Day 1 of the 2nd year of captivity for the Israeli Hostages .... with some real hope on the horizon. I just wish my way would have been done ... which would have been to have released, at least all who are alive, yesterday - on the anniversary of the Massacre.
I use words like massacre because while that word is extreme on the other hand/side -- including main stream media - words used are often more extreme than the reality and they inflame. The idea of fighting Fire With Fire has merit and in a "marketing" world ... RopeADope doesn't work. In a world where it truly seems as if many leaders are wrong and willing to do wrongs ... the violence of words is the least of the problems.
WHERE is the Humanity? Where is Compassion? On "our" side -- how did Menachem Begin come to make peace?
How did Arafat almost come to peace ... and he did get somewhere. The loss of the Palestinians when Rabin came to an agreement was due, it is said, to the Arabs missing an opportunity BUT as I recall that was the Israeli Arabs who boycotted the election - not the Palestinians. PERHAPS it was really up to the Jewish Israelis to have voted right, left, PEACE.. and the Parlimentary way of democracy didn't work for peace that time!
