I figli dell'odio : la radicalizzazione di Israele, la distruzione della Palestina, l'umiliazione dell'Iran
Description:
In Hebron, a group of young Jewish girls unfurls a banner opposing intermarriage. In Tulkarem, Palestinian youths hang photographs of their slain friends from their rifles, preparing to fight Israeli soldiers. In Tehran, Abbas mourns a cousin hanged by the regime, feeling a volatile mix of terror and excitement at the prospect of a major attack by the Jewish State against the Islamic Republic. This new reportage by Cecilia Sala offers an intimate look at three deeply intertwined narratives: the radicalization of Israel, the destruction of Palestine, and the collapse of the "Axis of Resistance"—an alliance anchored in Tehran. With a vivid, immediate style, Sala takes us through checkpoints and raids, into the homes of victims and perpetrators, military leaders and survivors. She reveals a generational clash unfolding within each of these societies—a fault line that is as significant as it is under-examined in our current world. While "exhausted pacifists" among the older generation of Israelis watch helplessly as their country drifts, a new generation of ultra-young settlers has emerged as the most ferocious the West Bank has ever seen. In Palestine, a father like Firas still believes in diplomacy and looks back wistfully to the era of the Oslo Accords, yet his son, Samih, sees his three assault rifles as the only viable response to the occupation. And in the Islamic Republic of Iran, even as the leadership attempts to mask its own fragility, hundreds of thousands of defiant, unveiled women are taking to the streets—braving facial-recognition cameras to make their voices heard.
