That is the only option. However, as I've been told countless times, it's a hopelessly idealistic one. Both sides would rather remain as is, and fight to the death, rather than show an iota of tolerance!! Headdesk Well said! That is the only option.

It requires a leap of faith, but this approach has worked, for the most part, in Ireland. That's the only approach that can work, short of annihilation. http://woodstockwalkforpeace.wordpress.com The fact is that there’s plenty of wrong on both sides of this conflict, and the only way to achieve peace is for both sides to renounce violence.

I was reading one journalists memoir of his visit to the Holy Land, and he said the exact same thing! He had to independently go into the Palestinian areas, and he said that they wouldn't provide him with anything: not even a car or an escort. And he went on to talk about the disparity in such a small region. I wish I could remember his name! That's why I believe everything should be taken with a grain of salt. The news that reaches us is so very often biased... and that includes the Arab/Muslim media as well, unfortunately. Too true!

When people visit Israel, they are often whisked off to the tourist spots -- the holy cities and places. They are carefully guided AWAY FROM the prisons that are Gaza and the West Bank. At least that's how it seems to me. I wish we could all tour Gaza before jumping to conclusions about the situation.

Yes, it's quite ironic how this Peter guy talks about 'right vs. wrong' as if he actually knows who is right, as if he's actually ever stepped foot in Palestine! EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEENTERESTING x)
