History, 1948-1950

During the 1948 Arab-Israeli War the Israeli forces managed to capture the town lands, but never managed to capture the town itself. According to Gilmour: "With the news of the armistice the inhabitants were furious that they had simply been handed over [by Abdullah I of Jordan ] to Israel but were understandably relieved that they were to be reunited with their land. Or so they thought. However, the Law of Acquisition of Absentee Property, which was passed in 1950 but made retroactive, was specially devised to take care of cases like this. Although they had not moved from their village, the inhabitants were declared "absentees" and their land "abandoned property". According to the villagers, they lost 8,000 of their 11,000 acres.

Safe Haven for Donkeys in the Holy Land (562 words)
It has long been SHADH’s dream to build a series of “resting stations” for working donkeys in local towns and villages and to use these as a base for free veterinary clinics in order to reach out to many more of the thousands of working donkeys in Israel and the Palestinian Territories.
After the initial scorn, some of the local officials and residents began to show enthusiasm and made it clear that they wanted the project to begin as soon as possible.
So with that challenge in mind and as a pilot to ascertain the need for resting stations across the country, the Tayibe station was constructed and finally opened in July.
