They manipulate emotive perception just like everybody else
A shame this involves people dying on all fronts though

A few years ago ...
... I heard a discussion on the radio between the two sides in this one and both were quoting how their version of god's truth had given them the land a few thousand years ago. That was the moment I realised this one will just run and run

Bollocks isn't it?
I think what fucks me off the most are people who take sides, how fucking blinkered can you get? Neither of them are at all interested in peace, as it hasn't been on any agenda for the last two hundred years. All justified ultimately in the name of some religious crap. The Palestinians make out they are a community under oppression, and are fed weapons by some of the richest countries on the planet, and the Israeli's enjoy their modern bellicose stance with the economic military aide of the most powerful nation on earth. Truly a recipe for understanding and compromise.
I'm actually quite immune to emotional responses to photographs of the horrors of this conflict such as was on the front page of the Independent today; it's simply pointless getting emotively concerned in a conflict where no one genuinely want's a solution.

I think each side genuinely wants the other side wiped off the face of the Earth.
