World Peace “Lennon Ivan Style” – Part XXXXXXXXXIII:

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.  Nearly 1,250 Palestinians and at least 50 Israeli soldiers have been killed in the fighting, which intensified last week and this week when Israel launched a ground operation to destroy tunnels used by Hamas to deploy a regular stream of rockets into Israel and more than 150,000 Palestinians have been displaced. Israeli artillery shells slammed into a U.N. run school sheltering evacuees from the Gaza conflict early Wednesday, July 30, 2014, killing at least 20 people and wounding dozens of others as they slept, according to Palestinian health officials and the U.N. agency in charge of the school. The Israeli military later announced that it would implement a temporary humanitarian cease-fire in the Gaza Strip between 3 p.m. and 7 p.m. Wednesday. About an hour before the cease-fire was due to end, explosions rocked Gaza City, and plumes of black smoke rose into the sky. Later, Israeli artillery shells struck a marketplace in eastern Gaza’s Shijaiyah neighborhood, killing at least 15 and injuring about 160, Palestinian health officials said. Israel claimed that Hamas had been using the temporary cease-fire to rearm. It said the new strikes were unleashed in response to continuing rocket fire into Israel by Hamas, the militant Palestinian Islamist group that rules the Gaza Strip. The U.N. Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA), which operated the school-turned-shelter in the Jabalya refugee camp, said the facility in northern Gaza was shelled by Israeli forces and condemned what it called a serious violation of international law. The Israeli army said it was investigating. Without getting into further excessive details and without reacting based on wild rage, it is clear to me that both Parties are currently operating in a complete state of anger, hatred and rage like wild, savage and hungry animals stuck together in a cage. That being said, how can the international community negotiate an end to this bloody conflict when on the one side there is Hamas who is taking a bloodbath beating of 25 to one, but yet refuses to secede an inch on its demands, while it seems to be holding no power in its negotiating hands. On the other side, Israel has exploded like a volcano with zero tolerance for Hamas fired rockets at Israeli heads, as Hamas desires to avenge the Palestinian dead, while Israel believes that Israel is the one with the right to revenge in self-defense, for the Hamas rockets fired at their Israeli homesteads. In my opinion, both sides seem to believe that they are the victims and thus their actions are above board and can be condoned, yet when I see the innocent children lying in a pool of angelic blood, it doesn’t seem right to me for the Israeli versus Hamas fight to slaughter innocent children who are the future light. In my opinion, I blame Hamas for using the innocent children as human shields of defence but I also blame Israel on humanitarian grounds, whereby fighting the devil with reciprocating evil blows, only creates a spiral effect of venomous sacrilegious Satanist foes. That being said, the underlying root of the problem in my eyes seems to be that when both sides take the fight to the extreme with a philosophy of an eye for an eye, it is just a matter of time until all Parties to this conflict become completely and utterly blind, such that they lose sight that in God’s eyes all Parties are humans at the end of the day, such that there is no God, Allah, Jehovah, Buddha, Messiah or any other supreme power who can bear to stand by and watch the innocent children pay when they are not responsible and in this matter have no choice or say. Therefore, from my point-of-view, enough is enough, such that I would prefer to see all Parties put respective bullets in each others’ heads than to see the innocent children bearing the brunt of this war regardless of who is ultimately responsible at the core. And so my advice to all Parties responsible for this current bloodbath is quite short, genuine and straight when I can unequivocally say that there must be a better way.

In summary, I refer to “World Peace Lennon Ivan Style – XXXXXXXXXIII” as the belief that Egypt’s ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas is a must as the current bloodbath based on an eye for an eye will ultimately make everyone to this bloody conflict blind.
