Riz is joined by Daniel Barenboim and Stephen Hawking, two geniuses of their respective fields who are calling for a solution on Gaza - from outside the political system.

I had never actually heard him speak. I agree with him and I am Israeli.

My grandfather fought against the Germans in WW2. He fought against them to stop what he knew in his heart to be evil.

What is going on right now in Gaza is just as evil in my mind. If they called for volunteers to go put a physical stop to it, i'd sign up.

I said it in a post elsewhere but i'll say it here as well. Some people (not me) here in Canada have shaved their heads in protest to the war. Creating a pro-nazi movement in North America is not something in Israel's best interests.

@corwin13 I'm sorry but when you lose a civil war things like justice and dignity and freedom are simply no longer available to them. Lack of understanding reality is what is killing Palestinian Arabs as nothing has changed in 60 years for them, only gotten worse.

[JamesErvin100]

Living on the same piece of land has been an issue throughout history and one has to ask oneself where Islamic Spain, Greek Constantinople, native American America, Tenochtitlan and so, so many other cultures have gone, either moved or disappeared. Military solutions do work if they can be called solutions. The Palestinian Arabs better wake up and smell the coffee before the half million settlers in the West Bank become 2 million and 3 million. Shooting rockets out of Gaza shrinks the West Bank.

@ak2dar nein ist er nicht!! Unverschämtheit so ein Kommentar

[ak2dar]

Bareinboim ist doch ein Heuchler!

I thought of Norman Morrisson and what he must have felt - the sense of passion and urgency with which he acted. Ultimately, I didn't have the courage to act as he did.

[warmperson2007]

He speaks like a real conductor. I like that! In an orchestra one has to LISTEN to what the other plays. Same for Israel-Palestine: one has to listen to the narrative of the other.

I work in barenboim -said foundation in Palestine .this is my first time to hear him speaking

[dragonrasp]

Yeah shame on me. But the fucking jews just killed piles of civilians. They had a religious cleric instructing the soldiers that the Palastinians were not human. They went after crops, everything. They are trying to commit genocide on the Palastinian people and if you don't see that you are either retarded or poorly informed about the histroy in the area. I am of English decent and I live in Canada so I should have no bias. Killing innocents intentionally is evil. Period.
