Peace activist Vivian Silver killed in Hamas massacre on 7 October
The Israeli-Canadian peace activist Vivian Silver was killed in the attack on Israel by the Palestinian terrorist organisation Hamas on 7 October.
Peace activist Vivian Silver is dead.
Whoever murders the allies of the Palestinian civil society in Gaza is not the friend of the Palestinian people!
The 74-year-old's body has been found, the Foreign Ministry in Jerusalem announced. Silver was at times thought to be among the hostages taken to the Gaza Strip. She last lived in Kibbutz Beeri. The German ambassador to Israel, Mr Seibert, called the news of Silver's death "devastating".
Silver campaigned for peace with the Palestinians and was honoured with numerous awards for her work. She launched aid programmes for residents of the Gaza Strip and helped them to receive medical treatment in Israel. In 2014, she was involved in the founding of the peace movement "Women Wage Peace", which now has more than 45,000 members.
Her friends, family, and supporters all agree that Israel's current attack on Gaza is not what Silver would want.
Hatred is only the road to destruction.
Always remember not to confuse cause and effect..... whoever sows wind will reap storm.
Hamas is the enemy of Palestinian civil society in Gaza and of the Palestinian people.
Hamas has challenged Israel, what did you think would happen afterwards?
I don't really like what's happening but it's all caused in the name of what Hamas did.
But I am not playing a role here, time will judge what is happening, but what happened on 7th October has no room for interpretation, it is a crime against humanity in the name of Hamas. An atrocity equal to any war crime in the history of mankind.
Best of all, it has been very well documented by the hate-filled ideologically entrenched crimes of hamas and their helpers in their self-absorption. Welcome to the prosecution cell if you're lucky.

There is another way!
At Brown, a Rare Agreement Between Administrators and Protesters!
Protest is legitimate and what the Israeli government is doing in Gaza is to be condemned. But in a way that is worthy of people with an intellectual background at eye level with arguments. Not with rioting like in some universities, which is rather shameful for all involved!
Instead of seeking democratic dialogue and putting forward arguments that cannot be overlooked or denied in order to substantiate reasonable demands.
Senseless rioting and escalation by students, police and those responsible at the respective universities.
Sad, we say, and you wonder why the United States of America is so irreconcilably divided!
If the intellectuals or the future intellectuals can't deal with each other normally when it comes to different points of view! Or maybe they are even the same points of view, but why pick up the other when you want escalation?
Rioting for the sake of rioting, as an end in itself in the culture of agitation.
Escalation must be sought and wanted on both sides and so it is with de-escalation!

Student protesters, administrators at Brown University reach deal to clear encampment.
Fight Trump instead of wasting your energy on riot that are not really democratic. A tip from us because what is important about democracy is equality and exchange of agencies to achieve the best possible results for all.
