With Congeresswoman Eddie Bernice Johnson for A World of Women for World Peace panel discussion here at the Fed, I received a couple suprizes…Money

First, all attendees GOT money, which normally flows the oppisite direction!

Second, and more importantly, for the first time the panel included a man… and for good reason.

israel-iranWhen war between Israel and Iran seemed imminent, Israeli graphic designer Ronny Edry shared a poster on Facebook of himself and his daughter with a bold message: “Iranians … we [heart] you.” Other Israelis quickly created their own posters with the same message — and Iranians responded in kind. The simple act of communication inspired surprising Facebook communities like “Israel loves Iran,” “Iran loves Israel” and even “Palestine loves Israel.”

Ronny Edry of Israel accidentally created an online movement for peace in the Middle East when he posted a Facebook image that declared “Iranians, we will never bomb your country.”
