I bought an old book entitled "Where Jesus Lived". Im not at all religious but I guessed it would have a lot of info about Old Palestine which was of course where Jesus lived...
the photos were taken about 1950-55, just after the founding of Nakbah / Israel, and two things were immediaitely apparent; firstly the pride and sometimes fierceness of the peoples of the region but, in a book supposedly about Jesus, it couldnt help dwelling on the misery that Israel / Nakhba was already causing...
the older the books, the more they speak with the years. In 1870, Goncourt, a witness to the Siege of Paris saw the bleak prospect; "is this to be the future ? Civil war, starvation, bombardment ?"
