Synopsis "Prisoners of History: The Story of Dalia, a Palestinian (in English)"
"Prisoners of History: The Story of Dalia, a Palestinian" is about an orphaned Palestinian student, being educated in Christian schools, and her friend, a young female Israeli journalist. It is a very short, fast-paced, 'non-fiction novel' which reveals disturbing details of the treatment of Palestinian students by Israel's military and feared secret police (Shinbet), who demolish the schools and homes, and incarcerate children in the "Occupied Territories" -- and the brave efforts of many Israelis, including former military officers, who risk their future and welfare to help these students and their families. The book exposes authentic incidents experienced by Israelis and Palestinians. It is written in an easily-readable way, to provide history and information in a unique manner. One of the literary techniques is to put actual information from former Israeli military officers into the dialog of several of the characters. Also shocking is authentic modern scholarship from leading Israeli academicians which reveals that most Israelis have European blood -- not Semitic blood. The author has been to Israel over 25 times and to Palestine 10 times, and had private meetings with many Israeli and Palestinian leaders, including Ehud Olmert (former Prime Minister of Israel), Hanna Nassar (former Mayor of Bethlehem), and Yasser Arafat (former President of Palestine). The cover art is by the renowned Brazilian artist Carlos Latuff.
