Heartwarming photo of a Muslim girl and Jewish boy fighting for the same rights along with their fathers.
This picture is obviously fake, Muslims and Jews hates each other. That’s a fact.
This photo was shared and published through Time, CNN, The Huffington Post and Metro. There is this whole “fake news” epidemic going on, but I don’t think these huge media companies would go as far as spreading a fake photo. Especially a fake photo with a very strong message. The photographer’s name who took this photo Nuccio DiNuzzo. The Muslim girl’s name is Meryem Yildirim, she is 7 years old. Her father’s name is Faith. The Jewish boy’s name is Adin Bendat-Appell, he is 9 years old. His father’s name is Jordan Bendat-Apell. You can also visit this article and you will be given the option to watch a VIDEO of one of the fathers being interviewed about the photo.
You can’t just say these two individual people hate each other when all they’re trying to do is fight for the same rights. You should allow two people of a different religion to protest for the same things without questioning the reality of it.
Good day.
I am a Jew. My best friend of 17 years is a first generation American. Her parents are from Iran. They are my second family. They have fed me, clothed me, and even provided me with medical assistance. Her mother (again, FROM IRAN, KNOWS THAT I AM JEWISH) has held me while I cried, picked me up when I’m down, and showed me what it’s like to be a powerful, strong woman time and time again. I would take a fucking bullet for these people. So this whole “Jews and Muslims hate each other” bullshit dies right here. Does that look like hate to you?
Qian Hongyan was just four when she lost both her legs. A speeding trucker left her for dead as she crossed the main road in her village of Zhuangshang in southern China.
For nearly two years Qian was immobile as she didn’t even have enough of her body left to sit up in a wheelchair. Doctors said her only hope of being able to move by herself again would be extensive surgery to allow her to be fitted with prosthetic limbs.Her parents couldn’t afford this treatment.
Qian’s granddad Yuan came up with a simple but effective treatment to get her moving again. He took a basketball the village boys had discarded and cut a hole just big enough for tiny Qian to fit into, padded the inside with stiff floor mats from his car, then propped her up inside. All of a sudden Qian was able to stabilize herself and was able to by move herself by rolling the ball in any direction she wanted. She supported herself using wooden handles.
From that day on Qian would not be stopped by any obstacle. She went back to school, started to play with her friends again, and started to get back the life of any girl her age. She began professional swimming training in 2007 and defied the odds of her double amputation to become one of the first members of the Yunnan Youth Swimming Club.
She won three gold medals in last year’s Yunnan Para Games and took a gold and two silver medals at the National Swimming Championship for the Disabled (Under 18) in 2009 before continuing impressively at this year’s Para Games.
I should have added this in the original post but after attention in the Chinese press, Qian traveled to Beijing to receive free artificial limbs at the China Rehabilitation Research Center, a center that has been providing help to the disabled in China for over 20 years. At 18 years old she is ready for her full adult prosthetics.
This is so important.
Wow…. It did get much better…
She defied the odds, and did it with the help of her family. Now that’s a powerful story.
