The brutal and barbaric attacks on Israel should never have happend and should not be happening. Neither should the brutal bombing of Gaza and its civilians. The continued attacks on Israel by Hamas and the war on Gaza are deeply tragic and now is not the time for cries that inflame. All of us must keep an eye on and work towards peace. That time will come, even if for some, it is now difficult to imagine. I hope a truth and reconciliation commission, as existed in South Afrika at the ending of apartheid, will be a part of the Israel-Palestine future peace process. Both sides are deeply traumatized. Some kind of shared trauma process will be needed for reconciliation. The poem below is written for when the time for peace has arrived again. Keep your heart focused on bringing about peace, de-escalate, reach out. Feel for the other side, or there will be little hope of peace. In that spirit, and in the spirit of peace, here then the poem: Together Aquarelle: Touching TOGETHER Grieving for Israel Grieving for Gaza Weeping for my baby Weeping for your baby Grieving for my mother, sister, wife and daughter Grieving for you father, brother, husband and son Grieving for my city Grieving for your city My tears are your tears Your tears are my tears My blood is your blood Your blood is my blood My peace is your peace Your peace is my peace My freedom is your freedom Your freedom is my freedom Your forgiveness is my solace My forgiveness is your solace Your dignity is my dignity My dignity is your dignity I am not without you You are not without me Together we heal Together we are Together we shine Gabrielle von Bernstorff-Nahat
