"Security" Calls for Humanity and Peace

"Together for Humanity," a call from the magazine "Security" in its issue released this morning. The editorial states: "Recently, there was an event that brought athletes together under the slogan 'We Run for Humanity.' This slogan was launched by the Internal Security Forces along the roads and in open squares. It is a slogan that runners embraced in their hearts, for a nation striving for a culture of life. We run for humanity... We work for humanity are two titles summarizing the journey of an institution dedicated to being close to the conditions of citizens and residents. Despite the difficult circumstances facing the nation, it has remained committed to its message and principles. Its message focuses on maintaining human dignity and applying justice, and its principles are based on achieving equality, and working with honesty, integrity, and responsibility. Yes, when we work for humanity, we seek to enhance the values and principles that unite us all as humans. And when we run together for humanity, we can be more understanding and persistent in helping others. We work and run together for the sake of peace and tranquility."

The editor-in-chief of the magazine, Brigadier General Charbel Fram, wrote about peace and humanity, saying: "A child asks his father: When will the sound of thunder end? A girl asks her mother: Why doesn’t my brother wake up from the game of blood? The coffins ask their bearers: Are you not tired of the funerals on the roads? These questions recur in every time and place. Wars indulge in images of destruction and scenes of dismemberment. Wars don different masks each time. And the masks change with the changing goals and motives. Sometimes, they are religious and doctrinal conflicts, at other times they are justified by demographic changes, and at other times they are historical disputes. In every instance, the result is the same. In every instance, the image is the same. Destruction, devastation, human losses, economic, social, and psychological impacts, environmental effects, and a halt to progress and prosperity. In contrast to wars, peace comes as a sought-after moral goal. How could it not be? The culture of peace is based on dialogue, brotherhood, rejection of conflicts and injustice, and the preservation of human dignity and life. So when we aspire to peace, we aspire to humanity."
