I saw a documentary on Israel/Palestine on PBS last night. They showed a 13-year old girl from a right-wing extremist Israeli settlement, and then interviewed her a dozen years later. When she was 13, she sounded much like you. When she was older, she admitted that she had been filled with a lot of hatred by her elders. Fortunately, she saw the light, and realized much of what she had been taught was morally wrong. Hopefully, you will also outgrow the hatred you have been taught. <<< In Gaza, five years ago, an amusement park opened beside the sea. It was the only one in a deeply impoverished place populated mainly by refugees whose families were forced off their land or out of their villages by the Israelis. "At first, it was very successful," said Walid Al Dirawi, who looks after the deserted ruin of rusting rides and dodgem cars. "Then the shooting started from across the road. The Israeli settlers and soldiers shot it up every weekend, and of course people stayed away." Behind the dodgems is a wall pock-marked with bullet holes, like a shooting gallery. >>> zmag.org
