מסר מלאמה אבו ערקוב ביום השואה:״אני מזדהה עמוקות עם כל יהודי באבל שלו היום״

To all my dear Israeli friends on Shoah Day

I have done few "painful" readings since this morning about Shoah day. It saddened me as well as my kids to read and listen to the testimonies and heart breaking memories of those sad times. I am so sorry that a chapter of your human history has to be about precious lost lives instead of being about the joys of life.

I deeply sympathise with every single grieving Jewish today.

Let us work together on humane levels so that both peoples of Palestine and Israel don't have to bitterly explain another Shoah day for our beloved kids in the future. Let's all raise our kids to love, understand and appreciate each other....let's give them hope that a less painful future is possible and most importantly, let's help them see the grace and blessings of living side by side in peace and comfort.

Tonight, I hope you will do the same, I am going to talk to my kids about this day and about how important it is to "see" any " other" as a human being. I hope that your kids will come to understand that we as Palestinians are life-loving people who want a better and a safer life for our children.

Please pass my message of love to your families.
