The West Bank is Quietly Burning"..About "Ssshh! The West Bank is Quietly Burning" :Step into the heat of Israel-Palestine—not as a pundit, but as an ordinary witness.In this raw, diary-driven account, Anthony Banks walks the Jerusalem Trail, plants olive trees in threatened West Bank villages, stands at the Gaza border as airstrikes darken the sky, and listens—really listens—to Israelis and Palestinians whose lives are shaped by a conflict the world thinks it understands.What you'll discover:A ground-level view of daily life behind the Separation Wall, in settlements, and across checkpoints—before and after October 7, 2023Honest reflections on trauma, fear, and hope from both sides, without false equivalence or easy answersThe quiet annexation of the West Bank unfolding beneath global attention focused on GazaWhy "it's not complicated" might be the most radical thing you can say—and doThis isn't a history textbook. It's a human story: of olive harvests interrupted, marathons run under military restriction, conversations in café courtyards, and moments that cannot be unseen. Banks writes as an activist who became one not by design, but by witnessing.If you're tired of headlines that flatten complexity, if you want to understand what "freedom of movement" really means, if you believe seeing the other person as fully human is the first step toward change—this book is for you.The West Bank is quietly burning. Will you look away, or will you see?Read now to join a journey that challenges, disturbs, and ultimately invites you to act.About the Author:Anthony Banks writes his new book to share and inform about the injustices and the lack of freedoms that exist in Israel-Palestine and just get worse. Quietly worse. Under the radar worse.He is as determined as they come to see the situation improve. He has spent time on both 'sides' in the past few years when the opportunity has permitted, to see and listen and absorb, and hopefully learn. He reflects on that from the privilege of having had conversations with many people there in the past 3 years, across a very broad spectrum of views, and he brings that back here to encourage us all to get involved.He lives in Yorkshire and manages to keep a day-job going when activism doesn't intrude.Copies of this book will be availble to buy at the event or from Hadeel online Here. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/edinburgh/anthony-banks-book-signing/100001997968278906 - **Event Categories**: art, literary-art, trips-adventures, sports, marathons - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 - **Event Highlights**: - Duration: 2 hours - Location: Hadeel UK Ltd - Languages: English ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: GBP ## Event venue details - **city**: Edinburgh - **state**: SC - **country**: United Kingdom - **location**: Hadeel UK Ltd - **lat**: 55.9524461 - **long**: -3.2050667 - **full address**: Hadeel UK Ltd, 123 George Street, Edinburgh, United Kingdom ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Anthony Banks Book Signing - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events4/banners/953c000fd5a0dd47d0e65170cfb6dcd9764b65f2be54589156d09e518f51ed0e-rimg-w1200-h1697-dcf8f8e8-gmir.jpg?v=1787259788 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Anthony Banks Book Signing being held? - **A:** Anthony Banks Book Signing takes place on Fri, 18 Sep, 2026 at 05:30 pm to Fri, 18 Sep, 2026 at 07:30 pm at Hadeel UK Ltd, 123 George Street, Edinburgh, United Kingdom. - **Q**: Who is organizing Anthony Banks Book Signing? - **A:** Anthony Banks Book Signing is organized by Hadeel/Palcrafts (UK). - **Q**: Who is this event for?
