Ramallah Online

Here's a place... and a person.

Ramallah Online



In August 2001 on a visit to the West Bank as part of a delegation from the Scottish TUC, I was privileged to meet Yasser Arafat in Ramallah (in his 'compound', the White House or 10 Downing Street and other government buildings are not described thus ;-) . It was about 2 weeks before another disaster for Palestine and the world, the September 11 bombing of the twin towers, and even then the situation was grim.
