A female CNN journalist heard about a very
old Jewish man who had been going to the
Western Wall to
pray, twice a day, every day, for a long, long time.
So she went to check it out. She went to the
Western Wall and there he was, walking slowly up to the
holy site.
She watched him pray and after about 45 minutes,
when he turned to leave, using a cane and moving very
slowly, she approached him for an interview.
"Pardon me, sir, I'm Rebecca Smith from
CNN. What's your name?
"Morris Feinberg,"he replied.
"Sir, how long have you been coming to the Western Wall and praying?"
"For about 60 years."
"60 years! That's amazing! What do
you pray for?"
"I pray for peace between the
Christians, Jews and the Muslims."
"I pray for all the wars and all the
hatred to stop."
"I pray for all our children to grow up safely
as responsible adults and to love their fellow
man."
"I pray that politicians tell us the
truth and put the interests of the people ahead of
their own interests."
"How do you feel after doing this for 60 years?"
"Like I'm talking to a fucking wall."
