It is most definately something to feel good about. It is even better that nothing bad has happened to my awareness. :D

This isn't the biggest thing in the world, BUT IT IS DEFINATELY A STEP FORWARD IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION!! It was not a squad of the nationals, but it was U-17, but the thing is they are the future and that is all that matters. I commend all that were associated in bringing both the Israellis and the Palestinians together, and the management at Bayern for allowing this to take place.

All in all, it leaves a good sense of optimism towards the future. Any step towards that desevers praise because it always takes little steps like these to eventually cause a big change. Props ! :D
