On November 15, Palestinians solidarity activists in Nablus displayed a message of solidarity with the people of Fallujah. At 5:30 PM, the word “Fallujah” was set ablaze on a mountain north of Nablus, known as Jabl-an-Naar (Mountain of Fire). Written in Arabic, the word was about 30 yards long and 10 yards wide, and expressed the commiseration that the people of Nablus feel for Fallujah, another city suffering under military occupation.
