My personal story:
I am inspired to work for peace by the personal stories of Palestinians and Israelis whom I know. Our community on mepeace.org inspires me. I was born in New York in 1976, grew up in Israel and in California. A lot of time in Yeshiva. My views used to be right wing. When I was twenty I met a Palestinian for the first time. We were students at the London School of Economics. I decided to learn about the conflict. I thought I knew a lot until I arrived in Israel in 2004. I was stunned. I knew little. I am learning a little more every day and you teach me a great deal on this platform. I wanted to do something for peace and created mepeace for Palestinians and Israelis and others to connect and work together.
Why I want peace:
I am an eternal optimist! I want peace so that people can live fully, and enjoy their life. I want peace so there will be joy and not mourning. I want peace so we can know one another...
Birthday:
February 22, 1976
Interests and activities:
Internet, peace, the present... I love chess, music. I love people.
Something you didn't know about me:
I am one of two. My twin brother lives in Los Angeles.
How I found mepeace.org:
I founded mepeace.org. I wanted a place where I could meet people like you. I chose the name because it combines me + peace - enabling peacemakers to express themselves. It is also short for Middle East peace.
What I want to achieve here:
I want mepeace.org to serve as a platform for peacemakers, a place where people can meet the other side and know them. I want you to enjoy using this platform. I want it to be useful to you.

Hey, I had an idea for the website... I used to visit an online forum for foreign teachers and they had what they call 'Stickies.' Do you know about them? In case you don't, they're a series of threads, like 3 or 4, that give essential information about the site and can be commented on by members. Here's an example:

I found Stickies useful when I was looking for something I knew everyone else was also looking for. Just a thought.
