Palestine Nylon Flag

About Our Palestine Nylon Flag

This colorful, eye-catching flag was first adopted on May 28, 1964, by the Palestinian Liberation Organization. Right after the Six-Day War in 1967, Israel banned the Palestinian flag in the West Bank and Gaza Strip. In 1980, a law was created to forbid politically significant artworks, especially those using the four colors of the Palestinian flag. Palestinians got arrested when they created art using the colors of the Palestinian flag. The flag finally became the State of Palestine’s national flag on November 15, 1988. The colors of this flag are said to each hold a specific meaning, and the combination of them tells the larger story of the plight of the native people of Palestine. The Red represents the many martyrs and sacrifices of the Palestinian people. The Black represents the oppression and persecution that Palestinians have suffered from for countless years. The White symbolizes peace and love, and the purity of the messages that every Prophet was sent with to the sacred land of Palestine. The Green means prosperity, blessings, and hope for a thriving future.
