Barry Gerber,

I am a Christian....I too would love to see peace among all who have or do not have a faith. We make it difficult when certain humans want to dominate using "faith" which is precious to those of us who hold a faith. We should respect the honesty and freedom of those who choose "no religion."

We are misusing our faith when we allow it to justify killing our fellow humans which actually goes against the religions or faiths with which I am familiar.

No human being can look upon the starving and devastation in Palestine and be at peace. These are innocent human beings.

We do not fully understand what happened on October 7 nor why it happened. We do not understand why the protective shield over that specific area was not working at the very occasion of the attack. We do not fully understand Netanyahu's relationship

with Hamas.

We do know that Netanyahu would be tried for his criminal accusations if he were not holding his current leadership role in Israel. We do know that Netanyahu wants to take over Gaza.

There is good and evil battling, as has always been true. We must not turn our hearts and eyes and will away from this earth which is OUR home. We are responsible to do what we can to build peace...to serve those in need. We must assist in healing where we are able. To NOT put our heads in the sand and make light of the hellish existence of our fellow members of humanity is required.

Violence on our college campuses...or anywhere.... only helps our enemies.

Thank you President Joe Biden...thank you Jill Biden...thanks to those serving in our Congress who choose peace...who choose making our country great...who choose "Building Back Better".

Thank to those working tirelessly throughout the world for peace and reconciliation. It is an endless challenge. I am so thankful for those we know and see and for those who are unseen but have chosen to give their lives and talents for the preservation of building relationships throughout our entire world. We truly are dependent on one another.

and...GOD SAVE UKRAINE!!!!
