An Israeli-Canadian peace advocate, feared to have been taken hostage in Gaza, has been confirmed killed. Vivian Silver, 74, lived close to Israel's border with Gaza in kibbutz Be'eri - which was attacked by Hamas during the 7 October attacks. Remains had been found earlier at her house, but they were only formally identified as hers five weeks later. Canadian Foreign Minister Melanie Joly described Ms Silver as a "lifelong advocate for peace".

Well, she got her peace—violently.

I wonder how peaceful she was while they tortured her, then burnt her alive.

It would be interesting if she wished she hasn’t been so stupid about the Palis.

If only one side advocates for peace, they will be killed by the side that does not.

Fifty years in the area and not a single lesson learned until it was too late.

"Fifty years in the area and not a single

Liberal ideology overrides everything; logical thinking,
sound judgement and common sense. Liberals can't be
trusted to make correct decisions.

Following the ME conflicts for years, I’m still surprised by the number of “peaceniks” who are killed working for the rights of those who only want to kill. It seems to be less stupid students and NGO’s nowadays.

There is a lot of these kind of people. I wish they would go to the nest of these hamsasses and show them their love! Quit trying to tell Westerners to accept them as a friend.

Proverbs 27:12
“A prudent man foresees evil and hides himself; The simple pass on and are punished.”

She walked into the wrath of terrorism. It never ends positive. And sending a woman into a sharia run country is a write off. Islam doesn’t speak to women concerning their affairs. This is one of the major reasons why there hasn’t been any major improvements in the middle east for years as the US continued to send women to talk with them and it fails miserable. One of the first Made Albright. She got nothing accomplished. Neither did Hil Clinton. So sending another female into an area that doesn’t want them and challenging them with it, just exacerbates the problems. Canada hasn’t learned a thing from failed previous efforts this way. And this one got someone killed.

The absolute brilliance of Hamas has really shown through every aspect of their murder spree.
the world will certainly not miss them. Hopefully Israel doesnt miss them either.
