Thank you, Gurwinder. I live in a majority Muslim country on the other side of the world from all of this where people tend to have a completely irrational view of the conflict - i.e., based only on religious partisanship. The longer I live and the more I learn about what's happening and what has happened I am more and more convinced that Israel, while far from being wholly innocent, are fighting for their own historical right to survival, and peace.

Precisely, and yes, their enemies are instructed in their Quran to torture and murder every Jew,

(the little Satan), and every Christian, (the great Satan).

For the committed Muslim, it is their reason for living, and their parents openly lament that they

have only a few sons to sacrifice

unto allah, their god.

And if they had time and opportunity, they would murder me for not capitalizing the name of their god.
