RADIO SALAAM SHALOM celebrates

first, successful year of Muslims & Jews talking together

Thursday, 21 February 2008

 

     Today there is a near-vacuum of official statesmanship and diplomacy, other than throwing self-will and violence at most international problems.
     The public peace process of citizens  -- http://traubman.igc.org/pubpeace.htm -- has never been more needed on Earth.
    
     This non-government activity was first named in July, 1991, with the signing of the historic FRAMEWORK FOR A PUBLIC PEACE PROCESS of Palestinian and Israeli citizen-leaders. 
      Facilitating was Dr. Harold Saunders, former U.S. Assistant Secretary of State, also facilitator of the Camp David Accords, and author of two foundational books:

~ ~  A Public Peace Process: Sustained Dialogue to Transform Racial and Ethnic Conflicts (2001)

~ ~  Politics Is about Relationship: A Blueprint for the Citizens' Century (2005)

     RADIO SALAAM SHALOM: Muslims and Jews talking together -- http://salaamshalom.org.uk/ -- is one of the great examples of such citizen-driven activity.
     This February, 2008, the 24/7 Internet radio station from Bristol, England is celebrating it's first birthday.
      These creative Muslims and Jews have live a successful year of transmitting globally their cultural and spiritual online programming
     The foundation is built in their own successful relationships, imagination and dedication.
