The Israeli-Palestinian conflict has been raging for many years now and the number of victims is multiplying. Especially over there, yet also here in Canada and more specifically in Montréal where young Arabs and Jews, their eyes full of anxiety, their minds confused over the controversy, are in daily contact. However, three Arabs and three Jews studying at McGill University decided to take action in an attempt to build a bridge between the two communities. As a response to the wave of tension, they decided to establish the Yalla newspaper in which young Arabs and Jews can express, in a constructive manner, their frustrations in regard to a conflict that is drawing them farther apart and making them tear each other to pieces. Never before has a project of this kind succeeded in uniting the young people of these two communities. The 200 pages of the first edition of Yalla, featuring short stories, poems, essays and photographs, is meant to be a reflection of the daily lives of these youngsters, their personal experience, and is an invitation to readers to better understand one another even though they may not always share the same beliefs. Bringing with it a breath of fresh air, Yalla is paving the way for a better understanding between the two nations.
