I was born for peace

I was born for peace was written by Uzi Hitman and is an Israeli peace song released in the context of the peace talks with Egypt that were coming to a close. The song expresses longing for peace, a longing that has been there since the establishment of Israel (see analysis below), and actively promotes it. Due to its nature and how it aligned with Israeli values, this song reached high in the charts.

The song is taught to Elementary School children, and is an integral part of the cultural and national education.
