When I started to write this diary I listed some points about Israel and Palestine and Hamas. I listed some facts about recent events.
But then I realized that I could not write a single sentence that someone would not bitterly dispute. Even if I wrote a single sentence someone would accuse me of being a biased liar.
OK I get that.
But I would argue that this is a complex conflict. There is no right and wrong. It's easy to write that X is evil and Y is good. Just not really true. So just like any sentence that I write could be disputed, any comment that you write could also be disputed.
There is only one truth here. Its reggae, from the artist Burning Spear. Its about how both sides need to find peace that will benefit both. That may sound hopelessly optimistic in today's conflict, but that must be the resolution.
There is enough for one and all
So why should one man take it all?
The dead make none, the weak make few
the strong make many,, the world should know...
