A Word about our Youth Group after a Year of our First Meeting…
by Ziad Khalil Abu Zayyad ~ April 21st, 2008. Filed under: The Youth Group.
Before almost a year our group members met together to travel to Fiji to film a documentary that was made by Tony Robbins about them and the relations that were created between them.
First I would like to thank Tony for the chance that we had because of him and made us all meet together and discover the gift that each one of us has. I am pleased to say that the work that we did together and we are still doing is an amazing work.
Our group gave a great example of the possibility of making peace between Israelis and Palestinians. The one unique thing that made us special is the way we treated each other, helped each other, supported each other, and protected each other while we were traveling around the world as if we were one family forgetting about our nationality and beliefs and only remembering that we are human beings.
Our discussions that we had and still have until today show how much we respect each other and feel the pain and suffering that each one of us had or their people had.
The passions that we had made us search for the ways of reaching peace in an amazing way; we always asked each other and wanted to learn about the different culture and beliefs we have.
I respect each one of you for your efforts and work that you are still giving until today in order to make something new for the sake of peace between our peoples, I respect you for the support you gave me and the strong friendship that I have with each one of you.
Gal you really prove that peace is wanted by a lot of Israelis and I am sure that you will become a great Israeli leader that will help in leading your people towards peace and security.
Areej you always remind me of the Palestinian refugees and the real strong Palestinian woman that is ready to sacrifice anything in order to bring peace for her people.
Janelle you are the most beautiful and smart Jewish girl that I ever met and will always
respect for your honesty and true effort for seeking peace.
Marianne you are the example of sacrificing that make us all remember how much it is important to make peace in order to stop losing all of these innocent people that died as patriots and martyrs.
Shira you are the honesty of this group that always said what you believed in and always wanted to know the answers for the questions you have and learned through your life about your neighbors.
Fawaz your work that you do for your people is the real sign of being a patriot that sacrifices his life for the sake of improving his people’s life.
Ben I will never forget your courage that you had when you talked about what you went through your life and the teachings that you learned from your background, Peace can be done my friend although we all have been taught and trained according to what our communities are.
Rasha you will become a real ambassador that can lead the negotiations and relations between the two Israeli and Palestinian peoples, you care for each one of the group and they care for you.
George my dear friend, I have learned from you a lot and you have learned from the group a lot, you are a true example of a leading and smart Palestinian and you will give a lot for the sake of ending the Israeli Palestinian conflict.
I wish for each one of you to keep on leading in your lives and I promise you that you will become the most loving and understanding leaders that will make the dreams of their peoples a reality that they will live because you proved a lot in a short time, I respect you and I support you…God Bless You.
