15. You said "never"

Sunday

What do you think will come about?
I'm not condoning any attack on Palestinians, but in order to have lasting peace, there needs to be understanding and forgiveness.

What is happening now in Gaza and the West Bank is the result of not seeking understanding and forgiveness - no matter which "side" you support. Hamas is not innocent - neither is Netanyahu and Israeli right wing.

I'm not Christian but this quote of Matthew 7: 3-5 says it all:

Matthew 7:3-5
King James Version

3 And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?

4 Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye?

5 Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother."

I'm not ascribing blame to any one side, but just the sentiment in general.
Either one wants peace or eternal war.
Personally, I choose peace and will not support blame nor vengeance on innocents - either Palestinian or Israeli.
This has to end now.
