Mepeace.org burst onto the scene of Israeli-Palestinian peacemaking very recently. This is a crowded field of many fledgling and worthy groups, each seeking to make change in their own way.

Thanks, Maggi.

It's nice to see an optimistic, intelligent approach for a change.

I agree with what you say Carole but the powers that be will just ignore them. There is no real will for peace among the leaders.

Be that as it may, Jessie, I applaud their efforts and undaunted motivation.

John Lennon said, "If everyone demanded peace instead of another television set, then there'd be peace" - I very much hope we are all ready to demand peace - it's way overdue!
Thank you, Carole, for the positive article - peaceful hugs at ya!

Thank -U 4 sharing this -It is these kinds of things that let us know that as a spieces humanity is waking up and that if this keeps up no matter what-- soon all the people in government and control will be arguing only amongst themselves without the people which is the way it should be- they can no longer control the masses by fear and hate- the mothers of the world have to say to the brat children ENOUGH ALREADY!! and when they do and come togeather like is happening here and do not stop no matter what -then real change and peace will occur- It is the only way that common ground for harmony will be found- when people all discover and accept what DNA science has already proven -that we are all related and we are all human family- and like family we squabble but love each other anyway- we must become this understanding--- over riding the illusion of seperateness that has prevailed- the new Day has Dawned and Now is the time and Arielle -I agree with you and John Lennon-This is Great news and Hope for the world

GET RID OF ALL LEADERS THAT ARE NOT PROMOTING PEACE. THESE ARE THE EVIL MEN THAT LIKE DEATH. WHO NEEDS THEM? PUT THEM (EVIL LEADERS) ALL IN A THREE RING CIRCUS AND LET THEM GO AT EACH OTHER. WE CAN ONLY HOPE THAT NONE OF THEM WIN.

PEACE, GIVE IT A TRY!!!!! IT PROMOTES WELL-BEING.

With the exception of politicians, no one else can be a winner in a war. Most leaders do not care about the people, who are the ultimate losers in a war. Every parent wants their children to live, but leaders demand the young and able to sacrifice. Thanks Maggi (and Carole for forwarding)!

I'm a member, too, Andreas. What's so good about this is that it's regular people taking away the "leaders'" power to keep the conflict going. You can't see things the old black and white way once you have friends on both sides.

talk across the borders - talk to people across the world - ASK - before you judge and wear their shoes for a day - BEFORE - you acuse, condem and worse wage war!!

Peace on Earth = true peace = paradise. WE ARE ALL BUT ONE!
