Thanks for this. Especially the recognition that everyone has a piece of the puzzle, and it is not easy to solve. For me, it is most important to think that the people are human beings, not vermin. And one more thing we can do, is ask our Bishop to sign the "Bread not Stones" document urging our bishops to speak in solidarity with the goal of peace-making, to call for a cease-fire, and to work to find humane solutions which will actually give the people civil rights, water, food, medical care, the ability to go and come, (not be locked into cells of apartheid), education and hope. The biggest stretch for this is for the Israelis to recognize the Palestinians as human beings, and as also part of this land. To get to a true one-state solution is my hope. Where people have civil rights, and the right to worship God as they wish.
