Israel has very quietly helping Syrian refugees long before
the rest of the world were paying attention to the conflict's human disaster.
There were/are many projects such as setting medical hospital up north,
opening the borders to treat injured Syrians. Israeli children collecting
jackets and blankets in the winters to clothes Syrian children. They were
concerned that Syrians parents may not use Israeli clothes because the cloths
tags are in Hebrew so they tore out all the tags. They did not give the
clothes/blankest for acknowledgment but to make sure the Syrian children are
warm in the winter. Israel doesn't toot its own horn when it
engages in humanitarian aid. They simply do it out of sense of compassion
and express Jewish values.
Now, a Syrian refugee living in Turkey feels safe
enough to begin sharing. He has many hits from Arabs who cannot speak out
in encouragement to speak for them too
