About PEACEFIRE
When a War ends provisionally, the agreement is called a ceasefire. But when Peace ends, there is only War. Ultimately, though: When was there ever really Peace? War and Peace are Co-dependent. So at this juncture, what might be best would be a PEACEFIRE. Stand up against the War that never ends and the Peace that never comes. Provocation is simply a media mogul selling fear as clickbait. Peace would make them poorer.
