A new approach to peacemaking? Obama. Photo by Baz Ratner/REUTERS.
Earlier today, President Barak Obama landed in Israel, for the first time since he first got elected in 2008, and for the third time in general. He is scheduled to meet with Israeli Prime Minister, Binyamin Netanyahu, as well as with Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas and Prime Minister Salam Fayyad in Ramallah. The main goal of this visit is to "check the burning territory," and to see if there's a way to rush the peace process, that seemed to have gotten a bit into tan endless vertigo.
But other than that, there is something else Obama is planning to do: he will speak in Jerusalem to an audience mainly of Israeli students. According to reports in Israeli newspapers, Obama was offered to make a speech in front of politicians, but said he'd rather meet with the young Israeli public. This, to me, was a shift of opinion.
I am a big fan of the American culture and way of life, and really believe in the American formula to success in everything. However, I always had a slight problem with the American intervention. I always believed (and still do,) that the only ones who can solve the problems and the conflicts are we, the people from the inside, belonging to both sides, for we are the ones with the best understanding of the reality we live in. I believe that there is no good in judging a situation far from you. Just like I can't tell you what is best for the States, I believe that you can't really know what is best for Israel, unless you've been here, and got to really know the surface.
Moreover, I believe that what we hear from politicians while afar is as close to reality as an article coming from the foreign press. I don't believe that our politicians really represent us, and that a conversation with the people is the only way to know what the majority of people really think. That is why I believe that while Netanyahu and Mahmoud Abbas are the ones who actually need to shake hands, it is we, the people, who can make peace happen. That is why Obama's announcement about speaking to Israeli students completely changes my opinion on his visit.
No doubt that this visit is important. I never had a doubt that the Leader of the Free World must visit his allies personally, especially this very close, very tight partner in business and in commitment to security. This partner is the only Democracy in the Middle East, which means this partner has a lot of responsibility in maintaining stability in the area. But this obligation to visit Israel was all I saw in this visit.
I saw no meaning in sentences such as "sitting with both leaders", "trying to solve the problems," and by "no meaning" I don't mean "no intention," but "no actual chance for results." The attempt to get both Netanyahu and Mahmoud Abbas to talk, again, was not something I thought could lead anywhere, that is hadn't already led to. After all, when it comes to talking to both leaders, there is nothing new under the sun- it is something Obama is doing on a weekly basis, and not much would change if he would actually be present in person.
The difference was made with the announcement on the speech in front of the students. That announcement turned Obama's visit to a meaningful one. This request to speak to the people was the proof I needed to know that Obama might actually want this peace to happen, and is willing to put a true effort into turning the dream into a reality. This announcement showed me that, like me, Obama believes that peace is in OUR hands, the people. It showed me that he truly wishes to get a better understanding of life here, not from the mouths of politicians, but from the people who live this conflicted reality every day. I sure hope that he will meet with Palestinian students as well, one way or another, so that he would be able to see the whole picture before sitting down with both leaders to what might become a different, more optimistic, peace talk.
Obama's visit might mark the beginning of a new era. I don't know him very well, and I don't have any special feelings or opinions of him, but his intention of meeting students, and not politicians, gives me hope. May tomorrow bring with it a new dawn.

Charlie VaHetzi (Charlie and a Half) is a 1974 Israeli comedy and cult movie. The movie was directed by Boaz Davidson and stars Israeli comedians Yehuda Barkan and Ze'ev Revach. If you like Israeli culture, this iconic film is it. It belongs to the long list of "Israeli classics" from the 60's and 70's called "Bourekas Films", which were defined by journalist Uri Klein as a "peculiarly Israeli genre of comic melodramas or tearjerkers... based on ethnic stereotypes."
Charlie Va'Hetzi is one big comic relief which tells the story of the special relationship between Charlie, a professional street con man who passes himself off as a rich businessman, and Miko, a child who spends his time with Charlie instead of going to school. The plot follows Charlie's attempt to conquer the heart of Gila, a rich girl whose parents try to matchmake her to an American millionaire somewhat against her will.

It will take an effort, it may hurt a little on the way, but it CAN bring peace one step closer. Drawn by: The Chalfine Brothers.In the past couple of weeks, I have encountered a record number of hateful messages, written by Palestinians, calling me a terrorist and a killer and wishing for my immediate death. Up until a couple of weeks ago, I thought that the center of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict was the decision makers on both sides. I thought it all revolved around the "peace conversations" between Netanyahu and Mahmoud Abbas, and that it is the only way for this complicated, everlasting conflict to end. I thought it was all about the agreement between the two on a proper division of this small, yet coveted piece of land. Turns out, I was wrong. In the past couple of weeks I slowly came to the understanding that in order for this conflict to end, it takes more than two leaders to want to solve it, it takes two communities to want to solve it.
In order for this conflict to be solved, both Israelis and Palestinians must come to the full realizations that this is, in fact, a conflict, which means that both sides take an equal part of it. It takes two to tango, and only the realization of that by both sides, the ability to stand up and admit that there is not one victim and one aggressor, will push our leaders to end this more quickly.
In case I did not make it clear in previous posts, I believe that Israel has a part in this conflict. Israel is not a sole victim, and not an angel. In fact, Israel makes up a whole 50% in this conflict. Surprisingly, the same goes for the Palestinians. If you think you got an article from a paper or a website to prove me wrong, I encourage you to think about where the article is being taken from, and how it is most likely that there is another article, written by a different person, that will show the exact opposite point of view on the exact same matter. Media on both sides constantly tries to make "them" seem like the ultimate criminals/terrorists/ lowlifes, etc. That is why we all need to put these articles aside and just talk.
I truly believe that if instead of always searching for "facts" to prove the other side wrong, instead of insulting and wishing bad things for each other, we must try and listen, and everything will change. We must not only open our mouths, but also our ears, being truly prepared to take criticism, and also say ours. We must take into account not only our personal experiences, and instead of trying to insult and hurt, try and come up with a solution.
Both sides must understand that they are also hurting, and not only defending. Deaths occur on both sides. But instead of counting which side has more bodies, we should try and celebrate life in order to make this area a better place. It probably won't happen today, or next week, or even a decade from now, but if this message will slowly sink into all of our hearts, we might find out the solution is more possible than we think.
I don't hate Palestinians, and I truly wish for them to live properly in a land of their own. But I also love Israel, and strongly believe it had the right to defend itself against those who wish to destroy it and spread all the Jews back all over the world. It is not Palestinians that try to destroy us, it is a small group of haters within them, just like there is a small group of haters within us who wish there will be no Palestinians. What we must do, is don't let these haters take over social networks and public opinion. When they do that, they make us believe that the other side, as a whole, is an aggressor and hater and that "there is no one to talk to."
I believe there is someone to talk to. More than one. It was only a year ago when we learned that most Iranians and Israelis actually love each other and wish no harm to one another. Who says we won't find that fact true in this case as well? It is not an easy process, I know. I am not a conflict expert, but I don't think it takes one to realize that all conflicts can be solved. This conflict is very complicated and has many layers, and true, the only ones who can really put an end to this are our leaders. However, right now, they have no true encouragement to truly solve the problems.
Our leaders are afraid that their people will not support any compromise, which will be needed in ending the conflict. This is where we step in. This is where we take a deep breath, put our pride aside, and admit: "my side is also to blame on this, just like the other side is." After that, the road to an honest, open, patient conversation is a short one. But while it may be short, once we will get on it, there will be no shortcuts. We must understand that as well.
I am a stubborn person. Always have been. I find it extremely hard to admit I am not a 100% right. But right now I am in a place where I think I am ready to try and open my ears, not only my mouth, and listen. I want a better future. I want this conflict to end. Who's with me?

Expanding "Insights"
The Israeli "Insights" project, which includes a special production of a song made entirely from Holocaust survivors' messages to the next generation, keeps growing. The Israeli Students Union and the Ministry of Senior Citizens has announced their cooperation with "Insights", in finding holocaust survivors who wish to share their wisdom and students who will visit the survivors, document them and help them realize their legal rights.
Another big organization who joined the project is Taglit (Birthright), which is bringing young Jews to Israel for a free of charge ten-day tour, in order to connect them with Israel and Israelis and help strengthen their Jewish identity. Taglit will pitch in in collecting testimonies from Holocaust survivors around the globe. Taglit will also assist in finding the artist who will perform the finished "Insights" song, and will host him or her in one of its big yearly concerts.

Rona Kenan was born on 26 July 1979 to the late author and journalist Amos Kenan and scholar Nurith Gertz. At the age of 18 she was spotted as a "discovery" in the Israeli music industry and ever since, her influence on our music scenery just kept growing and growing.
In 2004 she released her debut album, Breathing Down to Zero. In early 2007 she released her second album, Through Foreign Eyes, where, again, all tracks are original. In 2009 she released her third album, Shirim Leyoel ("Songs for Yoel"), a concept album inspired by her father's life story. In 2011, she released her fourth album, Hamraot VeNechitot (Takeoffs and Landings). She writes her own melodies and lyrics, and sings both in Hebrew and in English. All four albums were a major success, and won her several music awards, as a creator as well as a singer. In 2005 she became a "chosen artist" of the Israel Cultural Excellence Foundation. Kenan is openly gay, and is also considered an icon for the Gay and Lesbian community in Israel.
In my opinion, Kenan has the most beautiful female voice in Israel. A tender, touching, unique voice, which I never stop enjoying. A big part of our mainstream music, yet so different than the rest. Now, you can share the enjoyment with me…

Shouldn't stop making jokes, but must take responsibility while broadcasting to a wide audience. Rivers.On the February 25th episode of the E! Entertainment's television show "Fashion Police", comedian Joan Rivers made a remark on Heidi Klum's Academy Awards dress, saying: “The last time a German looked this hot was when they were pushing Jews into the ovens.” The Anti-Defamation League (ADL), demanded that Rivers apologize for her "vulgar and hideous" remark, but the comedian refused. According to CNN, Rivers told HLN's "Showbiz Tonight" that: "It's a joke No. 1. No. 2 it is about the Holocaust. This is the way I remind people about the Holocaust. I do it through humor."
Joan Rivers' vulgar remarks are not new. In fact, I assume that the first word that comes to mind to most people when they hear Rivers' name is "vulgar." I ,personally, admire that. I think that Joan Rivers speaks for the kind of women who are powerful, confident, and not afraid to grab any man's private parts. She is a strong woman, and she is a part of prime time television, which is what makes her a feminist icon, in my opinion. When she makes my jaw drop in shock with her very non politically correct comments and remarks, I want to stand up and clap my hands in honor of her confidence and bravery (right after I finish digesting that her words were actually said on television.)
However, some things are not a laughing matter. The holocaust is at the top of that list. The holocaust, under any circumstances, is not a joke, even 70 years later. A joke about the holocaust is not like a joke about Jews, or gays or women or Israel. It is not "offensive" or "so-not-funny", or a taboo and it is not Anti-Semitism, it is way beyond that.
The way I see it, when Rivers said that it is a way to remind people about the holocaust, she was wrong. I don't think that a joke about the ovens Jews were pushed into is a way to make people remember one of the darkest times in the world's history. Making jokes about the holocaust on broadcast television is letting people believe that it wasn't really that bad, and that at the end of the day, it was actually pretty funny, all that oven-shoving...
It took me a trip to Poland to truly understand just how terrible this genocide was. It took me seeing a building full of shoes, small chambers colored with Zyclon-B gas and covered with nails scratches, and one big pile of ashes to truly understand how there was no chance for the 6 million, who their only crime was being different than the ideal type that someone decided should be the only one to live on this planet. It gave me an understanding that all of this was performed not by monsters, but by human beings to realize how important it is to remember and never forget.
Many people will live a lifetime without that visit to Poland, and probably won't put too much effort in reading and learning more about the holocaust. Those people will only rely on what they see and hear, and that is how they will remember the holocaust. My worst fear is that someday, decades, maybe centuries from today, all that will be remembered from the holocaust is jokes. I fear that in this day, the claim that many of the pictures and videos that were taken during the holocaust were being edited andphotoshopped will become the mainstream opinion, and that most people will think that "it actually wasn't that terrible." I fear that in this time, a leader will rise and convince everyone that a certain group of people is the source of all problems, and that it would be best for everyone to just place them apart from the rest. I fear that no one will remember what truly happened last time, and that everyone will nod in agreement…
You may say I am exaggerating. After all, it was just one harmless joke, and no one will take is seriously. You are right. It was just one joke. But the fact that this story did not make much of a noise, means that many people were light-headed about it, and just let it pass as "a bit offensive," just like all of Rivers' jokes. Many people, who don't take much of an interest in the holocaust, heard this joke, were shocked for a few seconds, but then just went back to enjoying the show. Next time, they may also laugh at such jokes, slowly forgetting that it WAS that horrible…
I, personally, don't laugh at holocaust jokes, but many of my friends do. I can understand that, because sometimes it helps to laugh about things that are difficult to handle. Within the Jewish community, and especially in Israel, we are surrounded by the holocaust. We read, we hear, we ask questions and always want to learn more. We understand the importance of remembering and never forgetting, and amongst ourselves, we sometimes tend to make jokes. We don't tell them in public, and we don't tell them to people who don't have enough knowledge of the holocaust, because we don't want them to take it light-headedly. Joan Rivers may also understand the importance of remembering the holocaust, but she must take responsibility and understand that her many viewers do not.
Unlike jokes about Jews or gays or women or Hispanics or any minority in today's society, jokes about an historic event, that many cannot currently look at and understand that the matter of the joke was not really true, have serious repercussions. It is not "offensive" or "not-so-funny", and it's not Anti-Semitism. It is being indifferent about the holocaust, which is something we cannot let time turn us into…
