<<It happened in Ireland because England and Ireland got tired of The Troubles and wanted them to stop.>> England and Ireland never WANTED the troubles to begin with Nadine. A set of circumstances arose where conflict exploded and it took almost 40 years to come to a peace agreement. By far the majority of people on both sides hated what was happening. Believe me, I lived through it. Its very easy to sit behind your pc in a nicely air conditioned charming Vermont home and decree what whole groups of people thousands of miles away think and don't think. You know "jack" about what the average Joe/Jill Palestinian has to live through or how he/she rationalizes his/her circumstances. Come to think of it you also know "jack" about the average Israeli's routine seeing as you've never even been there! All you see on tv and read about are the fringe elements that unfortunately are running the show in the WB and Gaza. Go visit your beloved Israel for once Nadine and see the conditions on the ground.....maybe then you'll earn a little credibility.
