Perhaps we need some music brought in again, to bring peace.

Back during the Israel/Lebanon crisis, there were many Concerts For Peace organised by the young people of Israel, with artists from all over the world taking part. One of those who helped to organise just such a concert was Aliza Hava, a young musician from New York who is doing all she can to promote peace in The Middle East. I'll put links to both her sites, so those who cannot link to Myspace, can also hear her music. There is a wonderful song on there called 'Rise' some of the words from which are below:

Also, from Aliza's myspace blog:

The Jerusalem Peacemakers

Aliza's myspace

"...We will learn to sing, not to fight, unless it's for our freedom and rights. We will hold each others hands, try hard to understand. Liberty is our demand. We are one people, one land. One people. One soul." (taken from 'Rise' by Aliza Hava)

The musicians are the ones who will eventually bring peace, for they have no barriers, no political axe to grind, just a strong desire for peace and harmony amongst all people.
