"If the olive trees knew the hands that planted them, their oil would become tears." - Mahmoud Darwish.

Zach and Yasmine are two teenagers just trying to get through life by keeping their head held high and never letting their hopes drop. Although this can be hard when you're living in an illegally occupied country such as Palestine, they're there for each other. ALL the time. Yasmine is sarcastic, witty and a little controlling. Zach is quiet, annoying and indecisive. All the perfect ingredients to get on each others nerves! However they're basically twins...born apart but meant for each other from the beginning. They're Palestwinians. Join them on this journey as they challenge and learn from each other, battle the hardships of life and dream of their future....possibly a future together? Will they live up to the 'girls and guys can't be friends' motto? Can they survive, where only danger surrounds them? Who knows? Read to find out! All Rights Reserved. Copyright © 2014

The diaries of Palestine is a book written by me about different stories that happened to the Palestinians throughout the years as the war went on. I also wrote a few poems and added them to the book, hope you enjoy them 💕 As one of them, I decided to tell their story since it's my responsibility as a Palestinian to spread awareness about the Palestinian cause. Unlike other books, you are welcome to share the stories to help raise awareness about the Palestinian cause.
