What I do have a problem with when some 80 years later what's filled the void is so often chaos and violence we are still getting blamed.Just when does this end and they take responsibility for their actions?

In 1947 for instance Palestinians for the very were offered their own state. They refused because they wanted it all and chose war. They lost and are still paying the price.

I also recall in the 90's sometime after the Oslo Accord a report on how much closer peace in the Middle East was compared to Northern Ireland. What an opportunity wasted. Don't think we'll see it again in my lifetime.

Sorry that was to Omeg's post
