Horrified and heartbroken at the barrage of attacks by Hamas upon civilians in Israel. Innocent people suffer the consequences of violent extremism, and this kind of terrorism only produces deeper, more intractable problems. My thoughts and hopes are for peace, and for democracy for all people in the region, but such a future is proving ever more elusive, I fear.
@georgetakei This remark marks the end of the massive respect that I have always had for you George. Palestinians have been struggling to survive the ethnic cleansing and ghetto policies of Israel for decades while the USA and most of Europe continue to ignore their plight. The reaction by them was very predictable as will be Israel's disproportionate retaliation. Shame on you for being so one-sided.
