Tearful Triumph

By Robert Marshall Booth

The largest military mobilization in Israeli history since the Six Day War has begun. Bethlehem will soon be under siege. Bashira, a young Palestinian Christian nurse seeks to hold her family, and those in her charge, together amidst the increasing pressures exerted by the IDF Israeli Defense Forces].

Mike Olson, a young but trusted American TV broadcast journalist, has been given special access to the IDF command headquarters. As Operation Defensive Shield unfolds, Mike becomes immersed in the battle, witnessing firsthand the pain and struggle on both sides. To his surprise, this assignment becomes more than a news story when he meets Bashira.

Tragedy strikes, and Bashira faces despair that seeks to destroy her faith in Christ. Her unrelenting determination leads her down an unthinkable path. As Mike grows in his affection for her, he finds himself drawn towards what he cannot understand.

Despite their differences, Bashira and Mike dare to take the hard road toward reconciliation-whatever it may require.

Based on a true account of a young woman's experience during the violent escalation of the Second Intifada in the spring of 2002, Tearful Triumph is a story for the ages that reverberates across cultures and time.
