"How many Universities were there in the West Bank and Gaza Before the "occupation" when the West Bank and Gaza were under Egyptian & Jordanian rule?"

A simple search would`ve taken you to Bir Zeit University web site at http://www.birzeit.edu/, then you would`ve learned that it was established in 1924. Do the math yourself!

A similar search would`ve lead you to http://www2.najah.edu/nnu_portal/index.php and you would`ve learned that it was established in 1918.

Where were you when Arabs/Muslims had the best universities in the ME which many Europeans dreamed of attending?
