Peace in Aleppo, Syria?

The peace talks offer some hope, but words are cheap and the suffering continues. Air strikes hit hospitals, and corrupt politicians look the other way; some pass by on the other side. They don't want to get involved. They talk about peace and security, as will certain people in the last days.

Peace may come to parts of Aleppo, but it is a sad peace. It is the peace of the graveyard where the dead rest and strive no more. In a sense the Assad regime and ISIS/Daesh are bringing people nearer to God. They are murdering the innocent and acting as merchants of death and destruction. In Aleppo the voice of truth has been silenced. We have the silence of the grave.
