the identity of Palestinians as a people.
After more than forty years of occupation, 2 Intifadas and “The Oslo Accords” in 1993 which brought hope for a possible peace resolution, the daily life of Palestinians is actually marked by conditions hard to bear that often lead to violent protests.
But it’s through these acts that Palestinians express their will to never give up, their “resistance” as a movement of people who react to the occupation of their land to defend their own identity.
