Mass grave uncovered in Jaffa containing remains of Palestinians killed in 1948 war that founded Israel

In a recent horrific find, six mass graves have been found that contain remains of dozens of Palestinians who  succumbed to the Arab-Israel war of 1948 - a war that forced the establishment of the Jewish state of Israel.

The graves have been found in the Jaffa districyt of Tel Aviv.

An official at the Muslim cemetery there told AFP that the grisly find happened on Wednesday when ground subsided as builders carried out renovation work.

Gingrich once "Embraced" Yasser Arafat - leader of "Invented People"

[ via Huffington Post ] 14 Dec

Today while US presidential candidate Gingrich is making statements about the Palestinians being "Invented People," it was the same man who held hands of Yasser Arafat at the end of the Oslo Conference in September 1993 and offered advice about creating a state for the same group of people he now refers to as inauthentic.

The photograph above shows how men could change for their personal gains. Today, Mr Gingrich needs Isreali support badly to sail through his presdidential campaign, and thus can belittle anyone opposed to Israel to gain sympathies.
