ALL WE NEED IS LOVE eventhough rockets hit our home town


I have come accross this in one of my friends' blog and wanted to add on mine as well since i found it really interesting. Well, they are in the middle of war and they live in Haifa. They thought love is more important than anything in the world and whatever happens they wanted to get marry. Breave ones! Congs! I am totally speechless, hopefully they will be happily married forever.

For the ones who don't know about Haifa, I feel like giving some information about marriage there. First of all in the picture the couple is standing right in front of the Baha'i property and you can see the Shrine of the Bab and the first half of our terraces. Nice view as it has always been, therefore, most of the couples who wants to get marry come and take their wedding pictures in Baha'i gardens because of the beautiful view. Like this example... May Bab and Baha'u'llah bless you !

Here is the news from Reuters:

"HAIFA, Israel (Reuters) - Imad Mousa and his fiancee Anita Mishal smiled sweetly as their wedding photos were taken in Haifa on Tuesday -- just moments after the booms of Hizbollah rockets echoed across the northern Israeli city.
"I am a bridegroom under fire," Mousa said. "The noise bothers us, but what is more important than getting married?"
Dressed in their full wedding regalia, the couple posed for pictures overlooking Haifa's crystal bay.
They plan to get married on Friday in Mousa's village of Kfar Yasif in the northern Galilee, which has also come under attack from the Lebanese guerrillas. Mishal comes from Haifa and wanted wedding pictures from her home town.
Hizbollah rocket salvoes have killed 13 Israeli civilians since the crisis erupted a week ago. Israeli air strikes on Lebanon have killed 235 people, the vast majority civilians.
The couple, Arab citizens of Israel, bemoaned the bloodshed.
"War is bad for everyone," said Mousa."
