EVENTUALLY!

Eventually something happy has happened to me. Well, not exactly to me, but actually to my brother.The metric exams (altawgi'hi -as we say) have finished, and the results of the exams have arrived a few days ago. I was so proud at him!My brother has really got good grades in all of his subjects!! I Wonder, in his age, Is it possible to act like an adult, and finish these exams while Palestine is at "war"? I feel it is very hard to learn at the university while the non-stopping fights between Hamas and her fatah are still occurring inside and outside the universities.

Unfortunately, Palestinian students are not really enjoying the easy life- they do not have the ideal terms of learning. And however, many students have received very good grades at these metric exams! I am very proud to know that hundreds of "new" graduates, who finished school few days ago, will become the new generation of students in the universities!

My brother has really succeeded, and he really impressed me and our parents.I would like to wish him luck, and invite him, and the other graduates to join universities and expand their knowledge.

We all have to remember that education is the keystone which will help our society to develop and help us as a nation to become stronger and maybe have a better future!!!

Who stole my newspaper?!

Sounds funny, isn’t it?

No, it's not a beginning of a joke.
It’s the new restriction of the Hamas party in Gaza.

The Hamas forces have banned the distribution of the 3 main Palestinian newspapers (al-ayyam, alhayat-aljadida, alquds).

It really seems as if Hamas has lost it…

It looks as if HAMAS is doing everything they can in order to hide the truth from the people in GAZA. They promised us freedom and what we are getting is a dark regime (which is getting darker every passing day).

Let's just hope that Hamas will calm down as quickly as possible.

Let's just hope,

Asad al nimr,
Ramallah.

When things at the university goes wrong…

Last week, on Tuesday, the 24th of July, An-najah university (in Nablus) witnessed the ugly side of Palestine..

For those who missed the action:

On Tuesday a violent confrontation took place at the University. Many students got injured, and one of the students has died as I have heard as a result of this "war".
I even heard from a friend of mine that people were shooting inside the campus! Isn't it insane? Even the university is being used for these unnecessary deaths.
I wonder if there is even one place left in Palestine that hasn’t been violated by Hamas supporters.
The An-najah board has decided to suspend the classes for the moment. It means that all of the an-najah students are not learning at the university just because of these fights… is it worth it???
Why does Hamas feel free to enter into every "quiet" place, and demolish it?
A friend of mine who was there told me it was horrible .It all started when Hamas decided to hand out special leaflets, but the problem was that the university decided because the circumstances, and the happenings in Gaza, that no leaflet what so ever will be distributed inside the area of the university. But the Hamas students cell decided not to consider the request of the university board ... and therefore, the Fateh student cell tried to stop the handing out of this leaflet inside the university campus. From here hell broke loose.
I wonder… Universities are supposed to be places where you come to learn, and therefore they are supposed to be a safe place for us, and not places were one is trying his best to save himself and his friends from bullets flying above the head.
I asked my friend to draw a special caricature in order to show you the way we see this incident in Nablus ..



We feel as if the anarchy in Gaza is penetrating the west bank in a tremendously quick way, we are very disturbed seeing such pictures and fights. My biggest fear is that Hamas will also conquer the west bank, as they have Done in Gaza. And the consequences were not good at all.. we all hope that all will be well here and that the Palestinian peple will be reunited again.
So please, let's keep the anarchy outside the west bank and especially away from Ramallah.

Sincerely,
Asad al nimr.
