I dunno Jack .... The Holy Land has a way of destroying any rationality of thought, humanityt and trust when it comes to peace .... always has. I do believe if fanatics from all sides of the equation did not have their claws into politics, boundries it might be a different story.

Fanatics from all religions sow hate, conspiracies and distrust. They always have a nasty, evil way of achieving seats of power in any political organization and aligning themselves next to seats of corporate power.

As I said before ... if Arabs, and Jews sat down at the table to negotiate and did not see a Jew, or a Muslim facing them, peace and compromise could be achieved.

call me a dreamer ... but that is reality. Until the time comes when we can shake religion from governing our lives we will never see peace in the middle east.
