Sami痴 eloquent and compassionate delivery of his own story from celebrity to peacemaker was a simple and profound reminder of our common humanity. Over the past seven years, he has served as a bridge between his two homes, helping Iraqis and Americans heal. Through the creation of the Muslim Peacemakers Team in 2005, he has opened communication between sister cities Minneapolis and Najaf, and the Letters for Peace project has fostered understanding among school children in both countries. The Water for Peace project enables reconciliation through the donation of water sanitation systems so desperately needed at this time. Our hope and support for his success will be ongoing; and our door will always be open to him and to all those who work for peace. I urge you to review his efforts at www.mpt-iraq.org .
