Palestine in Review – This Was 2001 A Day-to-Day Chronology

This Was 2001 records the history that Palestinians have lived through and witnessed during 2001; which saw Ariel Sharon elected as Prime Minister of Israel, the Israeli army stepping up its savage repression of the Intifada, including invasion and reoccupation of Palestinian cities, camps and towns, and the Palestinians loosing one of their most tireless and steadfast leaders, Faisal Husseini, who had devoted his life to the struggle for Jerusalem.
