In 1948 when Jewish settlers occupied Palestinian land that is now called Israel, Palestinians were forced to flee to neighbouring territories in fear for their lives. Most ended up in what is now Gaza, the West Bank, Lebanon, Jordan and Syria, where they gained Refugee Status because they were militarily forced from their native lands. Around a year later (1949), the UN recognised Palestinian Refugee Status and started helping them with aid centers like this one. Now the criminal occupiers in Israel are trying their damnedest to strip Palestinians of their Refugee Status by illegally commandeering UN official buildings (like this one) across the occupied territories, while the impotent International community say little more than Tut Tut!
