This is not my conflict.
Everyone has to be involved.
This is our message to Americans.
I started watching you around the Iraq war.
And I remember, yes.
You look as young and beautiful.
And I remember, because most American media was super pro the war.
Even the liberals were very pro the war.
And you took a stand to criticize that war and say, war is wrong.
And it was a comedy show.
And I'm like, OK.
He used his comedy show to stand for something.
i can use my ability being a person to do and stand for something everyone can do it whether you are a comedian whether you are in tourism whether you are in politics none of us really have an excuse and we lost our family members we know the price for it people don't have to wait until they lose somebody in their family to stand up for justice that's such a beautiful statement and i want to follow the planet because it's something you make in the book
And it's a travel.
So what we did in the book is a journey.
And we want to invite everyone to travel with us.
And Samih Al Qasim was a Palestinian poet, wrote this incredible poem called Travel Tickets and says, the day I'm killed, my killer rifling through my pockets.
will find travel tickets, one to peace, one to the fields and the rain, and one to the conscience of a humankind.
So I beg you, my dear killer, do not waste such a thing.
Do not ignore these tickets.
