Duality exists, comfortably uncomfortable, in the West Bank, where Israeli settlements vie for land with Palestinian villages. Despite the fear the media portrays, West Bank offers many safe possibilities for travel, beyond the traditional one-dimensional narrative. Visit a Palestinian brewery and meet locals. See a Jewish settlement, and then visit the Palestinian village that lies nearby. Only by traveling through the beautiful, rocky terrain of this land can one understand the complexity of the West Bank’s geopolitical situation. Home to both Israelis and Palestinians, and especially strategic to Israel, a tour through the area is the necessary key to moving beyond abstract perceptions of the conflict, to an authentic dual narrative.
