Amazing how many countries - including ours - base their economies on exporting weapons, then once the wars start say “Stop the fighting! Stop the fighting!”

Fun Fact - it’s impossible to lead the world in arms sales and be a nation of peace and diplomacy

I think most of the people signing off and selling the weapons justify it to themselves by saying the weapons will function as a deterrent. Even though history has shown over and over that is not the case.

What is happening in front our eyes is not a civil war. If one insists on the word war, "he must say: The war of the State of Israel against the Arab minority has '' Idan Landau, an Israeli researcher." Arabs who are mentioned are the Palestinians.. The original owners of land

But its not including yours Marianne, yours isn't saying "stop the fighting", yours is passing new arms deals with Israel worth nearly a billion dollars and saying "stop the ceasefire agreements, stop the ceasefire agreements".
