{"product_id":"mufawadat-505-days-in-hamas-captivity","title":"Mufawadat 505 Days in Hamas Captivity","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe harrowing story of Eliya Cohen’s life. Fifty meters underground, his body more like a skeleton than a living person, chained, humiliated, beaten, and often the victim of merciless mental abuse – there was one thing his captors could not take from him: the light within. The soul that lived, fought, and said thank you for every moment of survival.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMoufadat – negotiation – is the phrase that recurred again and again throughout his 505 days of captivity: negotiating his life and his release, between life and death; negotiating a piece of pita for him and his friends; negotiating between him and God; and imaginary conversations with Ziv, his girlfriend, who remained in the shelter where grenades were thrown and shots were fired indiscriminately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDay after day, psychological and physical struggles took place – between him and his captors, between the captors themselves, and between them and their leadership and the “street” outside. Eliya, with a stubborn faith destined to live, navigated them with determination, fighting to survive – and not to give up. Beyond being a breathtaking story, the book provides rare insights and tools for dealing with extreme situations; how to win when there is no chance, and how to hold on to hope – even when it seems to be the last – in order to rise back to the light.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SISU","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46302652792997,"sku":"0054600037391","price":58.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0558\/8860\/9445\/files\/Mufawadathebrewcover.jpg?v=1764014085","url":"https:\/\/www.israelbookshop.com\/products\/mufawadat-505-days-in-hamas-captivity","provider":"IsraelBookShop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
