Gaza Sderot: Life in Spite of Everything (Group description)

Gaza (Palestine) and Sderot (Israel): Report on the life of men, women and children in two cities on the Israeli Palestinian border. Tell about the reality on both sides. Despite of many dangers, air bombings and rocket attacks, those people never stop working, loving, and dreaming. Life despite of everything.

During two months short videos (2 minutes each) on Gaza and Sderot. Every day, one video from Palestine, the other one from Israel. One without the other only would show part of the reality.

This program was broadcasted daily from the 26th of October to the 23th of december 2008.
You will find 40 episodes (80 videos).

Hi Ayse.
Unfortunatly, it is the Israeli government that is not allowing for the people of Gaza to visit Sderot and vice versa, since there is a conflict that is going on, and Hamas is in power.
Maybe we can see a change drastically soon :)

nobody gets the point here
why Sderot people dont invite their neighor from Ghaza to live with them ?
200.000 Ghazanian lost their housing Sderot area is huge enough, or ?

I will be reading, rather than talking. I intend to focus on books, and also use some internet sites. Ankara evden eve nakliyat şirketi olarak bizler sizlere en kaliteli hizmeti veriyoruz.evden eve nakliyat
evden eve ankara firması olarak With any luck, you won’t be hearing much from me, for about 6 months, maybe longer. Once I would have said, evden eve ankara kaliteden ödün vermeden evden eve yapıyoruz.
ankara evden eve szilerde kaliteyi ucuza lamak için bize başvurun.
This year I’m planning to become more familiar with political and historical issues in Israel and Palestine. evden eve evden eve nakliye firmaları.
1 year, and this war will be over. (That is the way I thought for about 40 years.) Now, I know better than to think that..!!!
We decided to choose an age at with we would like to die, rather than suffer. My cousin chose 71, which alarmed me, since she is already 65. I chose 75. A day or so later, I started to think, what is it I still want to see or do with my life ?? I decided I would like to see a satisfactory resolution to the Palestinian problem, in my life-time.

And I bear all the feelings of regret on what happened in Gaza want the continuation of life as one and we want the people of the Middle East at the beginning of the General Conference and of the coexistence and dialogue between religions and races in the Middle East (Jordan, Palestine, Israel. Syria, Lebanon) and We have this idea I had after the war in Gaza because we want to live and our children live far from the war want peace between the Arabs and Israel and I want to be young people who start coexistence By this, because the future is ours and not for the outdated and backward ideas and reactionary
We want peace in the Middle East and coexistence between nations, therefore I hope that you are the advocates of this ideology that does not skimp on the ideas and opinion and the support and advice and guidance or in any way you can help me and in the future to achieve peace between the Arabs and Israel for the future

Stewart Mills Comment by Stewart Mills on January 13, 2009 at 5:57pm
Thanks Stephanie,

For starting this group. This film project is an invaluable way to help humanise reality for everyday Gazans and residents of Sderot.

The project is a fantastic way to help build empathy for each others story.

Donald Shriver, described the importance of empathy in peace-building as follows:

"Empathy for the enemy, before, during, or after the violence of war is an essential ingredient to the healing of enmity…To empathise with enemies is to weaken one’s readiness to kill them."
Donald W. Shriver, Jr., An Ethic for Enemies: Forgiveness in Politics, New York, Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1995, p. 125.

Let us hope that each community can build empathy for the other, to humanise each other and support winning the hearts and minds of each other rather than resorting to counter-productive military/violent options which just perpetuate fear, anger, hate and vengeance.

No, I don't represent anyone - at least not yet! I do think JVP is a really great organization and resource. Once I graduate college this May I will figure out where the Lord wants me to go from there. : )
