Paul asked the question earlier should the muslims just give up the fight and go elsewhere? Well, the flipside of that argument is the question some Jews often ask: If you were a tiny country surrounded by millions of people that hate you and will stop at nothing to exterminate you wouldn't you make moves to protect your people?
Well, wouldn't you?
I don't agree with everything they've done to accomplish that but I do know one thing: arguing endlessly about who's to blame and who is stealing and who blew up this cafe full of people or that bus station etc isn't going to solve it, it's only going to snowball the hate.
I'm hoping there is at least some glimmer of hope in all this protesting going on in the ME. As in maybe the youth of the region are finally fed up with all the old world bullshit thinking that's kept much of them living as near savages for so long.
Call me a dreamer, call me a "jew lover", call me whatever you have to. (Trust me, if any jews come in here and spout arguments that I don't agree with I'll be the first one debating them for it, and I won't be trotting out the "eat shit" argument either), I choose to hope against all hope that there are at least some people over there who are enlightened in their thinking enough to see what I see... that if you want peace the answer is simple: stop fighting, stop hating, and start working on solutions.
Btw, look at the responses some of these countries have to even the more peaceful protest marches. Tear gas, bloodshed, more killing. That tells me the old world establishment is afraid. Afraid of change, afraid of enlightened thinking, afraid of people actually having a few more of the basic civil rights we in other parts of the world take for granted.
Change is coming. Sooner or later, but I have a feeling it's definitely coming. Good or bad, I have no idea. Probably a mix of both if I know anything about how things work in the world.
Cheers.
