Conflict Illistrated



I wanted to share this movie because I found it very striking, interesting and it carries a really good message. The murals in this clip are located in Belfast, which is in Northern Ireland, and are an artistic result of the conflict.

My favorite part of this video? The message: "The real and lasting victories are those of peace and not war."
If only we could all operate with this in mind.
