The Jewish-Arab Peace Song (w/ English subtitles)
Uploaded by: shalom2salam
Video Description:
A song for Break the Gaza Siege delegation (www.freegaza.org) which included Jews, Christians & Muslims, including several Israelis.
In this video, Jewish-Israeli and Palestinian singers and musicians joined together to perform the Hebrew-Arabic song "Hevenu Shalom Aleinu" (We Brought Peace Upon Us) - "Ma Ana Ajmal Min Salam" (There is Nothing More Beautiful Than Peace).
Sung in both Hebrew and Arabic, this Middle-Eastern-Jewish-style inspiring, jazzy song challenges us to overcome decades of hatred and violence, and replace them with human rights, multiculturalism, and appreciation of the common humanity of both people.
To paraphrase JFK, ask not what they can do to end violence and occupation, but what you can do for Israeli-Palestinian peace. Here are some suggestions: 1) Simply send this link to your mailing lists to inspire people to act as peacemakers; 2) donate whatever you can to humanitarian initiatives, such as "Break the Gaza Siege" which has been a huge success but terribly needs donations; and 3) plan a trip to Israel and the Palestinian territories to see for yourself. There are several organizations which can help you with such a trip. In any event, don't remain silent. Silence is complicity.
The song, which later became the anthem of Peace Child Israel, was performed by the following singers (in order of appearance):
Jewish-Israeli -
Leah Shabat
Shlomo Gronich
Zehavah Ben
Eli Luzon
Palestinian -
Sahmir Shukri
Nivine Jaabri
Elias Julianos
Lubna Salame
