Diary from Palestine

"Ahlan wa Sahlan fi filashtin": Welcome to Palestine. Forget a normal world, made up of cities and roads. Here are villages which can be accessed only by narrow streets which then become Tunnel highways that can take only a few, others do not. Here there are walls and barbed wire, which guarantee Israel's security, but cut and territories do not allow ordinary people, peasants and workers, through what was once their land.
