Editorial  
 

When right undergoes identity blemishing attempts along with annihilation ones, exercised by the power of strength, in multiple illegitimate styles, righteousness stands firmly with all available might and legitimate means against powers of aggression.
This is what occurs with the Arab Palestinian People, that undergoes unprecedented systematic annihilation attempts, along with blemishing and wiping out of its memory from world records, by an Israeli aggressor who is. endorsing all its creativities and mastership of civilization, achieved during its long history, falsifying it as Israeli production.
Palestinian Villages were wiped out completely; mountain, vally, river, town, plain and all arab sitesÕ nomenclatures all have been substituted by false Hebrew ones.
Israeli occupation is trying to demolish educational and cultural institutions along with scientific and research centers, specially universities. It is also trying to destrong the scientific thinking of the Palestinian People in order to change it into an ignorat one, through forceful closing of educational institutes, specially Plestinian universities, as part of the aggressorÕs attempts to blemish reality and truth in Palestine giving way to zionist lies and falsification.
Arab Palestinian People as a whole stood courageously against such attempts, enlightening both Arab and world opinion informing them about the stark truth, showing Arab right in Palestine with its historical, juristic, Political and national bases. It used for this purpose numerous legal means.
Where Palestinian geography, identity, intellegentsia, schools, universities, libraries, archives, book and library endowments together with archeological findings stood against Israeli attempts, showing the cultural, knowledge, economic, social and architectural well advansed aspects that represent the Palestinian PeopleÕs Memory, which has its roots in the land of Palestine since the existence of mankind on earth.
As for Al-Quds the 1st Qabaa and its Al-Aqsaa Mosque, the 3rd sacred Islamic temple, with its Arabic and Islamic architecture, all represent the strongest historical evidence about the Arab Right, and the most prominent mark in the Palestinian-Israeli contention.
Therefore they are an Israeli target to be judified and demolished especially Al-Aqsaa Mosque.
Documents of Beit Al-Maqdis, especially those of the religious court, Ottoman records, Orient House which is considered one of the most important land-marks in Al-Quds, all shared politically, culturally and informatically in defending Al-Quds as an Arab city, against the denial and falsifying attempts exercised by Israel.
Palestinian paper and metallic currency together with stamps and mail marks showed the development of social and economical life in towns and cities in old times, confirming the Arab facts and the re-jotting down of Palestinian history away from zionist falsification.
Oral memory of the homeland was always part and parcel of the Palestinian case history, since it accompanied the Palestinian People during all stages of its life-span, and was an important national asset that was inherited by younger generations, clinching firmly to land and home, where Palestinian Homeland is considered the supreme dream to become true.
Palestinian floklore song proved the originality of the people and its clinching to its Arab land and surrounding.
Finally, a historical basic proof of the Arab identity of Palestine is the heroic stead-fastness of its Arab people which is still recording the most wonderful epics of sacrifice, through its blessed Intifada.
As a gratitude of Arab Club for Information (Arabcin), for the sacrifices paid by the great people of Palestine and its legendary stead-fastness, and conforming with the trends adopted by the club, and to maintain the vividity of the Palestinian cause in the human memory, it consecrated this issue of ÒArabÕia 3000" for talkinf about the memory of a sruggling people through libraries and documentation institions in Palestine, along with all aspects of life, that are facing the most criminal forces in the world, in order to highlight the force of righteousness that witness the reality of Palestine beeing the Homeland of the Palestinians since time immemorial. And any occupation what so ever and how long it stays would eventually depart away.
The force of right held by the Palestinians which is nowadays facing the right of force conjured by Israel would also vanish soon.
