I was surfing online aimlessly when i stumbled upon this:

Isn’t it awesome ?!!

I have seen towns in the USA called Jerusalem, Bethlehem, Lebanon, Palestine, Damascus, Tyre, and Alexandria .. but these are all old biblical names and/or their corresponding cities in the Middle East are very old (from the greeko-roman times) unlike Ramallah.

And for my Jordanian readers, wala eyhimkom .. here is Amman Road in Edison New Jersey:

Amman, Around the World, Internet, Ramallah none

I remember from when I was little in the Netherlands (Rotterdam) I lived in a neighborhood whose streets were name “Bethlehem st.” and “Nazareth st.” etc. So this has been around for a long time

There is an area called Palestina in my city Kristianstad, Sweden.
Palestina is Palestine in Swedish.

Hey man,
How is life in Rammallah? It used to be my dream to live there and meet Mahmoud Darwish, I know thats not gonna happen now but do you think that a Jordanian would be allowed a visa? Maybe post about life in Rammalla, that would be nice, I would appreciate any info you have about it….
