Two people who work together and happen to be a Muslim (Souheila) and a Jew (David). Both have their roots in the Middle East. Both want to see a lasting peace in the region. Both are willing to talk to one another and to the world about all the misrepresentations and difficult issues that surround Jewish-Muslim relations. Walls of division, suspicion, hatred and fear have been created over the last decades. This is an attempt to bring down those walls.

There are many ways

Yes, I think there are many ways. But I think that trust and confidence is low. People are not willing to move forward. Nonetheless, it should be noted that mosques, churches and synagogues have been dialoguing in various parts of the country. There is an exchange happening, but it is not at a point of critical mass. It is low-level and while such exchanges are opening hearts and minds, there is always more to be done. The need is always there.

Perhaps writing a poem, painting a portrait, composing music, planting olive trees in the promised land.  Maybe we start a SIRIUS radio station that can be heard every where and where we just talk and get others to call, email and chat with us!
