Sami Abed: Israel's anniversary marks a time for reflection, no...

It has been more than 60 years since my father left the land of his birth -- Palestine.

Nice article, I wish you will fine your home and you will be able to visit Jaffa, Sami you are lucky that at least as a tourist you could visit, a hundreds of thousands –if not more- would like go back to look for their homes and lands but unfortunately they can’t.

Thank you, Sami, for reminding us of the other half of the equation of the birth of Israel without acrimony, without apology. This was eloquent, balanced, thoughtful. I hope you and your father find something of Palestine on your journey this summer.

You know, it's mean spirited people, such as youself, who make it almost impossible to solve anything in the ME. Notice I say almost, because I have every hope that things will be solved eventually and that that area will be peaceful with Christian, Jew, and Muslim living in peace and security.
