TheVoiceOfJoyce Great synopsis of the “perfect storm” , that created the fighting between Israelis & Hamas . It can de escalate. What will be the catalyst? Can all people agree to a process of understanding and trust , leading to a durable peace. It can take 3-5 yrs of work to get to a relationship? Who is committed to this work?

AmericaSpeaks TheVoiceOfJoyce I saw a film, #Crescendo, that made a lot of sense. It was the formation of anOrchestra, consisting of equal numbers of Israeli & Palestinian musicians who join together, learn to talk to each other, see each and make beautiful music together. The Palestinians can do the same today. Reframe their dialogue with Israelis & seek a meaningful peace and prosperity for the Palestinian people. Brett Stephens has a point.
