HOPE FOR ISRAEL PALESTINIAN PEACE PROCESS
Moving forward with Israel Palestinian confederation
Moving forward with Israel Palestinian confederation
Each one of us is responsible to contribute towards the common good of the society we live in. We must work towards creating cohesive societies, where no one has to feel insecure, apprehensive or fearful of the others.
Thank God for providing me the opportunity to do my share of the peace work involving Israel-Palestine, India-Pakistan and a few other conflicts. I am inspired by the words of Jesus, and the commitment was reinforced when I stood on Mt. Beatitude where Jesus delivered his sermon, Blessed are the peace makers, I felt the sermon deeply touching me. My other three inspirers are Prophet Muhammad, Mahatma Gandhi and Martin Luther King Jr.
I have been to Jerusalem, talked to groups of Israelis and Palestinians, Knesset Members and Palestinian Parliamentarians, traveled extensively in Israel, and God willing I will be going to Jerusalem again on 12.12.12 to witness the elections proceedings in Israel as a board member of the Israeli Palestinian Confederation, more about it appended below.
Who am I to worry about Israelis and Palestinians? What inspires me to be involved in the Israel Palestine conflict? The following is the story of my struggle to see a cohesive world, the story will take you through different emotions but at the end, I hope you feel a sense of hope. It is a three part story published in Huffington post. I have kept up with the conflict since I was a teenager, and had always wanted to contribute in the smallest possible way I can – Resulting in production of 5 Annual events called reflections on Holocaust and Genocides, with media coverage, and a full blog www.IsraelPalestineDialogue.com with 100 articles.

THE GOOD NEWS
It is a blessing to have met Josef Avesar who heads the IPC. It was also a pleasure to write a note about the book, included in the inside pages of the book, “Peace, a case for an Israeli Palestinian Federation” and the book was presented to Sean Hannity of Fox News, when I was on his show. Check out the website to purchase the bookwww.ipconfederation.org, it was released on United Nations day last year.
It’s a small step forward, but will gradually bring about a positive change. Nothing ever happens without making an effort. I am pleased to be a part of this organization and admire the leadership of Josef Avesar.
We have 633 candidates for Parliament and 117 for President. The elections will start in 72 days. To view the candidates or read about the Constitution, please go to our website: www.ipconfederation.org.
