Calling for peace is not the same as calling for genocide. Call for peace. Don't wait for "the other side to go first". Don't justify death, destruction, or subjugation.

Just call for peace.

Say it first, and mean it. Show it. Even though it is hard. Even if it means rejecting bullies.

Don't let bullies trick you into thinking you'll be safe. You will just be used. And you—and every other innocent person—everywhere—will die. If not physically, then spiritually; for our souls cannot take the inhumanity of killing and oppression.

Choose and fight for peace.
