WORLD DESK — A new Arabic edition of Tom Wegner’s book on Middle East peace is drawing attention in Syria. Wegner, Founder and CEO of The Abrahamic Movement Global, announced the development in a post shared on Facebook and on X.

“Unprecedented things are happening in Syria: Following the publication of a special Arabic edition of my book The Abrahamic Revolution in Syria, the publisher in Sweida has released a special address to both Syrians and Israelis.”— Tom Wegner, Founder and CEO, The Abrahamic Movement Global

A Message from Sweida

The address, titled “The Abrahamic Revolution of the Peoples of the Middle East – From the Clash of Identities to a Partnership in Life,” is credited to Raafat Rafe Abu Ras. It follows an intellectual study of Wegner’s book, The Abrahamic Revolution: A Middle Eastern Peace Formula.

According to the text, the author’s vision centers on building a shared human and Abrahamic identity that transcends religious and ethnic divisions. It stresses moving from the logic of separation and conflict toward communication, cooperation and shared life.

“True peace does not mean that we become alike, but that we accept our differences and protect one another’s right to life, dignity, and freedom.”

From Separation to Shared Life

The address says Wegner presents a vision that goes beyond traditional concepts of conflict in the Middle East, calling for a culture of peace rooted in the common human and historical ground of the region’s peoples. Religious and ethnic difference, it argues, should not justify enmity, and the region’s future is built not by walls and psychological boundaries but by dialogue, cooperation and mutual recognition.

Dialogue

Open communication replaces silence and suspicion between communities.

Mutual Recognition

Accepting differences while protecting each other’s life, dignity and freedom.

Cooperation

Shared projects that turn neighbours into partners.

Partnership in Life

A homeland of prosperity rather than a permanent arena of war.

Arabs, Jews, Christians, Druze and All Components

The address underlines that shared life among Arabs, Jews, Christians, Druze and all other components of the region “has not been a political choice; rather, it has been and remains a civilizational and humanitarian necessity.” It concludes that the Middle East deserves to be a homeland of partnership and prosperity, not a permanent arena for wars and hatred.
