Simha Baer left a comment for Oliver Haack"Hi Oliver , Shalom ! I'd wanted to say a few words about various aspects of projected Peace - or lack or it - here in the ME, but am now on someone else's super slow computer, so I'll really write another time ... Just saying thanks…"

Simha Baer replied to the discussion 'What are your thoughts on calling Israel an 'Apartheid State'? Is the Barrier an 'Apartheid Wall' or a 'Security Fence'?'"I don't think 'Israel' plans to become an "Apartheid State" but I wonder if its not going partly that way. The Wall I think is basically a security fence, put up reluntantly after years of the "Green (open) Border"…"
Profile Information
- My personal story:
- ... a Sufi ... (rather: attempting to be) A professional seeker of truth disliking hate politics, throughtout the world. Now as a genuine Jewish inter-disciplinary religious scholar, historian, Environmental Scientist,
and Political Scientist, specializing in M.E. and Balkan studies, I readily admit to holding certain independent maverick (sometimes politically incorrect) ideas how to achieve a real, lasting, permanant, spiritual and practical MEPeace ~ Sorry, Only 'cause I'm also a New-Ager ... concerned about our planet and humankind in general ~
- Why I want peace:
- Because that is the goal of civilization. It is also what I believe God wants from us. Peace is also a lot more interesting and nice to have in the world than wars and battlefield sufferings of innocent people. And I want it because I refuse to believe that politicians will bring Peace. Only us, We The People can bring a real peace on a grass roots level.
- Interests and activities:
- so many, too many in fact, sometime later ...
- Something you didn't know about me:
- I'm quite a liberal, but definately not a 'bleeding-heart liberal' . ... I accept Jesus as a Master Yogi Guru (and possible Savior for those in need) yet have nothing to do with Jews for Jesus. I like (aspects of) Islam better than my own born Jewish religion, yet think (historically) its taken a wrong turn long ago. ... Nor do I accept that male Homo perverts are normal. Nor do I believe monogamy is for everyone. (Biblical figures had one, two, or several wifes ~ and it diminished not their spiritual understanding.

- What I want to achieve here:
- To meet other liked minded persons on both sides, who know how to bypass the current (and regular) political peace-talk nonsense (in my opinion) and simply show how as regular & real people, we can achieve Peace and better healthier lives for ourselves here in the HolyLand. Amen

- The Symbol of Peace
The symbol of peace falls in the land of peace
Will we give them the chance to bring down the symbol of peace in the land of peace?
Many people know this is a plot of land full of olive trees.
And many Israeli and Palestinian families make a living from these trees
Especially that so many Palestinian families do not have another source of living,
except these olive trees
Days before the start of the harvest, especially in the West Bank,
What happened was expected, the start was of some settlers groups fighting Palestinian families
and preventing them to enter to the olive harvest,
Then the settlers started shooting the Palestinians, and set fire in the trees
Finally, with the help of European, American, Israeli, and other people from all over the world,
Some Palestinian families succeeded to collect their olives.
So, I am the address to thank all those who helped these families and brought them happiness,
And say to the settlers: We will not let you bring down the symbol of peace
For the olive trees are the symbol of peace in the land of peace
סמל השלום
נופל סמל השלום בארץ השלום
האם לתת להם הזדמנות להפיל סמל השלום בארץ השלום?
הרבה אנשים יודעים שזה מגרש מלא עצי זית.
ומשפחות רבות של ישראלים ופלסטינים מתפרנסים מהעצים האלה.
במיוחד לכל כך הרבה משפחות פלסטיניות אין מקור הכנסה ,
רק עצי הזית האלה.
ימים לפני תחילת המסיק ובמיוחד בגדה המערבית.
מה שקרה היה צפוי, בהתחלה כמה קבוצות של יהודים נלחמו
במשפחות הפלסטיניות כדי למנוע מהם להיכנס אל מסיק הזיתים
אז פתחו המתנחלים באש על הפלסטינים ושרפו עצים שלהם.
בעזרה של אנשים מן האחוד האירופי, אמריקה, ישראלים ומכל ארצות העולם, הצליחו בסוף כמה משפחות פלסטיניות לאסוף את הזיתים שלהם................
לפיכך . אני הכתובת של תודה רבה לכל מי שעזר למשפחות הללו והביא שמחה ללבם....
ואמרו למתנחלים לא ניתן לכם להוריד את סמל השלום
כי עצי הזית הם סמל השלום בארץ השלום

- A True Story By Faisal Al-Hatib
I am a Palestinian Arab from Hizmeh, a village between Jerusalem and Ramallah. When I was 15 years old I fought against the Israeli Occupation in search of freedom. At that time I thought every Jewish person, whether soldier or citizen, man or woman, young or old, should be killed. I rejected the right for any Jew to live and every Jew was a target. I was just a kid, believe me, and I didn’t understand anything about politics or the Arab-Israeli conflict. I was arrested and sat in jail for 12 years. This was during the first intifada from 1987. At that time nobody talked about peace but only of violence. I matured during my time in jail. I started studying and reading books on politics, literature, poetry, and about the Madrid Conference.
It gave me hope to live in peace and dignity. I learned that violence only breeds violence and that peace is the only solution for the two nations, the only way for both to have a respectful and beautiful future. We live on the same land. We are neighbors. We drink the same water and both pray to a monotheistic God. We must live in peace on the basis of religion for God and land for everyone.
