maybe the solution is to create conditions and an environment where the warder's daughters and sons and the prisoner's daughters and sons won't kill each other.
i think you are approaching this the entirely wrong way. you have to put yourself totally and emotionally in the palestinian's shoes. i know this will happen...if israeli jews wipe out the palestinians, israel will be wiped out. the world will not forgive that.
No I don't. I can empathise with the anger of that would be killer previously mentioned without in any way approving his method of dealing with his anger.
Israel has given absolutely zero reason to let anybody believe they want to wipe out anybody. They want to be left alone in peace, and I believe they would be 100% peaceful with anybody who understands and allows that.
There have been brief truces now and then, but all short lived and all without any acknowledgement of intent to allow the Israel to exist in peace. The Palestinians have never--I repeat NEVER--given any indication that they understand Israel's right to live in peace or that it should ever have any right to do so.
Until their leadership can do that and becomes proactive to ensure that it happens, they are the party who is most wrong and the least deserving of help.
ok...i get it...and if i had to make a choice then as to who gets pushed into the sea, then i am all for the jews being pushed into the sea...given no other alternative between one or the other.
i swear, can't you get out of the finger pointing mode for even a brief moment. i am pretty good at adversarial bargaining...and i think you reflect the israeli governments stance quite well.
I am not finger pointing whatsoever. I am perfectly willing for the Arab people to live in peace, to prosper, and to be in charge of their own destiny whatever the consequences of that might be. Israel also is perfectly willing for the Arab people to live in peace, to prosper, and to be in charge of their own destiny whatever the consequences of that might be.
I am perfectly willing for the Israeli people to live in peace, to prosper, and to be be in charge of their own destiny whatever the consequences of that might be. The Palestinians have not been willing for the Israeli people to live in peace, to prosper, and to be in charge of their own destiny whatever the consequences of that might be.
You seem to think the Palestinians have the moral edge in that scenario.
