"The Palestinian and Israeli peoples aspire to peace. Both have the right to live in their own state, in a land that belongs to them, in order to develop their country and give their children a future. This conflict has been going on for decades. The feelings of desperation, humiliation and revolt have been engraved on many hearts and minds. Yet everyone is fully aware that this situation cannot continue. Political courage is what is needed because, while poverty fuels despair, injustice and humiliation fuel violence. We are at a critical juncture, which may dictate that the situation is moved forward. People must now prepare themselves for compromise and must reach a negotiated solution – for the good of the countries and their populations. When there is humanity, there is the possibility of building a relationship, a dialogue that opens the door to compromises while respecting mutual interests. ‘In giving rights to others which belong to them, we give rights to ourselves’. Those words by John Fitzgerald Kennedy resonate more deeply today than ever before in that part of the world."@en1
