“…gives both peoples—and those who care about them—a chance to listen and learn more about the human dimension of the Israeli-Palestinian struggle.”
- LEWIS ROTH, Americans for Peace Now

Tears in the Holy Land begins where the nightly news leaves off—putting a human face, one of suffering and determination, on what was once just a headline. In this collection of oral histories based on interviews with Palestinians and Israelis, we hear the voices of those directly affected by the conflict in Israel/Palestine. They speak with a commendable sincerity that reaches out from the pages and demands critical consideration. The question of which side is right and which side is wrong fades into the background as another truth emerges: the cycle of violence must cease for the sake of the personal and economic security of all people in the holy land and the world at large.

“Tears in the Holy Land illustrates the deep connections that people can develop with the ‘other’ even during war times. The diversity and depth of the human stories testify to the untapped possibilities and the urgent need to work for peace….”
- MOHAMMED ABU-NIMER, American University, School of International Service, International Peace and Conflict Resolution
