When 700,000 Palestinians fled from or were thrown out of their homes
during the Nakba in 1948, they took their house keys with them,
convinced that they would come back after a week or two and re-open
their front doors. The keys have been passed on from generation to
generation as a reminder of their lost homes and as lasting symbols of
their ‘right of return’. The Palestinian right of return or compensation
was internationally recognized by the United Nations General Assembly
Resolution 194, adopted on 11 December 1948.
