In a heartfelt reflection, Yair Bunzel, an Israeli military veteran and anti-war activist, looks back on his experiences from the 1982 Lebanon War. \"Every war is brutal, and civilians are always paying the price. Every dead, injured and mentally or psychologically hurt person is a damage for generations, not just the person himself,\" Bunzel shares.
Despite the scars of past conflicts, Bunzel remains hopeful for a peaceful resolution between Israelis and Palestinians. \"In the end, you have to shut down the fire,\" he emphasizes. \"Shutting down the fire means, you sit with your enemy and you really search for a solution… I'm absolutely sure that Palestinian nation and the Jewish nation will find a way to bring peace to Jerusalem and actually to the whole region.\"
Bunzel's message is clear: it's time to look forward and work collaboratively towards a harmonious future. \"Don't look back. Look where you're going,\" he urges, inspiring a vision of unity and lasting peace for the region.
