Railway separates us from old Palestine
In every city in Palestine
In the first, I like to talk from the walk that we took with the
college to see the nature in all ways. And when we saw the different
between the land before and after the war. They tell us what the war
cause problem to the land and to the people that they live at these places.
Now I like to talk from my experience which was the walk I took
for the first time in my life, which was from (Beit Jala) all the way
through walking to (Battir) it was a really nice walk with all my friends
and my teachers and they gave us all the information about the nature
and about the land. While we were walking we didn’t take the way that
was use to walk in it, but the way has a lot of small stones and dust, it
was hard to walk in it but the teacher told us that we should take this way
for the walk not any easy way to do the walk.
They told us that the way will show us the real geography for
Palestine before Israel be part in this country. And we saw the different
ways that the Israel want us just to see these ways only.
When I was walking, I start talking to myself why we don’t came
to these places all the time to see all the wonderful sights in Palestine.
And I start thinking in all the ways, how Palestine was nice to walk
through the lands that Palestine have that just before the Israel took our
lands from us.
When we get through the medial of the way of the walking, we
took a rest and we saw a beautiful tree in the way and the old of the tree
like hundreds years ago. Which it called (Quercus)or (Oak Tree).
That was a really nice tree to look at and the teacher gave us the
most wonderful ideas about that tree, and the way that tree is steadfast in
the face of difficulties, like the weather changes and the human
difficulties around it. But that tree until now still facing all the problems
that the tree will face it. from my thinking I found that tree is like a
treasure to the Palestine people to be in there country.
One more thing that I found interesting through the walking with
my friends which was the train, that we saw in the way while we were
walking which was really nice to see.
The street that train in it is the way that separate Beit Jala from
Jerusalem before that road and the train the way was easy to go from Beit
Jala to Jerusalem was very easy but after the Israel occupation they put
the checkpoints all around the places to separate the two countries from
each other.
After the Israel put the checkpoint to separate Beit Jala from
Jerusalem form each other, the main mention for the train was to take the
goods from those countries to Jerusalem to sell it to the stores and the
people to get useful from it. But the thing that the train don’t do it that the
people they are not allow to get into that train for a ride or like a
transportation from a country to another one.
When we finished looking to the train, our legs heed us to the city
Battir which is a really beautiful city to stay in and to live. This city is
near to the train. And what is more beautiful in that city is the green trees
all around the city, and the geographic location for that place is just
wonderful to live in.
Through the time that we set and kept walking in Battir we saw a
family they use to live in that city, but in the nikba war in 1948 these
people didn’t left their homes just because of the war but they stay inside
their homes until the time had to finish the war. But the people in that city
gave us the best sense of belonging to the country.
The people in Battir they are just nice people to deal with them by
talking and they explain everything happen in the war time and after the
war time that the people had to deal with, but they seem very strong for
staying in there city.
Because in different city they will be scared to stay in a city that
have war and they will be force to leave there city and to move to another
countries to live from the people that are doing the war and killing
innocent people.
Most of the people in Palestine in that time had to leave their
home and their cites for some while of a time until the war had to finish
in 1967, from the people that they force to leave their homes until now
they can come to Palestine to live in it. Because the Israel government
won't let them come to live in Palestine or in Jerusalem.
Now these people like to came live her and they really want to live
in Palestine to live and they wish also to get the Israel idea, which is the
prove that the people have the right to stay in Palestine or in Jerusalem.
In the end I like to talk now about something that I found it
interesting from the walk that we took, which is the railway that separate
Jerusalem from Beit Jala and the countries near it. Which that road called
area (C) and the road is the railway (N.60).And I think that road is
wrong to be there that will separate the countries from each other. But the
problem was that the Israel government said that road should be there
and must be to keep the Jerusalem area from the Palestine area.
