John Kerry's Fight For Prolonged Peace In Gaza

This article is referencing to John Kerry, the Secretary of State's, current fight to have a temporary cease-fire that will hopefully open the door to the further prolonging of cease-fire down the road for Israeli and Palestine. With the currently rising toll of 1,210 Palestinian deaths the U.S was urged to step in. Although the we have our own problems to deal with, aiding countries that clearly are doing nothing to help solve their own issues is important. Dealing with this problem can also help us in the future with imports and such. So far, Kerry has only been able to acquire an unsteady 24-hour cease-fire period which is at least better than nothing. Also, I encourage you to watch the video that is linked in the article in order to grasp a more clear understanding.

Even Gaza Truce Is Hard to Win, Kerry Is Finding

My questions for you are:
What is your stand on the U.S current involvement with the issues in Gaza and Israel?
Do you think we are doing to much or little?
What other benefits can our country obtain from peace between these two ethnicities?
Do you think John Kerry is trying to salvage a lost cause?
