One of my long-time favorite sites, one that makes me
frequently cry when I view it is this one: 
http://www.maafa.org/

I found the Israeli/Palestinian flag of interest in
the Confederate flag exhibit.  One needs to remember
the recent history of the design of the new Iraqi
flag.  If you recall, there was flap associated
therewith because it was designed in the colors of the
Israeli flag and had to be redesigned.  I suspect the
design of the Israeli/Palestinian flag had something
to do with that fiasco.
