Naser Al-ardah For Palestinians, the bottom line here is that Israel decides whats a given. They decide what they keep and what they swap. All the Palestinians can do is say no— in which case they are portrayed as hostile to peace. Then theres oft-used term neighbourhoods to describe the settlements in what the Israelis call Greater Jerusalem. Using neighbourhood instead of colony illegally built on occupied and confiscated land may convey a cozy down-home image to Americans, but to Palestinians the monstrous concrete settlements that snake up and down the hills around Jerusalem and surround and strangle a dozen tiny ancient Arab villages represent an ugly story of dispossession and denial of rights.
