These are some great ideas on how to end the war in gaza. I wish we could just have peace throughout the world. Life is too short to fight and be at war.

Before the 1st Intifada, Palestinians and Israeli’s worked together, went to each other’s dentists and doctors and made a world of tension relax enough to cultivate and experience relationships. Now, the war spiral continues – these “meds” can also be addictive – and we have a complete generation who have no concept of friendship among these two noble peoples. To say things moved backwards is an understatement. It will take dramatic moves by someone in politics to fix this very broken thing. We watch from America with almost disbelief, sometimes, that this entire episode still rages. It is the cause of so much violence elsewhere, as well. It is a sore on the entire earth. Nor are we somehow blameless in it either and for that I apologize.

There seems to be no light at the end of this protracted tunnel. All one hears are the wrongs from the other side, so often. In my opinion, being the victim – this time – next time, your turn – often insures deafness from those who could help – on either side. It becomes an endless drone which loses significance. One cannot help but feel a courageous people need to stand up to those who are too thick to find answers. Talking amongst ourselves provides clues which we can work on and use. Otherwise, the humanity of this woman’s posts is just lost to those who could experience it and her kids, first hand.

bouhamza;
Hamas challenged Israel not caring what Israel’s reaction gonna be like for the civilians, who run hospitals and schools are Palestinians it’s not Hamas.

Hamas steel the authority from Abu Mazen, they violate the constitution when he kick them out but they insist to remain.

We cannot condemn Hamas. In Israel you tend to think that they are nothing but a group that fires rockets on Sderot (Najd) but in reality they are running hospitals, supplying food and shelter for the poor, they run schools and so on. Moreover they won a fair (by EU standards)democratic election and should have been recognized as it. Israelimom: Look around the world. Every street in europe alone is filled with people enraged by the ongoing slaughter. No one is blaming Hamas except israel and european/american politicians. bouhamzas last blog post..Fiih Eh ya Ra'is???
