Stop the Israeli-Hamas war in Gaza

Christmas season is upon us. From the time we were children, most of us heard carols, sung songs, sent cards with , “Peace on Earth, good will towards men.”

Yet, we humans continue the violence and killing. This year it is especially terrible because it is taking place near the headquarters of religions that claim peace and where Jesus was born.

Concerning the war on Gaza, experts keep saying that the situation is very complicated and solutions do not come easily. The conflict has been ongoing for years.

Nevertheless, the war can be stopped or at least minimized with a simple decision – ceasefire first, then no military equipment to either side.

Or if that is too easy, no military equipment without conditions.

Peace on Earth, good will towards men (and women and children).
