This is the best thing I`ve read about Israelis and Palestinians in a long time. But there must be hundreds of stories like this that could be written given that there are so many people dedicated to understanding and to hope.
But I have a question: How come all the hundreds of Jewish peace groups around the world - many with very big memberships - aren`t given more coverage and do they get an invite to attend the World Jewish Conference and other gatherings on an equal footing with other lobby groups - to balance things out? eg Not in My Name http://www.nimn.org Rabbis for Human Rights http://rhr.israel.net Jews for Justice http://jfjfp.com/ Jews Against the Occupation http://www.jatonyc.org/ Jewish Peace Fellowship http://www.jewishpeacefellowship.org/ T`Selem http://www.btselem.org/English/ Bet Shalom http://www.batshalom.org/ Israel Policy Forum http://www.israelpolicyforum.org/ and MANY MANY MORE |
