By reaching its summit we have proven that Palestinians and Israelis can cooperate with one another with mutual respect and trust. Despite the deep differences that exist between us, we have shown that we can carry on a sincere and meaningful dialogue.

In expression of these beliefs and desires we hereby name this mountain "The Mountain of Israeli-Palestinian Friendship".
