Why Do the Muslims Neglect the Palestinian Diaspora?

The Gazan Palestinians absolutely need help and relief, and I applaud efforts to bring them relief and lift the Israeli siege. But there is another front to this war which the Muslim nations are ignoring, and that is the Palestinian diaspora.

Muslim nations should be pressuring the Israelis for the right of return and shine a spotlight on Jewish racism. At the same time, Muslim nations should invite in Palestinians of the diaspora and give them training and aid and promote their interest in political and journalistic careers. Muslim nations should create an international scholarship program for Palestinians and welcome them into their universities as well as financing their studies in America and Europe.

A healthy and prosperous Palestinian diaspora would be a great boon to the besieged Palestinians of Palestine.

Fair use as described at 17 U.S.C. Section 107:

"Notwithstanding the provisions of section 106 and 106A, the fair use of a copyrighted work, including such use by reproduction in copies or phono-records or by any other means specified by that section, for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching (including multiple copies for classroom use), scholarship, or research, is not an infringement of copyright.

In determining whether the use made of a work in any particular case is a fair use the factors to be considered shall include:

  • (1) the purpose and character of the use, including whether such use is of a commercial nature or is for or nonprofit educational purposes,
  • (2) the nature of the copyrighted work,
  • (3) the amount and substantiality of the portion used in relation to the copyrighted work as a whole, and
  • (4) the effect of the use upon the potential market for or value of the copyrighted work."
