Peace in the New Year

 

December 23

Voices for peace in the Holy Land, a compilation of discussions and music for the holidays. Hear the views of Noam Chomsky, Yonatan Shapira and others.

During the holidays, stories about our common humanity are particularly appealing. Sometimes soldiers don't fight during war. They come out of their trenches for a very brief time to exchange gifts and play soccer. There is sometimes this unmet need to recognize that we are all sisters and brothers. An urge to embrace one another rather than to kill. 

Perhaps our common bonds will save us in the end. And if we destroy our species through global warming or nuclear Armageddon, then at least we tried. 

Work for peace in the New Year.
