Bloomfield Production sent me an offer to produce a film about my book “Honorable Peace” and suggested that first it would need a cinematic trailer, a brief description of the contents of the book.
When I suggested to use an interview with me of the time the book was published, they said, they wanted something more complex and suggested that I talk to Francis Peters of Creative Films and order such a cinematic trailer from them.
This is what you can see here.
This trailer would then be used to attract the interest of investors to produce a real movie or documentary.
100 Years of Middle East Conflict Cinematic Book Trailer
The book gives a surprisingly simple answer to the decisive question of how the Palestinians will get their own state: What will be more important to them, peace, or revenge? If they choose peace, they will get their own state.
Forty years ago, the author, a Catholic theologian, spent a full year studying Islam with a Sudanese Shaykh in Egypt and in Sudan.
The idea to the book and his writings about the conflict began with 9/11. After another 18 years of carefully considering the needs of both sides the book was ready to be published. It was translated into Arabic by the Egyptian religious studies scholar, Dr. Maged Ezzat.

FRIEDEN ZWISCHEN PALÄSTINA UND ISRAEL IST MÖGLICH
Gottfried Hutter, Psychotherapeut, Theologe, Nahostkenner mit Jahrzehnte langen Kontakten zu wichtigen Persönlichkeiten aus Politik und allen drei Religionen im Nahen Osten macht in seinem Buch „100 Jahre Nahostkonflikt – Ehrenhafter Frieden“ einen neuen, überraschenden, zunächst utopisch scheinenden, aber doch realisierbaren Friedensvorschlag: Die umstrittenen israelischen Siedlungen im Westjordanland als Friedenschance!
Seit 100 Jahren leisten die Religionen im Nahen Osten eher Beiträge zum Krieg als zum Frieden. Jede hat Angst vor der Übermacht der Anderen. Doch die Geschichte lehrt, dass Angst und Misstrauen nicht durch Krieg und Gewalt zu überwinden sind. Welchen Beitrag können Religionen zum Frieden im Nahen Osten ganz konkret und praktisch leisten?
Die zentrale Tugend der drei abrahamischen Religionen ist in gleicher Weise die Barmherzigkeit. Hier steckt ein riesiges, noch unerschlossenes Friedenspotential. Die gemeinsame Basis von Judentum, Christentum und Islam heißt: verstehen statt verurteilen, versöhnen statt vernichten, lieben statt hassen. Empathie ist der Weg zum Frieden.
Das Buch von Gottfried Hutter gibt Antworten zur Frage: Wie kann bleibender Frieden gesichert werden zwischen der muslimischen Welt und Israel?
Während Machtpolitik meist weiteren Kampf hervorruft, baut dieses Buch auf menschlichem Mitgefühl und Verstehen auf.

My name is Gottfried Hutter. And I just completed a book about peace in Israel and Palestine. To me it was clear that all religions are basically one – but different aspects.
Empathy the way to peace. This was exactly what I wanted to tell.
And the title of my book is “100 Years of Middle East Conflict – Honorable Peace.

Transcript: Honorable Peace – Video 3:54 Minutes English
My name is Gottfried Hutter. And I just completed a book about peace in Israel and Palestine. It became clear to me that all religions are one.
I also got the idea that I should find an enlightened teacher. I visited the Grand Sheikh of a Sufi Tariqa.
And he was really an impressive man. He agreed: all religions are one.
And there is an ideal Biblical example: the conflict between Jacob and Esau. Jacob betrayed his elder brother Esau to get the blessing of his father and thus his inheritance.
Esau was furious! He wanted to kill his brother. Jacob had to flee.
After 21 years Jacob had to return to secure his inheritance.
Esau heard of his brother returning. He hired 400 mercenaries to kill him.
Now Jacob needed reflection. The Bible describes it as a fight with God.
At the end of this struggle Jacob received a new name: the one who fought with God and prevailed, “Israel”!
He confronted his brother Esau – and the 400 armed men were waiting in the background.
Jacob prostrated before his brother Esau and he said: please forgive me.
Esau was so moved from this scene! And said, everything is ok, you are my brother. The country is big enough for both of us.
This is the story of the first Israel!
Jacob managed to make peace, peace between two deadly enemy brothers.
Today I could imagine, Netanyahu could do, what Jacob did: He could prostrate, and he could say to the Arab leaders: We have brought much suffering to you. We apologize. Please forgive us.
And after that, I am sure, the Muslim heads of States will say, we know of the connection of Israel to the land because all our prophets are Biblical prophets.
And after you apologized, we can grant you this land. And we will allow your people to settle all over the Biblical homeland.
Now we can have two countries and we can live in a brotherly manner. Peace is possible for both sides!
And all this I wrote in this book. And the title of my book is “100 Years of Middle East Conflict – Honorable Peace. How Can Lasting Peace Be Secured between the Muslim World and Israel?”
