From inside a bus parked next to the rubble of a devastating building in the northern Gaza Strip, the teacher Talal bin Rabee lives in his days, displaced, he lost everything, and he remained alone in the face of a bloody, ruthless reality.
This teacher – who is known among his students as “Abu Al -Amjad” – dreamed of raising a generation of Palestinian children believed in peace, and seeks to achieve in the midst of chaos, but the last war cut that dream from its roots, and buried it under the ruins of the houses that collapsed on their owners.
On one of the days of the escalation, while Talal was sheltering inside his bus, near one of the homes of displacement, a missile fell on the adjacent house.
Talal was not injured, but the wreckage covered the surrounding cars, and killed and wounded those near him.
The teacher talks about the scene amazed: torn bodies, truncated parties, and faces that are no longer known, describing the moment as “out of time.” He did not realize whether he was alive or just a survivor waiting for a deferred fate.
Talal recovers the scene times, and says that what is happening today in Gaza goes beyond the limits of logic, and embodies a prophetic talk from a time when the standards are mixed, the sincere is lied and the liar is believed, the traitor is entrusted and the Secretary is betrayed.
But despite everything, Professor Talal does not think about leaving the sector.
“I will not immigrate,” he says steadfastly, and he who lost his home, friends and students, but he adheres to the soil of the place where he lived everything. For him, the departure is not an option, but rather a waiver of the meaning of steadfastness.
In Gaza, death is no longer the end, but it has become a daily detail in people’s lives.
As for Talal, it is not just a teacher who survived the bombing, but rather a living testimony on a generation that tries to remain, despite everything that is intended to be broken.
