Terror incites more terror and I fear that unless some drastic measures are taken, this cycle of death will only continue to escalate into the foreseeable future. I weep for both the Jew and the Muslim. This conflict benefits neither as they continue to fight each other. they continue to hate each other. they continue to raise their kids to hate each other.
The only one winners in this conflict are the weapons dealers, the resource oligarchs, and groups hell bent on inciting terror. Innocence is lost at a far younger age than normal and darkness begins to rein its head in a land that is supposed to be the center of light and hope for the world.
I also look at disgust as I watch the media descend on the land of Israel like a pack of vultures. They lurk nearby watching, waiting to seize something, and idea, an incitement, or even false truths to manipulate their views to an agenda of their design.
The carrion feeders lurk in all corners of political spectrum. They spin tales to make money of of violence and tragedy. The words they speak are hand picked to help perpetrate the cycle of death, fear, and hatred that plagues Israel (and the Middle East at large)
As there is no one media station that actually seeks to end the violence and hatred, I will be one who will attempt to do so. I offer my prayers to the Holy Land. May we soon see a day where Palestinians raise children in a world where they do not need to hate their neighbors. May we soon see a day where Israeli children do not have to instantly become soldiers as soon as they become adults.
I am not naive enough to think that these words will bring about the change that I hope for, but perhaps it can help lay the foundation for the snowball that once it has gathered enough momentum, can reach towards its ultimate goal quickly.
A goal of peace and light.
