Bottom line; Hatred is not the way... All that hatred does is destroy the person filled with it.

Real peace is hard to accomplish, because it means honest communications and providing for everyone according to their need. This means sacrifice and compromise.

A cease fire is not an opportunity to re-arm and plot the destruction of the enemy. We will see. It does not help that Israel went into Lebanon and killed some more people during the cease fire. Do they really think this will help? I think that they are shooting themselves in the foot, just like the US is, in Iraq. I hope they do not shoot themselves in the heart with all of this hatred.

I see the first steps towards peace with the cease fire, because the agreement is not totally one sided, but much more needs to be done. A cease fire does not erase hatred.

What we need is a  day of forgiveness and atonement for all of the crimes committed, with hopefully everyone participating. We need an end to the hatred and fear.

Cleansing the hearts and coming together as one people can and will lead to peace. Signing a worthless piece of paper with politicians or the UN forcing something on both sides will not work long term. The hatred and fear is still there. That will cause more death and eventually MAD; Mutually Assured Destruction.
