Peace and Hope in the Middle East...

By Fiorella Bafundo


The Pope said yesterday that he will travel to Israel in May from 8th to 15th to pray for the unity and peace in Middle East and the rest of the world. He will visit the capital city of Amman, and then he is going to go to Jerusalem, Belen, and Nazareth. The president of Israel Shimon Peres said he is “very happy” of receiving the Pope and that he has decided to go there, and assured that his visiting is going to be an event “of which will emanate an air of peace and hope.”

We will see if religion can help to solve this problem of war in Middle East, whereas diplomacy and military confrontation have not done anything for the good of the people.
