WAR WHAT WAR
October 2012
Elections days are coming here in Israel.
To win, they gone spread the fear of war,
They are saying: “nuclear-bomb-Iran-war-war- war..”
The fear of war is good in Israel and in Iran, cause when people are afraid they don’t ask questions.
The only thing in their way….
is us, saying we love each other, Now more then ever.
It’s the first time so many Ethiopian Israelis are on the streets all together, i see many people here that i don’t know, but i feel they are part of my tribe, i feel proud….
They always say Ethiopian are quiet and peaceful…..not today…..i’m feeling full of anger, i’m so frustrated….
The Ethiopian soldier last week, attacked by police….it’s just one case,… it’s happening every day, all the time. So we came to TelAviv today to make it stop, to let people know about it. We were born here, we’re giving our souls to this country, it is time that this country give us back some love.
So can i take a picture of you?
Why do you ask all these questions and why do you need
a picture…..you sound a bit like the police…?
I’m not , i just like to tell stories
Ok, but you can’t show our faces…you never know

PEACE it’s VIRAL
PEACE starts with the people, one person at a time. Today it’s easier than ever to connect and reach out to one another. We can talk, we can meet, and we can start a new friendship without even leaving our homes just by the click of a button. One new person, One new connection. Peace is when we see and treat each other as people. All we have to do is talk.
