Yair Bunzel, an Israeli military veteran and passionate anti-war activist, opens up about his experiences in the 1982 Lebanon War. Reflecting on the harsh realities of conflict, Bunzel emphasizes, \"Every war is brutal, and civilians are always paying the price. Every dead, injured and mentally or psychologically hurt person is a damage for generations, not just the person himself.\"
Despite the scars of his past, Bunzel remains hopeful for a peaceful resolution to the enduring conflict between Israelis and Palestinians. \"In the end, you have to shut down the fire,\" he shares. \"Shutting down the fire means, you sit with your enemy and you really search for a solution… I'm absolutely sure that Palestinian nation and the Jewish nation will find a way to bring peace to Jerusalem and actually to the whole region.\"
His message is clear: Don't look back. Look where you're going. Bunzel believes that with genuine dialogue and mutual understanding, lasting peace is attainable for Jerusalem and the entire region.
