A Palestinian woman – living in temporary tents set up by the displaced on the border with Egypt – expressed the tragedy of the people whom the Israeli occupation and its supporters want to displace from their land, and she repeated while crying: “I completely refuse to go to Sinai.”
She revealed that they were displaced from their homes 100 days after the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip, and 15 days ago they were displaced to the Egyptian border, but they heard that the Israelis would control the border area between Egypt and Palestine.
With great pain and sorrow, this Palestinian describes her circumstances as being difficult, and today they are much more difficult. She says that when she watches Gaza on the border with Egypt, she feels fear, pain, sadness, the blood of the martyrs, and the cry of young children.
She adds, “I feel like a complete stranger,” then repeats while crying: “I completely refuse to go to Sinai because it is not my land. I am Palestinian and have a Palestinian identity and nationality. If I went to Egypt, I would feel like a stranger.” She adds: “I refuse to even look at Sinai from afar because it is not my land.”
This displaced woman expressed the pain and suffering of the Palestinians in Gaza. She said that they had been in pain for 100 days because of the war and their features had changed. She said, “When I look at my children, I feel that their childhood is wasted and we are unable to offer them anything.”
She added that what happened in 1948 may have been easier than what is happening today, because the interconnectedness between the Arab peoples was greater, and “but today we feel that the Arabs have become strangers to us… justice has died in the Muslim land, O Omar.”
