Written by Palastinian Arab and Christian pastor Mitri Raheb, Bethlehem Besieged: Stories Of Hope In Times Of Trouble is a powerful, human, and soul-searching account of the devastating toll that years of Israeli occupation have wrought upon Palestinian citizens in the city of Bethlehem, birthplace of Jesus Christ. A clearly worded account of human hardships and daily struggles to claim basic rights of decency, Bethlehem Besieged is a powerful true account of day-to-day life in which such simple tasks as driving from one place to another become inordinately difficult, even perilous. A highly recommended work that reflects the author's enduring faith even in a seemingly endless, hopeless situation of strife and pressure.
