Isabel as Faraj (from Promises) and Liyana (from Habibi)


Faraj:

My friend was shot and killed by Israelis

We used stones

They used weapons

They have all the power in Deheishe

And Palestine is my home

Yet I belong here, and I want peace

And to get peace we shall reclaim Ras Abu Ammar

After the race, after all that has happened

Palestine has hope



Liyana:

My friend Khaled was shot by Israelis

We used nothing

They used guns

I have none of the power in Israel

This place now is our home

Yet I now belong here, and I want peace

And with this peace I may be true friends with Omer

After all of my accomplishments and failures

Palestine has hope

  1. I really liked the two standpoints, but you should explain what Ras Abu Ammar is.
