Lebanon

Why I want to go to this place

compare the attitude there to the attitude in Israel, and try to see the civilian side of the conflict; figure out why Hezbollah insists on firing rockets from civilian homes, putting their own people in the line of Israeli fire.

Why I want to go to this place

the Dalits (untouchables, from the ancient Hindu caste system) are being horribly mistreated and U.N. legislation has been doing, surprisingly, nada, so i’d like to go and help them in person.

What I want to do at this place

I want to go there and help people in person, but since I can’t, for now I’m just trying to spread awareness and raise money. We did a candy sale at our school, and for students (high school or college) who want to help, there’s an organization called STAND: A Student Anti-Genocide Coalition that connects students who want to help internationally.
I think the most important thing we can do is to let people know what’s going on, because the more people know, the more people are going to help.

Worth visiting!

The first time I went to this place

You go there and it’s incredible, I don’t know what other people feel but I felt like, I love New York, but this is the true home of my heart. You visit the Kotel, the western wall, and I swear God listens more closely to all of your prayers. It’s a beautiful, beautiful place, and if you ever get the chance to go, don’t hesitate.
