I'm Gonna Tell God Everything (ePub)

Under the bleak Israeli occupation, not many would have imagined that love between the oppressed Palestinian women and the carefree Israeli settlers could take root, but it did! Amal was tall, well proportioned, walked like a princess and talked with her eyes. One evening, she was spellbound watching the sunset when Aaron, a dashing Israeli settler approached her. In Hollywood stories, love blossoms between a man and a woman ever so slowly, but in real life, love strikes like a mongoose. Their love affair did not last long because the Israelis stoned Amal to death.Almaz, Amal's sister decided to escape Israel's cast iron clutches, and with the financial help of her friends, studied at the Sorbonne, in Paris, because she believed that only the educated are free, an aphorism the divine Hypatia of Alexandria postulated. After graduating from the Sorbonne, she travelled to Adelaide, in Australia, to gain a perspective on the Middle Eastern muddle from a distance. With Jason, her lover, they storm the Citadel of the Enlightened where Jostein Gaarder, Gideon Levy, Alon Ben-Meir, Noam Chomsky, Judith Butler, Shimon Peres, Yitzhak Rabin, Mahmoud Darwish, Edward Said and Margot Wallstr?m reside, to debunk several myths that proclaim the Israelis are God's chosen people who maintain the most ethical armed forces in the world and believe that killing Palestinians is not really a violation of human rights.
