The courage to imagine the other
By Lucky Gold and Christiane Amanpour, CNN
The showdown between Russia and Ukraine demonstrates how hard it is understand the story of “the other.”
The struggle over narratives dates back at least to the time of the Passover – which began on Monday – when Pharoah kept the people of Moses in bondage.
Now imagine a world where imagining the other could mean deliverance for warring sides such as Israelis and Palestinians.
In what may be a first, Mohammed Dajani, a Palestinian professor at al-Quds University in east Jerusalem, recently took 27 of his students to Auschwitz, the notorious concentration camp in Poland.
The idea was to promote greater understanding between peoples.
And yet Professor Dajani was branded by many of his own people as a traitor.
He proudly calls himself a Palestinian nationalist, but he's also a fan of renowned Israeli author Amos Oz – who appeared on this program four years ago to talk precisely about understanding the other.
He came with a Palestinian lawyer whose son had been killed, and who had commissioned an Arabic translation of Oz's work.
“To know the other side is something important – whether we want to fight him or whether we want to make peace with him,” Elias Khoury told Amanpour. “Knowledge is a light, for good and for bad.”
Oz himself spoke of the importance of translating and understanding the other.
“I am a great believer in literary translations between enemies as a healer, as a method of removing stereotypes and replacing the hated by more complex – not necessarily by love … but it will improve the ability to imagine the other. And I believe imagining the other is a moral quality.”
In an email to CNN, Professor Dajani explained his trip to Auschwitz.
“The goal of this trip was to study to what extent would empathy for the suffering of the other impacts reconciliation and peace,” Professor Dajani said. “How would Palestinian students visiting the Nazi concentration death camps feel about the suffering of the other as human beings?”
“The present conflict is influencing to a great extent the way Palestinians view the Holocaust. It was important to for those who lived in a culture of denial to experience first-hand the realities of the terror and atrocities committed during the holocaust in order to break this taboo.”
“I felt sad for the negative reaction of a vocal minority who still find it hard to face the truth and to confront their demons. This was an educational trip and I do regret that it has been so politicized.”

Now that Hamas has realized it cannot continue its position outside the mainstream Palestinian understanding that Israel is a necessary component of the world economy (and indeed Palestinian economy, as many Palestinians work in Israel), and Abbass even went as far as even stating the Holocaust was a dreadful thing, a new era could be happening, and I propose a workable solution: Jerusalem should become (what it essentially is) an independent Holy State, like the Vatican – the Holy See. The capital of Israel should be Tel Aviv, the capital of Palestine should be Ramallah, and Gaza and the West Bank be two parts of the same State of Palestine, like Alaska and the lower 48, or Kalinengrad and the rest of Russia. Citizens of both States should have equal rights to live where they wish; local taxes pay for local schools, roads, etc., and governments elected by the will of the local residents. If Arabs want to live in Israel, fine – a lot already do. If Jews want to live in Gaza, fine – many did.
Bythe way, why do people hate the Jews? It was Britain which drew the borders of Israel, and even if one says the "Arab Brothers" hate Jews because of the land grab, why do (non-Arab) Iranians hate the Jews?
Thanks Howard. Peace is necessary for everyone to experience a quality life, which is everyone's birth right.
A large percentage of of what you claim happens to be supprisingly appropriate and that makes me wonder the reason why I hadn't looked at this with this light before. This particular article truly did turn the light on for me as far as this specific topic goes. But at this time there is actually one particular issue I am not too cozy with and whilst I attempt to reconcile that with the central idea of the position, permit me see just what the rest of your subscribers have to point out.Very well done.

Christiane Amanpour,
May I point out that "...Auschwitz, the NOTORIOUS concentration camp in Poland." was NOT IN POLAND but in GERMAN OCCUPIED POLAND. Thank you Joy Zamoyski Koch for picking up on this and posting it under Polish Media Issues.
Ms Amanpour,
– Please add to your knowledge base, and your own and CNN's styleguide, that any reference to "Auschwitz", the concentration/death camp that was conceived, designed, built, managed and totally controlled by WW2 Germany, should always be referred to as a German concentration/death camp built in Occupied Poland during WW2.
– Any reference to the present day camp should describe it as the Auschwitz-Birkenau Museum built by Germany during WW2.
– Also, the term "Nazi" should NOT be used as a pseudonym for "Germany" or "German", as the Nazis were merely a political party, not a nation that brutally invaded and terrorized Poland.
– The description in this article should be written as: the notorious concentration camp in Occupied Poland, built and controlled by Germany during WW2.
– PLEASE make this correction to the blog asap, for reasons of historical accuracy, and for the correct apportionment of blame.
Thank you.
