Dion Nissenbaum A Street Divided: Stories from Jerusalem's Alley of God
Arab families called it "al Mantiqa Haram." Jewish residents knew it as "shetach hefker." In both languages it meant the same thing: "the Forbidden Area." To folks on either side of the border, it was the same thing: a dangerous no-man's land separating warring nations and feuding cultures. The barbed wire came down in 1967, but it was soon supplanted by ever more daunting cultural, emotional, and political barriers separating Arab and Jew. A Street Divided tells this story from one of the rare streets where Israelis and Palestinians live together.
