negotiate peaceful relationship? isn't 60 years not enough?
There is no time limit on seeking peace, since conflicts continually arise.
I expect it to be an ongoing process until we replace ourselves with peacebots.
how can you negotiate with people who's hate comes from a believe system?
Beliefs systems are flexible, & change with culture. Continually attack & threaten a people, & the culture will hate.
Recognize this cycle, & seek opportunity for change. To be resigned to intransigence of one's enemies leaves you 2 choices:
1) Destroy them all.
2) Continual war.
#1 is impossible, so if attempted then it leads to #2.
a perfect example is Gaza but yet rockets are still flying, so how much longer can I tell my kids who go to sleep and wake up with a siren of an incoming rocket to live with it until the other side might sometime in the future decide to make peace? what if they don't?
Ask them to become the peacemakers, if the current leaders are unable.
Iran does not need to suffer for action of nazis but what is it Irans business with what is happening between Israel and arabs who call them self's Palestinians? Persians do not border with Israel, they are neither Jews nor Arabs so what give them the right to threaten Jews?
Israel, US, Iraq & Saudi Arabia all either threaten &/or attack Iran. That Jews & Xians of western powers together frame these
conflicts in a religious context would explain why Iran would also focus upon religious groups. Muslims have clearly been treated
by western powers as a mere dirty inconvenience over the last century. To see this from Iran's perspective would be illuminating.
I am sick and tired to constantly keep hearing for the last 30 years of my life that someone somewhere wants to kill me because I was born a Jew, I want to live a normal and a peaceful life, to have kids and grand kids but yet someone believes I don't have the right to live and I should listen to you about being peaceful about it? am I any worse then you that you have the right to have a peaceful life and I don't?
Your concerns are real & difficult, so I don't dismiss them. But neither do I dismiss the rights to peace
of your foes. We each have the opportunity to let our humanity triumph over anger & revenge.
You threaten me, I will beet you down until you stop threatening me and I will guarantee safety and freedom for my kids and grand kids.
Would you grant that right to destroy those who threaten you to the Palestinians or Iranians? America has
already directly attacked Iran by coup & by proxy (Iran). We now threaten them directly & by proxy (Israel).
Some fool takes the world stage and declares to a world that Jews are satans and have no right to live and rather then following common sense and shutting him up the world asks us to be peaceful or worst case calls us nazis?
It would be a mistake to think that one's foe is a fool. If anything, I find Iran's conduct of late to be smarter than Israel's,
but neither should be underestimated. As for those who call each other such vile names, I cannot speak for them.
who do you all think you are?
Again, I cannot speak for others, but I am a taxpayer in a country which spends money & life to wage continual & fruitless
war on the other side of the world. I'm tired of paying to fuel war with goals of political & religious hegemony. It ain't right.
So as a minor player in this travesty, I have a right, nay the
obligation to comment & try to effect change.
