It was about a year ago that I started to manage “Israel loves Palestine”. I knew all about “Israel loves Iran” page and I loved the concept, and then I found the “Palestine loves Israel” page and I wondered if “Israel loves Palestine” existed.

The page existed but it was not so active, so I contacted the Administrator that was a Jewish-American, and he told me that he was waiting for an Israeli to come and take the page from him because it should be managed by an Israeli – and so I did.

For one year I am managing “Israel loves Palestine”, during the war with Gaza, during the occupation in the west Bank, during the hate actions from both sides. I am trying as much as I can to combine the reality with creating a new reality, how to use the existing sad facts about our lives in order to change minds. In the past 5 years I have been practicing yoga and meditation, and those tools guide me in my work, and help me to speak in a common language for all: love and understanding.

I must say that with the time there are more and more positive reactions from Israelis and Palestinians on this page and less and less hate.
As I see it , each and every one of us is a part of the whole, and what I am doing is what any one can do: throw a stone into the water in order to create waves.

I have always believed in the “bottom up” power for change, and I am glad to take part in that in my personal life. Since I have started doing that, I met many Palestinian friends, I learned more about their lives, and once that happens you are becoming truly a part of a whole, its no longer about me, or my country, its about people, humans.

WE are all ONE!
