You haven't got one iota of a clue as to what I want and don't want.

Spare me any more of your slanderous posts.

There is a book titled The Yellow Wind by David Grossman that you might find interesting. Grossman is a well-known Israeli writer who went into the settlements, the courts, the universities, and talked with Palestinians in an attempt to understand their hatred of the Israelis. I found it an exceptional read, written with great compassion for both sides. It is beautifully written and translated. From Beirut to Jerusalem by Thomas Friedman also presents what seemed to me to be a fair assessment of both sides and their complicated history together.
While I am no wiser about answers, I think it helps to understand the problems and the incredible complexity of them before we label any side as morally superior. In fact, about the only conclusion I have reached is that I have a great deal more to learn.
