00:03When you lose your child, everything is difficult.
00:09It changes your whole perspective on life and what the world is.
00:15I think humanity is the key for any solution.
00:21The anger, the sadness, I think they will never go away until we sit and talk.
00:26The blaming game will not help us. It will just shut people down.
00:32There will be peace in the Middle East. It's just a question of when.
00:37It will be a painful solution, but it's less painful than the war.
00:42And there is no magic fix. You have to start taking apart those knots one by one,
00:47and there isn't ever going to be a perfect solution.
00:50We all want to see our children and our grandchildren grow up in security.
00:56It is true that our fear collapses the bridge, but our humanity and our solidarity,
01:05and within that, our shared grief, can perhaps be a bridge between us.
01:11The End
