Description: As a child, Elias Chacour lived in a small Palestinian village in Galilee. When tens of thousands of Palestinians were killed and nearly one million forced into refugee camps in 1948, Elias began a long struggle with how to respond. In Blood Brothers, he blends his riveting life story with historical research to reveal a little-known side of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, touching on questions such as:

What behind-the-scenes politics touched off the turmoil in the Middle East?

What does the Bible prophecy really say?

Can bitter ememies ever be reconciled?

In this updated edition, Father Chacour shows us what it means to be peacemakers in a broken world. He has built schools and works for peace through the Galilee region. He has been nominated three times for the Nobel Peace Prize.
Age Groups: None specified.
