Ordinary people seek to make peace

Ronnie Edri and Michal Tamir are man-and-wife graphic designers.  Last month, they uploaded posters on Facebook  showing themselves and their daughter with the slogan, “Iranians, we will never bomb your country.  We [heart] you.”

Now, someone in Iran has responded in kind with posters uploaded saying, “We [heart] you Israeli people.  The Iranian people do not like any war with any country.”  One poster carries a photo of the Iranian diplomat who served in Europe in World War II and helped save Jews from Hitler.

Edri says he has also received hundreds of private messages from Iranians who say they were moved by his posters.

Edri says he fully understands that he is just a private citizen, but hopes his appeal can cut through the political rhetoric that threatens war.
