Penni; Did you happen to see on PBS "The 50 Years War:
Israel And The Arabs"
Penni it was such a profound documentary, and it covered so much
2 parts about 5hrs total. Very well done it held my attention
start to finish. My wife didn't get it to it ( a lot of grief
you know ) but the whys & hows of all the conflicts,
the magnitude of both insanity and the struggles of all
mediation and negotiation, with heads of state and prime
ministers most all were interviewed.
-----------------
It used tons of archives and was really well done,
To me it was a humbling experience , I had no idea of how complex
and difficult a job many of the peace makers had.
It also caused me to see many of them on both sides as
real sensitive human beings, and gave me a respect for
them beyond what I thought would ever have had.
I'm still in shock to find out how little I knew.
Our news media with it's sound bytes and one liners just
never told the story like this.

Let's see... I'm about 200 posts behind now...
Walter Williams is just fine with me. Especially his writings about the late War of Northern Aggression.
