The Silent Witness

by Rida Zaki

In the heart of Jerusalem, stands a silent witness - a majestic olive tree that has observed the unfolding tales of centuries. From the peaceful times under Umar bin al-Khattab's rule, to the tumultuous era of the crusaders and the triumphant return to peace led by Salahuddin Ayyubi, the tree has seen it all. Then comes Nooreh, a seven year old Palestinian girl who shows what is means to have everything taken away, yet stay strong.
