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

    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.

    Here is a map:

    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….
