«What is Happening in Israel is Devastating.. Watching all of these families and especially children being herded, assaulted and murdered in the streets is Heartbreaking. Imagine if this was happening to you?? It’s Un-fathomable. Conflicts can never be resolved with violence. Unfortunately Humanity does not understand this Universal truth. Has Never Understood it. We live in a World Ravaged by Hate»Madonna

The Californian artist shared the words of UNICEF Director Catherine Russell, calling for peace and a future for the youth. «PEACE. FOR ALL CHILDREN.»
«I am deeply concerned about the well-being of children in Israel and the State of Palestine. With hundreds of civilians reportedly dead or injured, we are closely monitoring the situation for reports of serious violations of children’s rights. Today’s events continue the trend of spikes in violence that have plagued Israel and the State of Palestine, leaving 199 children dead and over 2,800 injured in the past three years. UNICEF calls for an immediate cessation of hostilities and for all parties to protect children from harm and provide them with the special protection they are entitled to under international humanitarian law. Above all, the children of Israel and the State of Palestine need a lasting political solution to the crisis so they can grow up in peace and free from the shadow of violence, said UNICEF Executive Director Catherine Russell regarding the violence in Israel and the State of Palestine» U2Katy Perry sharing Cathering Russel's world

The Irish rock band also wanted to echo the heart-wrenching situation in the Middle East.
«In the light of what has happened in Israel and Gaza, a song about non-violence seems somewhat ridiculous, even laughable, but our prayers have always been for peace and for non-violence… But our hearts and our anger, you know where that’s pointed. So sing with us… and with those beautiful children at that music festival…»U2
