"I think discussion is always beneficial but I also think body language and the spirit of the human heart only presents itself in person and these dialogues,or coffees or meetings are always good putting a face on the differing voices and it takes…"

Gaza Freedom Marchers issue the "Cairo Declaration" to end Israeli Apartheid

(Cairo) Gaza Freedom Marchers approved today a declaration aimed at accelerating the global campaign for Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) against Israeli Apartheid.

Roughly 1400 activists from 43 countries converged in Cairo on their way to Gaza to join with Palestinians marching to break Israel's illegal siege. They were prevented from entering Gaza… Continue

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.

how are you doing?
I have read your blog and Larry's comment. what people must understand is - by blocking Gaza's borders we (Israel) are serving Hamas' , who is using the tunnels to bring in any kind of food (and else) to sell in exorbitant prices.

love and hugs

Appreciate your kind words.
Have you been able to work with any Palestinian craftsmen/women in your shop?
There are so many looking for markets to eek out a living.
I met some in Hebron, others in Jerusalem and know about others in Bethlehem.
I bet there are people on this site that could plug you in if they are not the artisans themselves.
Blessings,
Larry
