No matter where you reside on the political sphere, the loss of innocent life should bother you. I would like to think that we as humans have not totally lost our "humanity", where ideology and fundamentalism is more important than life. The majority of us have not, however it is not a good sign when you hear the actors justifying the killing of innocent children. One side claims they have no other way to fight the enemy’s oppression while the other side claims they have a right to defend themselves by any means. Maybe I am naïve but I have to believe that there must be a better way. Maybe, we have left both sides to their own devices long enough. The international community must intercede against the wills of the warring factions when the conflict starts to affect the broader world. Lets not kid ourselves, 9/11 was an indirect result of the Israeli/Palestinian situation if nothing is done, and this is eventually going to be the flashpoint to a much larger battle that may end everything.
The unrest in the Middle East is so complicated that it is hard to see it ever being resolved by normal diplomatic methods. The thin line between who is right and who is wrong seems to be too blurry.
Here are points of view from both sides.
