Today marks Nakba Day, an annual day of remembrance to commemorate the expulsion of more than 700,000 Palestinians between 1947 and 1949 during the creation of the State of Israel and the year that followed.
Inea is a New Yorker and a Nakba survivor. She shared her story with us — one of home, tradition and memory over generations.

🇮🇱🇵🇸 WEST BANK HAS SEPARATE ROADS FOR ISRAELIS VS PALESTINIANS - SAME HIGHWAY, DIFFERENT LANES, BASED ON YOUR LICENSE PLATE
2 parallel roads. Same region. One flows freely. One's gridlocked for hours.
The difference? Your license plate color.
Yellow plate (Israeli): Take the bypass road. Drive straight to your settlement. No checkpoints. Fast. Direct.
Green plate (Palestinian): Banned from that road. Take the congested alternative. Wait at checkpoints. Add 2-3 hours to your commute.
This isn't hidden at all.
It is infrastructure policy.
Route 4370 has a literal concrete wall down the middle. One side for Israeli traffic. Other side for Palestinian. Built into the road design.
Hundreds of kilometers of West Bank roads work this way. Israeli settlers get unrestricted access. Palestinians get restricted access or banned entirely.
The justification: Security.
After the Second Intifada (2000-2005), Israeli citizens - including settlers - were targeted in attacks on shared roads. Solution: separate roads. Settlers get protected routes. Palestinians get alternative paths.
Israeli government calls them "fabric of life roads" - infrastructure that lets both populations move while maintaining security separation.
The reality: Palestinian from Ramallah needs to reach Jerusalem (10 miles away).
They can't use the direct bypass road (restricted to Israeli vehicles).
They must take alternative route through multiple checkpoints.
Journey time: 1-2 hours (if permit granted).
Israeli from same starting point: 15-20 minutes.
That's privileged infrastructure for settlers, restricted access for occupied population.
If nothing else, this creates an economic stranglehold. Palestinians can't reach jobs, markets, hospitals efficiently. Time costs money. Restrictions cost opportunities.
Meanwhile settlers living illegally (per international law) in West Bank get better road access than the population that's been there for generations.
The settlements context:
These bypass roads don't just exist in a vacuum. They connect illegal settlements to Israel proper. They were built specifically to let settlers live deep in West Bank while commuting easily to Israeli cities.
Palestinians living in their own territory face restrictions. Settlers occupying that territory get highways.
B'Tselem, Israeli human rights org, has tracked this for 20+ years. Their reports show:
- Hundreds of km of roads Palestinians can't use
- Journeys taking 2-3x longer due to forced detours
- Economic damage from movement restrictions
- System that privileges settlers over occupied population
UN agencies confirm the same patterns.
Netanyahu just told Christians Israel's the only Middle East place they can live safely.
Meanwhile Palestinians - including Palestinian Christians - can't drive on half the roads in their own territory without permits they can't get.
That's the system. Completely different access based on whether you're occupier or occupied.
The video shows it perfectly: Israeli traffic flowing free while Palestinian traffic sits gridlocked meters away. Because the infrastructure was designed that way.

Your ‘suspects’ were 11 and 8.
And they were collecting firewood.
