We are not in disagreement. Now. We could try to minimize the damage that will
overwhelm both peoples. Especially the Palestinians. Isn't that worth a try?
It means taking a hard look at the situation and dealing with it realistically.
We are beyond peace. There was never a chance for peace. The phony peace plans
were really economic plans for the region. They were selfish, shortsighted and
stupid, on the parts of all the elites involved on all sides. Today instead of
microscopic local conflicts, the Middle East is facing a regional war with the
possibility of standardizing nuclear war.
The best we can do now is minimize the death toll.
Welcome to another fuck up brought to you by the New World Order.
