Summary
A library in a Firing Zone? A little village called Al Aqaba opened the Ibn Rushd Library inside Israel's Firing Zone 900 to provide a learning sanctuary for nearly 400 children in this area. Named after Ibn Rush'd, the 12th-century Islamic philosopher who believed in rationalism over fundamentalism, the library boasts a wonderful librarian, a large collection of books in Arabic and English, good light, and a big work table. Help provide ebooks, a music library and a projector for movie nights.
