'저는 그들의 땅을 지키기 위하여 싸웠던 인디안들의 이야기를 기억합니다. 백인들이 그들의 신성한 숲에 도로를 만들기 위하여 나무들을 잘랐습니다. 매일밤 인디안들이 나가서 백인들이 만든 그 길을 해체하면 그 다음 날 백인들이 와서 도로를 다시 짓곤 했습니다. 한동안 그 것이 반복되었습니다. 그러던 어느날, 숲에서 가장 큰 나무가 백인들이 일할 동안 그들 머리 위로 떨어져 말과 마차들을 파괴하고 그들 중 몇몇을 죽였습니다. 그러자 백인들은 떠났고 결코 다시 오지 않았습니다….' (브루스 개그논)

Image Fwd: picture of amity and peace

'picture of amity and peace'

The image was thankfully sent from a Japanese friend who wishes for the peace in the Palestine and Israel, on Dec. 26, 2009. Thought to be good to share.

“Attached is a scanned image of the old postal stamp I have kept
since 30 years ago, when I had a male Jew correspondent in Israel.
Around that time, there was an integrated education at some kind of
educational facility somewhere in Israel or Palestine
for children of Jews and Palestinians in the same classrooms.
I don't know that kind of education still exists but I hope so.
In the stamp, a Jew in black and an Arab in a traditional clothing
and a modern Jew? and the children of respective tribes stand in amity.”

Otherwise, Ten Thousand Things blog has uploaded the beautiful letter by the Palestinian Christians and work by an artist, Lydia Venieri on the Israeli & US phosphorus bombings of Gaza & Iraq. Good to share with all as well.

For the Japanese friend's solidarity call for GAZA peace march, please see HERE. The International Action Center has also called for the solidarity march.
