World Peace “Lennon Ivan Style” – Part XXXXXXXXX:

As a continuation from my last blog whereby I believe the root of “World Peace” is centered on peace in the Middle East with the first step being negotiated peace between Israel and the Palestinians, I would like to remain objective and independent in my views such that I would like to address in further detail why the extremist factions of the respective Parties like Hamas (Palestinian); Hezbollah (Palestinian); and Mossad (Israeli) should be part of the negotiations on-line and on-time via teleconferencing, other than for security reasons to avoid a wild UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championship) style street fight. It is important that this issue now be addressed as on May 30, 2014, U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said Israel’s wait-and-see approach to the Fatah - Hamas unity talks was “appropriate”. As a friendly reminder, Mahmoud Abbas, Palestinian Authority President of Fatah, needs to accept such a unity with Hamas as a sign that the hand (Hamas) will react in line with the head (Fatah) and avoid the hand (Hamas) slapping the head (Fatah) in order to be able to negotiate a long-term sustainable solution with Israel. Mr. Benjamin Netanyahu, Prime Minister of Israel, needs to accept such a unity between Fatah - Hamas as the foundation to allowing Fatah (head/ political movement) to represent Hamas (hand/ military movement) at the bargaining table for long-term sustainable peace with Israel. However, this has now become more difficult as Israel buried three Israeli teens it says were kidnapped and killed by the Islamic militant group Hamas consisting of Eyal Yifrah (19); Gilad Shaar (16) and Naftali Fraenkel (16) who initially disappeared on the night of June 12, 2014 as they were hitchhiking home from Jewish seminaries they attended in the West Bank. While not condemning the abduction, Hamas denied responsibility for the teens’ death. To add fuel to the raging fire, tensions mounted in Jerusalem as a local Palestinian teenager, Mohammed Abu Khudair (17), was found dead, on early Wednesday, July 2, 2014, in what some fear may have been a reprisal attack for the killing of the three Jewish Israeli teenagers abducted in the West Bank. Although Israel had previously halted its fire for six hours after Egypt put forward a cease-fire proposal that unravelled, Israel has ignored international appeals for a ceasefire as Israel widens its range of Gaza bombing targets to include civilian institutions with suspected Hamas ties. Hundreds of Palestinians fled in panic into Gaza City on Sunday, July 20, 2014 as Israeli troops focused their firepower on the nearby town of Shaja’ia. The shelling and bombing killed at least 60 people and wounded 300, according to the Gaza Health Ministry. In previous days, Israel warned residents to flee, through calls, text messages and dropping fliers that said “it is the intention of the IDF to carry out aerial strikes against terror sites and operatives” in the area. The fliers told people to head to Gaza City by Wednesday morning and not to return until further notice. Some residents said they had received the warnings but felt that even if they fled, they could face the same dangers in other parts of Gaza. But the IDF said Hamas “ordered them to stay” and “put them in the line of fire.” Overnight, Hamas fired rockets from Shaja’ia toward Israel. The militant group also turned down an invitation by Egypt to talk about a cease-fire initiative that Cairo had proposed. Without getting into further excessive details and without reacting based on wild rage, it is clear to me that Israel is looking to cripple the Hamas organization with its current military campaign aimed at taking out Hamas’s ability to fire rockets at Israel. In my opinion, Hamas has turned down an invitation by Egypt to talk about a cease-fire initiative that Cairo had proposed because we are now at an overall death toll in Gaza of more than 410 since the Israeli military operation Protective Edge began on July 8, 2014 and according to Gaza health officials, at least 3,000 have been wounded. In my opinion, Hamas right now is furious and fuming at the seams as their thousands of rockets fired at Israel have done very little so far in terms of human casualties due to Israel’s sophisticated technology “Missile Defense Dome” system. Conversely, Israel has reciprocated with punishing blows such that Hamas is now dying to find a way to even the score with the only option left in Hamas’s arsenal being a Terrorist strike by hitting Israel from the blind side while piercing their heart. Therefore, in my opinion, Israel with the aid of the International community should once again consider pursuing a cease-fire deal with Hamas before Gaza is a pile of rubble while Israel lives in a bubble. That is, in my opinion, Israel is living in a bubble in the sense that Israel believes that if it wipes out the entire Hamas military arsenal, Israel will have peace. In my opinion, Hamas by its nature will never give Israel any peace of mind even if its entire military arsenal is completely destroyed as Hamas will find a way to poke Israel in the eyes such as blowing up an airport in Tel Aviv in spite regardless of Hamas losing 50 times more in the overall fight. Therefore, once again, in order for there to be long-term sustainable peace, Hamas must be controlled via logic and rationale as Hamas by its nature cannot be controlled by military strikes as the more they bleed, the more vicious they strike back with terrorism it seems as they do not have any other viable means.

In summary, I refer to “World Peace Lennon Ivan Style – XXXXXXXXX” as the belief that Egypt’s ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas is in everyone’s best interest as the more Hamas bleeds, the more vicious they strike back with terrorism it seems as they do not have any other viable means.
