In "Song of Becoming", Fadwa Tuqan describes how the lives of boys have changed due to the arising Israel-Arab conflict. She states that their happiness decreases as they become older (and become soldiers). At first they spoke the word of love from "Bible" and "Qur'an" (as they are philosophically similar) and afterwards used it to justify their religious beliefs and actions.
