>Bingo. Every few years a Nobel Peace Prize is awarded to someone or other for their efforts in bringing peace to the Middle East, but peace never comes. For the simple reason that neither side wants to peacefully coexist with the other. Never have, never will. Both sides have their own version of "push them into the sea."

>There is a picture in the current issue of Newsweek (U.S. weekly news magazine) that really bothered me. It is of a Lebanese child lying dead in some godforsaken rubble. The victim could have been a young Israeli kid and it would have hit me exactly the same way. These poor kids don't have any say in the matter, they were just born into age-old hatreds that never end.
