Since I was a child, I have always heard about wars in Middle East, it was always a routine in TV news: Iraqis, Lebanese, Palestinians, Egyptians and Israelis.
What happens in that place? Is Israel a sacred land and a forever accursed land?
Is there any solution?
In my opinion the key is in the education, children must be educated in the respect to others cultures, costumes and religions. However they are educated in the hate and they grow in the hate and their more appreciated target is killing the enemy and throwing out of their sacred land. Their lives have as goal the hate and the destruction.
Actually there are no winners, it is always left the hate and they condemn to their children to the destruction.
In addition, the extremism religious is a useful and effective tool to empower the hate, it gets everyone to obey and fight without making questions.
What would happen if our children had been educated in the extreme hate towards the Germans due to WWII, and also the other way around?
I wish THAT SOMEone IN THE MIDDLE EAST WOULD listen TO this message, but regrettably everyone is deaf over there.

(1) better: their favorite target
Well said. I agree with your diagnosis. The world has to learn to celebrate differences, dissent, forgiveness, and reconciliation. And many of the ills of the world are passed from parents to their children.
Rabbis and Imams continually call to holy war.That is the only thing that they want to celebrate. Thanks Matt.
