Syrian airstrike hit school, How many more have to die?

I was upset when I heard the news that Syrian airstrike hit school. My heart bleeds for those people in a civil war. This is a tragedy...

Syrian airstrike hit School, Killing 20 children

Regime airstrikes on a school complex in northwestern Syria killed at least 35 people, including 20 children, the Syria Civil Defense volunteer rescue group said, in what could be one of the deadliest strikes yet on a school in the nation's five-year war, according to the UN.

The death toll is expected to rise as dozens of others were injured in the Wednesday attacks.

For whom is this war, wherein a child loses his or her parents and parents lose their child? To me the outcome of war is unfortunate and terrible.

The greed of human seems to make someone's suffering to call for a war.

I have read the above statement, I really hurt my heart. Can you imagine how many young people is being sacrificed in a war at this moment?

The targeted area in Idlib is controlled by an alliance of rebel groups opposed to President Bashar al-Assad of Syria. It has frequently been bombed by Mr. Assad’s air force and its Russian ally, which intervened to help him more than a year ago.

Russia and Syria have been increasingly assailed by the United States and other supporters of the Syrian opposition for what they call indiscriminate bombings that kill civilians in the conflict. 

Mr. Assad and his supporters say they are targeting terrorists. 

But!!! Estimates of civilian deaths since the conflict began in March 2011 range from 300,000 to 470,000. Roughly half the country’s population has been displaced.

God is the Creator of heaven and earth and He loves His creation. The will of God is to forgive, love and do the work of salvation. In other words, God did not tell them to fight, kill, and curse each other. 

If people hate and persecute, this action becomes an evidence they have received an evil spirit. If we do not live by the commands (love and forgiveness) given to us by our Lord, we will not be able to go to Heaven. 

Therefore, we should love even our enemies. We should forgive others their faults in order for us to be forgiven.

Do U want Peace? or Do U want War?

We don’t need to argue that which one is better. The people on the globe should be the messenger of world peace and work for cessation of war, world peace with the same mind and the same will enthusiastically.

In comparison with other peace act organization, the reason why HWPL is receiving such a great attention from international society is that HWPL has been achieving outstanding outcomes which is unthinkable and inconceivable with practical activities and executive power in order to end all kinds of conflicts and civil war all over the world.

One person cannot make peace. 

To cease war in the world, to make world peace and to hand down peace to our posterity will be the principle to love peace, people and country. In order to hand down peaceful future, we need to achieve legislation of international law and world alliance of religions.

Let’s make world peace by putting our mind and the will together beyond nation, race and religion. All of us need to be the messenger of peace to achieve peace.

[conflict news articles 2016]‘50 million poverty population’ caused by conflicts

[conflict news articles 2016]

‘50 million poverty population’ which is made by ‘conflicts on earth’ 

Source : https://goo.gl/z2MCSm

Did you know that October 17 is 'International Day for the Eradication of Poverty'? 

I happened to find out the day from the newspaper.

'International Day for the Eradication of Poverty' was established in order to urge the international attention about poverty in 1992 by the UN.

But Poverty population is more than 700 million in the world...

There were some opinions that all kinds of conflicts might cause those problems.

FAO and WFP submitted the reports points out that conflicts is the major cause of poverty to the UN security council.

56 million people... This number is a lot more than the whole population in of Korea.

14 million people is more than half of the population in Yemen. 8.7 million people is 27% of the population in Syria which has lasted conflicts over than 5 years. These two countries are under risk of starvation.

89% of Syria refugee who is residing in Lebanon needs support of food, nutrition and living urgently. 4.8 million people in Republic of South Sudan which is laid under high risk of civil war recently has the same problem. 

Without solving hunger problem, the country which has insecure food security by experiencing conflicts has 40% higher chances on having recurrence of conflicts within 10 years compared to the country which solved problem.

Unfortunately, there is a bigger problem. The country in the poverty is difficult to solve these problem because it is caught in a vicious circle ; ‘conflicts-poverty-conflicts’

The correlation between conflicts and poverty which is mentioned by UN agencies strongly implies that 'resolution of conflicts ASAP' is the homework of international society in order to exterminate poverty.

On last 13th of Oct, António Guterres who is elected officially as Un Secretary General and the former Prime Minister of Portugal has emphasized on overcoming disunity spreading all over the world currently by mentioning Syria civil war.

We need to take action 'at this very moment' to solve two difficult and correlated problems which are poverty and conflicts.

What I want to share with many people is the Declaration of Peace and Cessation of War(DPCW). Drafted by renowned legal experts, the declaration's purpose is to cease all wars on earth.

DPCW is unique, as it aims for a cessation of all wars. By the means of prohibiting weapons and transforming them into daily tools, war and warlike activities cannot be initiated. Therefore, sustainable peace can be achieved by implementing this declaration.

If every country in the world adopts legislature inspired by the DPCW, I have faith that war will no longer break out. 

I look forward to your support~~~

The death of Alan Kurdi, his brother, and mother, depict the bleak predicament facing people in war-torn regions. It also shows how nearby prosperous regions of peace have failed to work out a unified and efficacious response.

Omran and Alan, Syrian little boys symbols of Syrian horror

Recently, video of Omran Daqneesh, another child found among the rubbles got the attention of the world towards the condition of the people living in the war-torn regions.

The haunting, heartbreaking video of Omran, posted by the Aleppo Media Center, has been circulating on social media.

△ https://goo.gl/OES3lj 

He lived with his mother, father, brother and sister in the Syrian city of Aleppo. He and his family were injured when their house was destroyed by an airstrike Wednesday. Miraculously, everyone in his immediate family survived. 

Aleppo, in northern Syria, has been besieged for years during that country's civil war. Thousands of people have been killed there, including 4,500 children, and many lives have been upended. Omran's family is among them.

Injured Syrian girl Ayah cries out for her father

"Baba, Baba" 

It meaning father. The heartbreaking footage shows injured little girl calling for father after Syrian airstrike.

According to the news agency, the pair were later reunited, but two civilians were killed in the bombing raid, with many more families injured. Talbiseh has been hit hard in recent weeks after a seven-day ceasefire last month.

The Syrian civil war is one of the worst proxy wars, as both US and Russia are heavily invested in this complicated scenario. None of the conflicts mean anything to those dead Syrian boy an girl. How much longer will Syria's children suffer?

There are thousands of children like Omran who are being bombed and killed. Everyday this city is hit with every type of weapon, with every type of crime. These crimes must be stopped in Aleppo.

Some 1.5 to 2 million people still remain in Aleppo, once considered Syria's largest city. It is now divided into rebel-held and government-held areas. Those still there face a terrible choice.

Should they stay in a city subjected to relentless bombing and risk their lives and those of their children? Or embark on a perilous journey across the sea, and endanger the lives of their families?

A Sudanese artist based in Doha, Qatar, captured the two stories that symbolize the suffering of millions into one heart-wrenching image.

Omran who was pulled from under the ruins after a Russian air strike in Aleppo and also of Alan who drowned in the Mediterranean.

HWPL takes the lead in world peace movement

△ Declaration of World Peace

For whom is this war, wherein a child loses his or her parents and parents lose their child? A war must end not only for you and me but also people in the world. If people who dream about peace show a bit of interests, peace must be earned. 

There is a non-profit organization called HWPL which practically leads world peace to come true.

What I want to share with many people is the Declaration of Peace and Cessation of War(DPCW). Drafted by renowned legal experts, the declaration's purpose is to cease all wars on earth.

DPCW is unique, as it aims for a cessation of all wars. By the means of prohibiting weapons and transforming them into daily tools, war and warlike activities cannot be initiated. Therefore, sustainable peace can be achieved by implementing this declaration.

If every country in the world adopts legislature inspired by the Declaration of Peace and Cessation of War(DPCW), I have faith that war will no longer break out. 

When heads of state around the world sign the DPCW, surely this will gain the United Nations' attention, causing the implementation, through the UN and its Security Council, of the declaration on an international level to be much more possible.

When DPCW is truly followed by all countries and peoples, our world will soon have peace and the cessation of war. Sign Your Support~

The Declaration, which advocates for peace by specifying provisions on the cessation of war, inspires the global community to develop a legally binding document that can be implemented at an international level.

I hope many people to take part for make this world a better place to live. Youth needs to protect himself. When every single youth come together for peace, the war will be ceased.

Mr. Elhag and Mr. Man Hee Lee emphasised the role of global networks in achieving world peace and cooperation with the help of Aljazeera.

One of HWPL’s peace initiatives highlights spreading a culture of peace and education to citizens and students, which calls for the role of media in news coverage on peace-related issues. 

In this regard, HWPL’s peace activities through Aljazeera’s global network will be introduced in various languages. In addition, the AJMN agreed to produce a special documentary of HWPL.

[WARP Summit 2016 Part II] Plan of action for advocacy to IGOs, governments, and the public

[WARP Summit 2016 Part II]Plan of action for advocacy to IGOs, governments, and the public

International cooperation and peace awareness was in focus when people from all levels of society gathered on the first day of the 2nd Annual Commemoration of the World Alliance of Religions’ Peace (WARP) Summit in Seoul, Republic of Korea.

One thousand renowned leaders and 130 countries around the globe took part in the summit, organized by HWPL, an international NGO registered in the UN DPI. 

HWPL engages in peace-related projects and campaigns globally for the cessation of war. 

On the 17 September, the summit began with the Advocacy Forum for the Declaration of Peace and Cessation of War.

1) Advocacy Forum for the DPCW Marks the Beginning of the WARP Summit 2016 Part I

Two hundred people, including members of the HWPL International Law Peace Committee, ministers, representatives of organizations and civil society, were in attendance. 

Panel discussions ensued with concentration on the roles of different levels of society and plans of action for the advocacy of the DPCW to be developed into an international legal foundation for peace-building.

2) Advocacy Forum for the DPCW Marks the Beginning of the WARP Summit 2016 Part II

Nine panels of the forum, consisting of leaders from civil society, further discussed plans for legislation and policy making for peace-building, based on the DPCW, while reflecting on the environment of each nation.

Part II provided an opportunity to find a vision of legislation processes of the DPCW through the strategy roadmap. In short, trilateral approaches and cooperation from IGOs, Goverments and NGOs are required to develop the DPCW into an enforceable international law, implementation at a national level and raise awareness to garner support from citizens.

Participation of civil society can play a significant role in formation of a social consensus between the public and governments, making it possible for IGOs to reflect demands from the society. 

This example of trilateral communication could be seen clearly by Mr. Mihail Guzun's presentation on "Strategy for the Advocacy of the DPCW in Moldova."

Mr. Guzun, Chairman of the Social Commission and Codru City Council, actively engaged in "the Legislate Peace Campaign", receiving signatures from the public in support of the DPCW. To further promote the peace campaign in Moldova after obtaining 1,800 signatures, he proposed the designation of the HWPL Peace Park in the city of Codru, establishment of the international law conference for high government officials, national peace walk festival and official registration of the HWPL Moldova Branch Office under the Government.

Ms. Paula Boland, Executive Director of United Nations Association addressed, “NGOs are well equipped to educate and advocate for the principles of the DPCW and its adoption by member states through creating alternative venues for states themselves to engage in collective action and for individuals to join with other like-minded individuals in pursuit of their goals."

Dr. Hans Koechler, President of International Progress Organization in Austria, stated, "When the public’s awareness and opinion can persuade and mobilize citizens and leaders on their initiatives, the synergy effect will occur. NGOs cooperate with international community on their international initiatives in their areas of interest. Another aspect relates to peace is a culture of peace. Quite often, culture of peace has been mentioned that how important it is and also understood in the Declaration (DPCW). What is important is to teach and propel spreading a culture of peace and incorporate it into an academic curricular for school children.”

In order to prevent conflicts, make an end to wars in the globe and create peace as a sustainable heritage for generations to come, leaders from the international society who are motivated for and dedicated to peace-building lead the way across nations.
