Sometimes, if you really want something, you have to create a committee, an organization, to go out and get it.
We want peace, don't we -- so how about a World Peace Committee? Invite every nation in the world, from Japan to Latvia and from Chile to China.
The purpose of the group is to seek peace, and the members would be asked to dwell more on what they could do to bring more peace than on what their opponents in war could do. Yes, they could argue and make their demands. Some. But, the emphasis would be on what they could do -- asking nothing in return -- to help bring peace. Hamas and Israel would both be asked to forward ideas of things they could do -- without getting anything in return -- to bring peace in the Middle East. Same with Ukraine and Russia. Same with every other set of adversaries in the world.
At the beginning of each meeting -- and meetings would be weekly, if not more often -- the opposing sides of each conflict in the world would be asked what they could do -- getting nothing in return -- to bring peace. Then, after that, they could do their negotiating.
Think of it. We've had world summits; what if there was a world summit every week. That should be worth something.
