When there is conflict

Posted on 23/06/2024 by Daniel

the world itself becomes very interesting. It is not that it falls into war, but it is how the different groups fall and the hidden thinking comes to the fore from surprising places. How university professors support Hamas, dedicated to murder, How angry Israelis tie a wounded man to the front of a jeep. How  whole countries take a side instead of fight for peace. How some countries sit on the sidelines happy to see the generality of their economic adversaries fight it out.

How journalists never cover every fact. How apologists spring up and certainly distort and even hide facts. How debaters decide to interpret history and even when in history to start their story. Everywhere there are factions, deceit, enmity, fabrications and a lust for and in violence.

Where are the peacemakers?
