September journey part 21: Biblical hummus
Staying on the move in Israel and the Palestinian territories through a month of trial. And today: heading north, “for terror from the north will boil out on the people of this land.” (Jeremiah,1:14) There’s a town in northern Israel \ with dreams, comfort, memory to spare \ and in my mind I still need…

September journey part 8: It makes no sense
Staying on the move in Israel and the Palestinian Territories through a month of trial. Who’d have thought I’d get shot in my mother’s hometown?

First September journey interlude: A serious obstacle
Staying on the road in Israel and the Palestinian territories during a month of trial, and today: political developments being the journey to a screeching halt. A week into September, the journey faces a peril. My idea was to describe the developments of a potentially dramatic month by way of travel writing. The month indeed…

September journey part 3: Invisible cities
Staying on the move in Israel and the Palestinian Territories through a month of trial. Second excursion: to the old neighborhood and beyond, far beyond.

September journey part 2: What are the chances?
