As Twitter war rages, #stoptheterror
Instagrams aim to wage peace
CNN’s article
“As
Twitter war rages, #stoptheterror Instagrams aim to wage peace” reported that one Israeli man, Ido
Simyoni, decided to take matters to social media in order to get a cease-fire
between Israel and militants in Gaza. He decided to start a project by asking
people to post their images on photo-sharing service of Instagram application and
tag them #stoptheterror. People who wanted to join this project have to write down
the word “Stop” or “Stop the terror” on their hand and take the photo. More
than 5,000 photos were posted on the Instagram since last Monday.
According to my point of
view, this story is very interesting for me. I think that there are many ways for
us to make peace happen. We just use social media in the right way. It’s a
great thing that everyone can do in order to help other people who suffer from
the violence from the civil war.
