POST-EUROVISION LETTER FROM NOA:
Dear friends,
Finally it's all behind us, the Eurovision madness. I admit it has been a challenging several months for Mira Awad, Gil Dor and myself, and for our devoted production team, preparing for this huge event, not knowing what the outcome would be, knowing only that we were following our hearts, not anything else.
We made it to the finals and fared reasonably well in the final count-down, but at the end of the day, what mattered most was the message of co-existence and tolerance we were conveying, our two voices in harmony, and the honesty behind it all . We are honoured to have had this opportunity, we are endlessly grateful for the countless messages of support and encouragement we received from so many people everywhere, and to the international media for giving us the platform to extend our reach father than we ever expected. We were also grateful to Sir Paul McCartney for his message support that came just a day before the Final . it was a great gust of wind beneath our wings!
We did not win the contest, but the letter below, from an Iranian man, is and example of what i consider to be our personal victory.
I wanted to share it with you, as it moved me so very deeply. (the sender was kind enough to give me permission to do so)
With all my love,
Noa (Achinoam Nini)
Dear Noa and Mira Awad;
I am an Iranian who cried for your song at Eurovision contest. You deserved to be the winner but it was the shallow people who could not understand the soul of the poem.
We, Iranian, respect Jews and people of Israel but it is the illegitimate Islamic hardliners in the government who prevent of using "another way"; the way of peace, humanity and justice.
You can not imagine how suffering it is for the people of Iran when the world takes us as a cause of this war instead of the Islamic regime.
Black or White, Muslim or Christian, Jewish or Atheist, it does not matter; we all are human beings.
Hope for the peaceful coexistence of all nations.
