AUTHOR: FRANK ROMANO
BOOK: Love & Terror in Middle East 3rd edition
"The book is about the challenges of my work organizing interfaith events including dialogues with Christians, Jews, Muslims and people of all faiths in Israel and the West Bank. It chronicles my trips to Israel and the West Bank (4-5 times yearly from 2005 to the present), sometimes facing hostility and passing through a maze of walls and checkpoints in Israel and the West Bank to lead interfaith activities.
They are aimed at easing the region’s bloody path to peace. Sometimes the events lead to a spiritual catharsis in Israel and even in the midst of the contested refugee camps in the West Bank." |
