Unfortunately, we witness the darkest days in history. I wish we had never seen them. I wish these things had not been written. We are making new beginnings for a generation that is imbued with the humane, national, spiritual, ethical, moral, conscientious values, equipped with the skills of the age, capable of understanding the era, and imagining a world beyond the era. Therefore, we congratulate our 173 students. We congratulate the teachers who raised them. We thank the valuable mothers and fathers. We attach great importance to our book ‘The Heart of Humanity is Palestine’ being considered as a note in history. Because human memory is weak and forgets. So, to prevent forgetting, our children turned the painful days that extinguished the hopes of the children of Gaza into a book with their pens and emotions, as a dark stain in history. We also tried to lead this. Along with our valuable colleagues, we present and gift the book ‘The Heart of Humanity is Palestine’ as a well-thought-out historical note to all Istanbul and all of Turkey. We pray to the Almighty, especially on the occasion of Eid al-Adha, for these bad days, this oppression to end soon.’
