The lives of the Israelis who have died are just as precious. But when the numbers of this family feud start to reach 850 to 13? 10 of those 13 soldiers? Something is not right. And that something is war.

We all have the right to do and think as we please. But murder and pain are the lines that nobody has the right to cross.

I've been preaching this for days. But with this war reaching casualties into the thousands, how can you still disagree?

Let me tell you.
YOUR GRANDPARENTS ARE WRONG.

We are fighting the wars of dead men. Those who fought each other initially over land or a woman. They used religion to marshal the people into battle with each other. "He thinks your God is a liar!" And the other, "He thinks your God is a thief!" And every 100-300 years, the war becomes about something else.

When will you decide to stop fighting the war of your fathers? Wanting peace means you put the world first. Others before yourself. And that is one of the major tenants of all religions worldwide. Love for others. And peace for all.

I may sound like a hippie. But love is for real. You can argue about Jesus being black, or being real at all. But love is for real.
