The world can go back and forth on whether or not Israel or the Palestinians are right, but the truth is there is no one in control of the Muslim Fundamentalists. These terrorists, regardless of who is sponsoring them or allowing them to attack Israelis are out of control, and Israel continues to retaliate, and in some cases civilians are hurt or killed.
The sad fact is that in todays world the term civilian has no true application, then again it never has. From the begining of time armies have laid waste to civilian populations regardless of an imminent or real threat.
What we would like to belive as civilized society is unreal, it is a term coined by our leaders, regardless of the intentions, mostly to offer a Utopia for its subjicants. And while most people long for peace, it will never come, not in our lives, our children's ...
Man has had war, will wage war and go on killing one another for whatever reason they find until the end of time. Unrealistic? Look at the worlds prisons, they are bulging with the growing criminal population. Crime cannot be solved and war like crime has its agressors, victims and casualties.
The Bible teaches us a great lesson, even with only four people in the world, Cain kills his brother Able, multiply that by a billion, and you will see how far we have come, but in truth we are once again approaching the reality that 1/4 of the worlds population can be killed - in an act of mass terror.
So keep on talking of ways to settle the Israeli Arab conflict, there are no real solutions, there never will be one, not until one side wipes out the other. And then the survivors will turn on themselves.
