Jal al-Bahar

This is a Palestinian refugee "camp" in southern Lebanon. It actually isn't recognized as a camp, but a "grouping" of over 1,000 Palestinian refugees who live along the sea just north of the city of Tyre. The homes are similar to those in the camps. Palestinians, since they don't own the land, are prevented from building or fixing their homes. We spoke with a few people here, one of whom was very cynical towards everyone who claims to be fighting for Palestine. Living here, can you blame him? Jal al-Bahar, another element of the conflict that MUST be addressed before there can ever be peace.
