Because a global change is possible

In the last four years it is becoming apparent that humanity knows how to work under pressure. These are difficult times in all areas, but they are brewing a global consciousness that is cornering the prevailing indifference typical during buoyant times. We have lost the fear of pulling the blanket. In the darkest moment is when the small lights illuminate more and inspire others to ignite. That is what is happening. You may need this “blackout” for humanity and its consciousness to re-ignite brighter than ever. Because a global change is possible.

Please do not fail to pay attention to this initiative that is going around the world as a result of the tension that exists now between Iran and Israel. And let’s go further beyond. Let’s make it inspire any conflict at any level. Unfortunately there are many cases like this (Israel, host, towards its neighbour, guest, hostage Palestine). But there are too many of us to make ourselves heard. The planet is beating for the first time, not only to the rhythm of bombs.

This is the transcription given by its author in YouTube.

To the Iranian people
To all the fathers, mothers, children, brothers and sisters

For there to be a war between us, first we must be afraid of each other, we must hate.
I’m not afraid of you, I don’t hate you.
I don t even know you. No Iranian ever did me no harm. I never even met an Iranian…Just one in Paris in a museum. Nice dude.

I see sometime here, on the TV, an Iranian. He is talking about war.
I’m sure he does not represent all the people of Iran.
If you see someone on your TV talking about bombing you …be sure he does not represent all of us.

I’m not an official representative of my country. but I know the streets of my town, I talk with my neighbors, my familys, my friends and in the name of all these people …we love you.
We mean you no harm.
On the contrary, we want to meet, have some coffee and talk about sports.

To all those who feel the same, share this message and help it reach the Iranian people

My name is Ronny, I’m 41 years old. I’m a father, a teacher, a Graphic Designer.
I’m an Israeli citizen and I need your help.

Lately, in the news, we’ve been hearing about a war coming while we, the people are sitting, watching like it has nothing to do with us.

On March 15th, I posted a poster on Facebook. The message was simple.
Iranians. We love you. We will never bomb your country

Within 24 hours, thousands of people shared the poster on Facebook, and I started receiving messages from Iran.
The next day, we got featured on TV and newspapers, proving that the message was traveling. Fast.

Please help us prevent this war by spreading this message.

We need your help raising money in order to buy media: billboards, major magazines, TV ads and finally Times Square screens. We want everybody to understand that there will be no war.
