Mariam Barghouti travels to Nablus to meet the family of Ibrahim al-Nablusi, who was assassinated by Israeli forces on August 9. Al-Nablusi became a legend in the Palestinian generation born at the peak of the Second Palestinian Intifada. Although news reports hailed the young fighter as a “top commander” and “senior militant,” al-Nabulsi lived another life with his friends and family. “When we used to ask him why he kept going, he would reply, ‘I am reviving the spirit of resistance of an entire generation’,” Ibrahim’s sister Shahd al-Nabulsi tells Mondoweiss.
