Will Israeli-Palestinian negotiations get my family back home?

August 16, 2013
By Suheir Azzouni for The Oslo Times

Last month, my family and I went back home to Palestine for summer vacation. Five days into the vacation, the Israeli Ministry of Interior (MoI) handed us documents expelling us from our country, leaving us to face statelessness and exile.

We are now in France, appealing our case, still in sharp pain, indignant about this injustice, and fearful about our future.Our attorney hopes to convince MoI to reverse its decision on revoking our “permanent resident” status in East Jerusalem, where my husband was raised and my children were born.

Should MoI insist on its decision, two of our three children would end up stateless and passport-less. This will also mean that our family will not be able to live in, or possibly visit, our homeland again.
