I know that the Gaza conflict is a very sensitive topic with a long and complex past and I don't want to side with the Palestinians or Israelis with this news article, I just want to wake up all people who don't know what's going on there in these days, I just want to appeal to all people to do their bit to help to end this bloodshed, I just want to spread the demand of peace.
Yesterday the UN had to stop their relief operations because a driver of a clearly marked convoi of the UN was killed by an Israelian strike, 3 days ago three clearly marked UN schools were attacked by the Israelian forces, the Red Cross was prevented from providing medical aid in parts of gaza city by Israelian forces for days, both Israel and Hamas broke the agreed cease-fire for relief supplies, yesterday the UN called for a stop of the war in a resolution but both Israel and Hamas continued the strikes, since the beginning of this war more than 780 men, women and children were killed.
Military attacks, starvation and helplessness are ruling the life of the people of Gaza in this moment (links to official sites stated below).
I think this inhumane situation is unacceptable, so please help!

Now Ther Is Quiet From both Sides And I Wish That Will Continue But The Hamas Collecting Weapones And IDF Are Ready To Attack Again.This Can't Continue Like That Some One Stop Hamas From Fireing Rockets At Israel And That Will Stop The Israel Force. This IS So Simple But Somehow No one Thinked About It And That Shame.
u make it sound like israel attackin gaza cause of hamas and the rockets!! do u really believe so??
do u?
think again and think deeply before u say something like this,
i always pray for peace but NOT the peace who makes the victim equal with the ENEMY, and yes if u asked me Israel is the enemy and it should be ur enemy if u r a normal straight human , and i f u wonder why , this is gonna a huge terrible mess reading for the facts.
there will no peace until u and people like u stop playing Blind.

and hamas just traying to protect its people , by wt by guns ??
wts guns beside tanks and planes ??
and more than 1000 days from gaza ....
but thanx to see that u r interesting
According to my simple (and please forgive me for this very humane gesture of common sense) observation, what's happening now Gaza is now different than what's happening around where I live, in Mindanao (Google search it). We've been at it (Christians vs. Muslims) for... ... ... ... Ok try to count this: from 1600's to up until now. Mindanao, the region in the Philippines where I live and where my Muslim brothers thrive, is still being bombarded with insults from the entire society of the Northern Capital regions like Luzon and the Christian region of Visayas. Luckily, since almost half a decade from now, our southern region are at peace, despite how the West still continue to portray it in the global media as a "red zone" (terrorist infested zone, thank you motherfuckers!!) and despite how our northern neighbors still have not evolved from their underdeveloped, egomaniac, bigot, discriminating, so-called minds. Why we were able to attain peace is because in my opinion, my city (Davao) showed the entire region and even those idiots up north that different cultures could coexist (which is common sense, I daresay) and their coexistence could even bring a more beautiful progress. UK, France, Italy and Japan are the few examples of giant-industry nations who had it in them, and in the same respect my society should look up to those examples of progressive cultural diversity.
What really pisses me of is this... We are a Third World Asian country and the we are the last thing the world would ever give a rat's ass about. Some of our oh-so-high-and almighty-First World Nations even considered us a country run by dumb brown monkeys. How come we were able to attain some notion of peace after centuries of political-territorial-religious-ideological civil conflicts? Israel and Palestine have been at it for almost only sixty years and the degree of their strife only become twice as horrendous as our recent experiences because of the massive weapons being thrown at each other (which our technology is incapable of creating and I thank God for it).
It is not too late for peace, hell, it's even way too short of a time to hold such grudges. By the way, don't give me those Biblical interpretations and Medieval archives of why Muslims and Jews should have to cut each others' throats until God get's pissed off beat the crap out of humanity. I've heard all about that shit more than my conscience could ever stomach. It is pitiful as it is most revolting to hear comments here that nourish an atmosphere of animosity, even attacking people who despise the concept of war. It's hard enough when we hear or see humankind stoop to such behaviors that even the wildest animals are incapable of. Now, I realized that I see remarks that even desperately try to convince people that encouraging this war is the best thing for Israel and Palestine... That it is the only option left worthy of them...
I'm addressing this to those who are directly concerned (Jews and Muslims)... Your Bible and Quran spoke of yourself being God's chosen people. You guys are lucky that in most part of your history you are taught that you're someone valuable and dignified. We colonials never had that because for 3 centuries and one decade we were taught that we are monkeys of imperialists. Being great people, being God's people; is this the best you can do? Kill each other? Come on, you can do better than that.
I don't want to sound like a hypocrite but if I had to sound like it just to get the wits of those "oh-so-smart-righteous" people who continue to attack (and I have read some of them for sure) the one's who desire peace; then my conscience demands it. I want peace, as Buddha wants peace, as some people here speak vocally of it, and being verbally assaulted for it. Though I condemn Israeli government for its recklessness, and the Hamas for their hatred; I most especially condemn the very people here who wishes to crush the essential idea of coexistence. Buddha's grace, I do not wish to state names though I am tempted to. I leave the universe to take it's rightful course, leave us to make right decisions, and pray humanity will succeed in the endless test of survival.
