Description:
The stories she heard, ranging from the humorous to the tragic, paint a profile that is as honest as it is uncommon in the Western media: One of ordinary people who just want to live ordinary lives.
As Pearlman writes, "The personal stories and heartfelt reflections that I encountered did not expose a hatred of Jews or a yearning to push Israelis into the sea. Rather, they painted a portrait of a people who longed for precisely that which had inspired the first Israelis: the chance to be citizens in a country of their own."
