 Would You Believe 'My Father's Land' 22:10, RTE 1, Thursday 5 December 2002 Salah Afifi made the headlines when he was arrested this summer, imprisoned for 7 days and deported by the Israeli Authorities for taking part in a peaceful protest march in a small town near Nablus. It was Salah's first time to visit Palestine, for him the journey to the West Bank was part of a quest for truth and for his roots. Salah grew up in Portmarnock on Dublin's Northside - Half Palestinian but wholly Irish. This week's Would You Believe hears Salah's story - a very personal insight into his discovery of his Palestinian inheritance. |

==============================The fairy woman canme with a Black & Decker. She cut down my tree. I watched her like fool cut the branches one by one.

=======the bottom fell out of my stomach and as if I got a good kick or a punch in the guts a weakness came over me that made me so feeble I couldn^t lift a finger for three whole days.
Murab ionann is an crann
a dh^fan ann, slān.
=Unlike the tree
which happily, heathily grew away.

This programme will be seriously misleading, there are no Palestinians, Golda Meir said so. How do we even know that this guy is really a Palestinian?
