In my view, history has shown that everything IS possible. And even if your view is correct, that peace is impossible or unattainable in the Middle East, I'd still take that arrogant road toward trying to attain it. That, imo, is where the higher virtue lies, not in the continued humiliating oppression of masses of people because history suggests no other alternative is possible.

<< the folly of our current generation is that they have the arrogance to believe that they can achieve what the rest of history has already determined is impossible. >>

All this pessimism about the future. So you would willingly choose war indefinitely.
