Teenagers in Israel Stand up for Peace--The Shministim

 

(These are Ed Asner's words, posted on the Huffington Post web site on December 10, 2008.)

I've been around this world for awhile, and it's pretty hard to leave me speechless. But when I learned about Omer Goldman - well, her story got me.

If you haven't heard the name Omer Goldman yet, have a seat and grab your Kleenex. Her courage, and the courage of the other "Shministim" in Israel is utterly humbling. And amazing. I don't use those words lightly.
