I don't often talk about politics here, but I probably will more and more as time goes on.



My only thought on this matter is about the soul of Israel. I consider myself to be someone who has an interest in both the Israeli people and their Arab neighbors. My step-father is a Jordanian immigrant with roots in Palestine and many people close to me have roots in Israel. When I see pictures and accounts of the recent fighting I can relate to everyone involved. I've been trying to imagine what would lead me take children to write messages on shells meant to be fired across a border. I think it would take a complete lack of empathy for the other side, it would require me to dehumanize them. If that's possible, it's possible to inflict any horror upon someone. I understand that land is worth your life, but is it worth your soul?



Of course the same should be asked of those on the northern side of the border as well.
