Good Day.
No it is not a good day..Not in Gaza, not in Israel and not in Ipeace..
But the words "Good Day" are used here as a blessing, a desire. It is an attitude.
Forums which are meant to allow people to express their grief, the sorrows, their hopes and positive aspirations have turned into a battleground.
Differences in perspective and opinion exist and totally effect the way we judge ourselves and others. These differances can not be smeared over.
The question is: "Are we looking for a better day?". for mutual repsect, some empathy..more understanding. Are we interested in seeing human beings opposite us, rather than cardboard stereotypes created to dull our humanity?
Wagging tongues and fingers at each other, questioning the other's right to exist..not trying to see the humanity behind the other's flaw..are all ways we are creating our own battlefield here.
I believe complaints to the other side can have a place here. We have read Noa's post and posts of Gazans each finding fault in the "other side". These were honestly expressed from the heart, mixing grief and anger..with the desire for a better day and the feeling of frustration they have being so far from our goal.
So stop the arguing and the battle to win points in the debate. Stop the War on Ipeace!
