THE WORLD THIS WEEK
THE WORLD THIS WEEK
It is not easy to see Donald Trump as a hero. But he deserves that accolade for masterminding a ceasefire in Gaza and the resulting release of hostages and prisoners on both sides.
Maybe his eccentric behaviour was even a contributing factor – crossing someone as volatile and impetuous as he is, with all the power at the disposal of a President of the United States, could have dangerous consequences. But his achievement must come with a warning. A ceasefire is not a peace settlement. The main issues are still outstanding. The two adversaries, the Netanyahu government and the Hamas terrorist group, would be at each other’s throats again in the blink of an eye if some alleged breach of the ceasefire agreement provided an excuse.
What is common between Jews, Muslims and Christians? Humanity. How do they learn to acknowledge this common humanity? By working together for common ends, growing in friendship as individual and distinct persons.
