Just an observation from a very interested observer. Please don't see this as an inflammatory discussion. It is heated, but for the most part respectful. We are dealing with centuries worth of built up feelings on all sides. This is really a microcosm of the larger debate. I am fascinated by the historical analysis from all parties, as well as the coming back to the bottom line of what it takes to make and hold the peace. The discussion need not be bland, just civil. Thanks so much for the insights you are giving to one who thought he understood the ins and outs of all this. Please.....continue.

All the best,

Mick
