What is the impact the reality of Palestinian political and social life?

Palestine is an occupied country by Israel from sixty- years. After 1948, Palestinians are Diaspora from their land. They went to different cities in West Bank or extremely out of Palestine. Sixty-years passed. People bored their situation. In addition, try to accept the reality and search about works, house, and search about better future to their family. Now people at present are looking for a new life, looking for what people in the world taking, and comparing Palestinian situation with other countries around them. They want to develop their country. I think all people work on become more civilization than before and more educated to be stronger. All of Palestinians, their aim become once all of them in the same dreams peace and freedom. Palestinians people always try to show the world their issue and make attention about it.

Many powers try to share in this fight. Many countries supporting Israel and others which are weakness and powerless were supporting Palestine. The main power is United States, which shared in this fight, until now and supporting Israel in many ways in their issue including a political view. Many countries try to help Palestine or make suggestions about accommodation and peace. I think nobody can change the balance because we all know who the big power in this issue is!
We noticed that especially in this time, people in Palestine need to forget their suffering and live in different reality because they really bored from this situation. History of Palestine it makes us broodiness and wants to forget the past and live in present.

If you go to Ramallah where I live in, you will noticed how the people who live there caring about their business and you defiantly notice how they try to live different kind of living than other cities in West Bank and forget the occupation. Maybe that because Ramallah in the middle and there is kind of peace in this small city. In Ramallah, there are no clashes as compared with Jenin and Hebron. The system is different because most of people who live in Ramallah from another city in Palestine. They come to Ramallah search about new jobs and after that, they involve with this system.

Through my experience when I went to Bettir. I saw their typical. People whom living in Bettir, living in simple way in houses, which build, of stones in old way. When I passed on paths, I noticed the traditional way in living. Paths are small with old houses around it. Bettir it is so small village beside Bethlehem. That everybody knew each other well as they were in the same family. Most of them working in their land beside jobs. The village of Betir’s archaeological site contains the foundations of buildings, pools, floors, paved with mosaics and many of debris. These give the place special and distinctive luster, which is different from the rest of the villages
Battir is an agricultural town. You can tell by seeing the olive trees and the different types of fruits and vegetables, and there are different kinds and forms of water-fed springs. Perhaps the eggplant of Bettir is the most famous thing in this village. Moreover, is provided for visitors who coming from cities and neighboring villages to spend a weekend pretty quiet between farms. Maybe that’s return to Rhodes stipulated agreement which signed by Jordan, like other neighboring countries to Palestine in 1949 with the Zionist occupation to allow the people of Bettir exploit agricultural land occupied without any permission. It is for this the people of Bettir always working on cultivation and care of it. Therefore, they suppose to work in their land to keep up from settlements. I think people in Battir accepted the reality and now they try to keep what they win and never lose again their land.

I really like my experience in walking in Battir and discovery new things about my land. After that, I would have liked to walk in a new area is different from Battir .finally I was selected Turmusayya to be a perfect place to walk .I walk in Turmusayya. I saw the difference between Turmusayya and Battir. Turmusayya is a village around Ramallah. It is also the last village in Ramallah County from the northern side of the region. The closest house from the Jerusalem-Nablus highway is only 100 meters. I think Turmosaya it has different style if we comparing it with others village in Palestine. Maybe that is because 80%form Turmosaya people have American citizen and 66% of the total population are living in the U.S. so the American culture affected on them especially in the village buildings style. I noticed that almost the houses are villa style. Even almost of them out of their home.

I think Turmusayya live style it is more complicated than Battir. Because they search about develop their village. In addition, Turomusayya people, who living in America support their village by sending money to the village; in this way, they help Turmusayya to being more development. Moreover, they come to Turmusayya in the summer for vacation and back to their works in America. Turmusayya is considered one of the best places for summer vacation especially when Turmusaya people established Equestrian Club at the top of a mountain of the village. They are trying to build more buildings. There are many different things.
Actually, When I finished the walk in Turmosayya. I wish I had finished the walk in the Palestinian cities and villages inside Israel. However, this possibility does not exist of the origin because of the Israelis very careful not to allow them to enter their territory, which occupied since 1948 and 1967.

The situations in Palestine force us to live in specific way. Moreover, maybe all political views planned to make us feel in this way. I talk about Bettir and Turmusayya to support my idea what Palestinian society has a different kind of disparities even between small villages and that kind of style way. The Israel’s occupation forwards us to this kind of regime.
