Hello Christopher, thank you very much for sharing this view with us. There is a concern. I am planning to visit my dear friend in Israel who moved there several year ago. However due to the ongoing conflict and violence taking placr on both sides, I am very much concerned if that is a right thing to do. There are thoughts which speak that it might be an act of supporting violence in a way. Please, can you give me a direction to view that from new perspective? Thank you.
Drop me an email. Go to websites for address. I will respond. You are not the only one with the same dilemma. - basically on taking an action and addressing the possible consequences. Warmest Christopher
I have heard that concern over the years. It always was true. I know this is a hard thing to hear but many of us did not stop visiting in various lands that commit and committed regular atrocities.
If you're visiting to vote in support of the current government that's a statement of support.
Personal view.
I visit my family and friends there regularly. They're all doing the best they can to end the violence and atrocities on both sides and absolutely benefit from love and support.
Also experiencing th occasional siren and missile shower allows a deeper more embodied understanding why things are in a stalemate. People are scared and reactive.

Man, you don't need help to make a decision. Any decision. Really.
True?
Or an idea:
Why doesn't s/he visit you?
If that's easier?

Any dharma support there is beneficial.
