The violent intensity of the month-old war between Israel and Hamas raises the question of whether Israelis and Palestinians have any empathy for each other.
A generation ago, they used to routinely rub shoulders. Just how tense things are between Israeli Jews and their Arab neighbors is something my colleague Daniel Estrin recently witnessed at Hadassah Hospital in Jerusalem.
In the waiting room, he found two Israeli women shouting at a Palestinian mother whose son was being treated for a beating he received from a Jewish mob. An Israeli tank drives past a field of sunflowers along the border between Israel and the Gaza Strip as they pull out from the Gaza Strip Sunday. At least 10 people died in a strike outside a U.N. school in Gaza shortly after Israel confirmed it was withdrawing some troops from the war-torn area.
"Go away you trash," one yelled. "I would bury you in Gaza."
Two other Israeli women tried to comfort the Palestinian mother. But she was in no mood for reconciliation, and retorts: "What good will your apologies do?"
Such lack of empathy is widespread in Israel, the West Bank and Gaza these days, even in the few communities where Jews and Arabs mix, like Jerusalem.
So much has been lost in just one generation it would seem. Can it be mended? It's not just one side to blame, but a string of bad policies. The entire article is worth reading.

I think the war needs to end already. Here in America, they don't show the funerals of Israeli soldiers, but my relatives say that it's shown all the time there, and the whole nation is crying. I, for one, am heartsick at seeing Gazan children, injured and crying. All of the tunnels have been destroyed. Unless Israel's objective is to take out Hamas completely, then this war has to end.

Best thing to do about Hamas is to make them irrelevant by giving Palestinian people the rights, the land and the dignity that they deserve.

ps very few people in the UK think all the tunnels have been found let alone destroyed.

Still spoiled petulant brat, those palistanians. All "gimme! gimme!! gimme!!!" and tantrums, and tantrums. How about getting a life and a job, and earning all that they want? That's, like, a responsible adult behavior of a group of people, claiming to be a "nation". But, no, they're having a kewl occupation - "gimme!" and tantrums.Best thing to do about Hamas is to make them irrelevant by giving Palestinian people the rights, the land and the dignity that they deserve.

The facts of the matter, historical or pragmatically, means the world will all eventually realize the Palestinians have no basis for their intransigence except Islamic.
And that is unacceptable.
People no longer are allowing themselves to be emotionally manipulated by the Palestinians.
The Palestinians and their supporters should prepare themselves for becoming despised and the objects of derision worldwide.
That is what their racist anti-Semitism deserves.
One thought to think of. I suspect that empathy in this conflict doesn't sell many papers, nor garner many TV ratings, nor even a whole lot of web page hits . . . . .
Best thing to do about Hamas is to make them irrelevant by giving Palestinian people the rights, the land and the dignity that they deserve.
"Deserve" being the key word...
They deserve nothing.
