And when there is hate, unfortunately, we, mankind, humanity, can do horrible things to each other.
So traveling in South America, we said to ourselves, Shlomit, my wife and I, why not building bridges and use tourism as a way for...
for a dialogue, for interaction, for creating a shared vision between Israelis and Palestinians.
And then that's why in 2005, when I was 30, I went for the first time to Nazareth, the city of Annunciation, the largest Palestinian city within Israel, but we've never been there before.
And we just fell in love.
It was love from first sight.
And a few months after, we opened the first guest house ever in the old city of Nazareth,
who was the first pioneering tourism enterprise that
paved the way to many local entrepreneurs.
So in the last 20 years, I've been involved in learning and being educated about the Palestinian narratives, about the Palestinian struggle, pain, suffering, and recognizing the Palestinian suffering.
It doesn't mean that I'm erasing my own people suffering, but I recognize and acknowledge that there is another narrative on the land.
What I realized is we cannot bring justice into the past.
We can recognize it, we can acknowledge it, but there is no way to make a just past.
There is no justification for Aziz losing his brother, for the 10,000s of Palestinians being killed in Gaza.
There are also hundreds of Palestinians being killed in the West Bank since October 7th, for the atrocities happening in Lebanon, in Iran.
We cannot justify it, but we can create a just future.
And we do need to learn our narratives and sometimes to confess to ourselves at least that what we were born and raised upon wasn't the most accurate history.
And this is, I remember from my primary school classroom that there was a big sign on the board, we, the Jewish people, people without land, came to a land with no people.
This is the Zionist narrative I was born and raised upon.
But we share in the first or second map in the book, we open the book with six maps, that in 1948, between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea, there were 1.4 million Palestinians and 600,000 Jews.
