As the world marks 80 years since VE Day — a moment once celebrated as the end of global warfare — today's headlines paint a far more troubling picture. From the devastation in Gaza and the ongoing conflict in Ukraine, to rising tensions between India and Pakistan, we find ourselves confronting a world once again on the brink. In this episode of Pathway to Peace, we reflect on the lessons of the past and ask whether humanity has truly learned from history, or if we are doomed to repeat it. We explore the root causes of these global crises, the failure of international institutions, and the urgent need for justice and moral leadership. With insight from experts, giving spiritual reflections, this episode is both a warning and a call to action — to build a world where peace is not just a promise, but a reality.
