Day and night, we are reminded of the wisdom of our founding principles.

After permitting taking up arms as a means of repelling aggression, we are reminded: “But do not transgress the limits.”

After allowing those being fought to fight back, we are told: “If they incline to peace, likewise incline to peace.”

Warfare is not the ideal; it’s intended to be an exception, a deviation from the norm.

Peace is the ideal we are supposed to strive towards. A peace in which individuals and society flourishes, free of fear, living safe and healthy lives.

This we seek for our own children. Why not then for all the world? Petition for peace as much as you are able to. Salam!
