Why Collect Monster Energy Cans
Maikel Nabil Sanad
is an Egyptian veterinarian of 25 years, graduated from the University of Asyut, and now officially a conscientious objector to military service in the Egyptian armed forces.
Pacifists like him and like many Israelis (Millions) are the best hope for a future of peace in the Middle East. Of course, for those who are not interested in pacifism, but simply use it to attack the Jewish state, the guy is a spy or a traitor directly. This is called the late Vittorio Arrigoni, who was killed by Palestinian Islamists bad as we all know, are different from the Palestinian Islamist Hamas's good because the latter only kill Jews.
Maikel says that:
"As a kid I read a lot about the Arab-Israeli conflict. I understood that the Arab media hide the facts that support the Israeli position. I tried to contact Israeli activists and began to ask questions like 'Is it true that Israel is a militaristic state? " or, 'Is it true that Israel wants to expand and reach the Nile? This is how I learned. I understood a lot about the state, society and its laws. Many Arabs living in Israel really told me how they are treated and how much more prefer to live in Israel by any Arab state. I read about Israeli peace organizations. "(Continue reading Ynet)
Hopefully people can continue to learn and drop the veils of ignorance that feeds the prejudice and hatred. For now, only be done via the Internet, and read the notice , but sooner or later there will come a day when citizens of Arab and Israeli citizens can sit and have a coffee and listen to another's pain, have a hug and build together.
