Atlas (and how the World) Shrugged

Here is a graphic slide show of Al Naqbah. It was put together by Dr. Salman Abu Sitta, who has just spent ten years completing The Atlas of Palestine. This monumental work represents one of the tipping points in the Palestine debate. You can read about it here:

The slide show is extraordinary. You can watch the incremental creep of Israeli settlement during the 1948 war.
If you click on the url below, you will be asked if you want to open or save the file. It is a Powerpoint presentation. I suggest that you save it as you will want to view it many times. To start the show, left click on the screen. After you have absorbed each page, click to advance.

Sorry, the host site has been attacked. Will try and find a new link.
