The ME has to do its thing. They don't need us to do it for them.They have to work thru it by themselves. People get killed. That's just the way it is. We didn't dump the king without bloodshed, and we didn't do anything else, from ending slavery to getting union rights to the Civil Rights fight, without blood being shed. Nobody can ease the path for them.
