By looking in Thesaurus we know that antonym of peace is ‘War’ but reaching to that stage involves many levels of human life which brings Peace or its antithesis:
- Disturbances in individual life through discontent, greed and other negative traits causes;
- Family quarrels through over-expectations;
- Unfair business practices in communities and collective life;
- Hegemony and manipulation in inter-country relationship;
In nutshell, Peace become casualty through denial of just rights and opportunities
Remedy?
(1) The Beneficent (2) Hath made known the Quran. (3) He hath created man. (4) He hath taught him utterance. (5) The sun and the moon are made punctual. (6) The stars and the trees adore. (7) And the sky He hath uplifted; and
He hath set the measure, (8) That ye exceed not the measure, (9) But observe the measure strictly, nor fall short thereof. (10) And the earth hath He appointed for (His) creatures, (11) Wherein are fruit and sheathed palm trees (12) Husked grain and scented herb. (13) Which is it, of the favors of your Lord, that ye deny? ----
Al-Quran, Chapter 55. Surat Ar-Rahman (translation by Pickthal)
Peace and prosperity are inter-dependent;
Everyone cherish peace but wants an edge over others in terms of prosperity and even rich become poor in comparision with richer and richest;
Bad business practices helps in keeping prosperity within a small circle and also cause environmental degradation.
Remedy? Business with a cause through sustainoprenership, links to excellent food for thought

Warm regards, Eva
I´m so worried about what´s happening in this our global house. I see it with no hope, always where so conscious about the egoism of dont-want-to-see
Th situation was more complex then just a decition of a ing, and while the "imperialism" and "colonialism" was still powerfull in the begining of the 19th century there were need the Jews dream to create their own autonoms state that drive them to seek support from all who was involved as the Kings (and arab kings) of that time.
Today Israel is wake up for the outcome of its manifestation, and the Palestinians people are obligation of the state of Israel, again I wish it was a simple process but we need internal change in Israel and In Palestine in order to create windows for cooperation and building a more fare and stable middle east.
You said it better that I can. I read your reply 3 times, you are very well versed and I agree. My words are not that good and sometimes I say one thing while I really meant something else. Yes, I agree and we are friends.
To me, it is so much easier to get along than not get along. We all have families we love, friends......... I depsise hate. I have even spoke against the u.s.
But it seems here, when I stand up for what I believe is truth, I get slammed. probably because I am stepping on some powerful toes. But that is ok, I am too old to be afraid, too old to run, so I have to fight with words of kindness and understanding.
Please keep in contact. I have just got home from 48n hours of work and trying to contact all. I am off the next 2 days and will have plenty of time to talk. Oh, what is your time if our of the u.s.? I work nights, 12 hour shifts.
That may make communications easier, faster, maybe online.
OK?
Thank you for you kind reply, and I look forward to understanding you and your view more. Now, do not forget, I am 55 and sometimes my mouth goes too fast,much to my regret. ask anyone on this site. I mean not harm. I love to talk. Actually, I love cooking, and want to learn new recipes.
Have a wonderful day Sadiq
