The Erasure of Palestinian Presence

Depopulated Villages: Many green valleys, national parks, and forests—such as those planted over the ruins of depopulated Palestinian villages destroyed during the 1948 Nakba—were intentionally designed to obscure indigenous history and prevent the return of displaced refugees.
Confiscated Homes: The "fertile valleys" and urban centers praised in tourism narratives are built on properties expropriated from hundreds of thousands of Palestinians driven from their homes and lands.
