A rare opportunity to create a new Golden Age in the Middle East has arisen after the Gulf War.
We are all in need of it, and any other alternative would be a collective punishment for all peoples in our region. We can begin today by taking the first step across the brige of mutual cooperation and understanding among Midlle East people. The journey ahead will be long, but the way is open. We need brave travelers.
