Christian and Muslim Unity in Gaza

The occupation doesn't bomb Christians inside Gaza.

I'm Tony Asaad Al-Masri, a Christian living in Gaza

here.

I'm Anal Nasser Al-Masri. I'm Christian, and I'm from

Gaza.

Umm Asaad, were you and Abu Asaad alone together throughout this war?

Together, yes, but when we went out to the tents,

we were displaced to the tents.

Yes.

No, there were people with us nearby.

Who were those people? Muslims? You were with Muslims?

Yes, with Muslims. We had a good relationship, and they were

very good neighbors, decent people. Whatever food they ate, we ate

the same thing.

I was displaced like the people who were displaced from here. I lived

in a tent, down south in Rafah,

Khan Younis, and Jabalia.

From the start, Abu Asaad and I married for love.

I married Abu Asaad, and we've been together for 55

years.

Umm Asaad, after all this hardship and suffering, I'll ask you an embarrassing question. How would

you rate your love for Abu Asaad out of ten?

Out of ten? No, ten out of ten.

Abu Asaad, I'll ask you the question I asked Umm Asaad in the kitchen. How would you rate

How would you rate your love for Umm Asaad out of ten, after all this suffering?

She never left me. I fell, got sick, had strokes and everything, she never left me.

I love her even more because when I had strokes, she never left me.

What would you rate it out of ten?

One hundred percent.

One hundred percent.

Okay, Abu Asaad, many people ask whether you are shelled like us Muslims are.

We were shelled just like our brothers and sisters they didn't distinguish

in Gaza. Between Muslims and Christians.

So Muslims and Christians share the same injustice and the same pain that

has befallen us. The beautiful thing about Abu Asaad and Umm Asaad is that they've been married for 55

years.

They still love each other and still worry about each other as if they got married just

two days ago. Like the clip and tell me, do you think you'll find

this kind of love

in your life?
