"Once more unto the breach my friends, once more.
Or close the breach up with our English dead."

Or Palestinian dead. Or Israeli.

Charging in banners waving in support of victory for the side that we identify as our side is not going to help anyone. And it's very easy when we are far away from the killing fields.

The best and only - and fragile - hope lies in the kind of thing that Jack the Lad tells us about, people trying to build bridges that reach out to people who share so much in common across in the other community. There are still people like that on both sides. We should be trying to help them, not throwing all our energy into vicarious fighting.
