Last year, I wrote the following short piece about my memories of being at Arafat’s funeral.
Today marks ten years from that day.
Too much to say than what I can say right now–about what the last decade has brought for Palestinians and Israelis, and what the current escalation points to.
I’m only able, right now, to offer what I wrote about Arafat’s funeral last year, and continue to hope and work and build towards a better future for everyone who was in the Muqata that day as their leader (and the symbol of their dreams) was buried, and for all Israelis and all Palestinians.
