For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.An Israeli commentator on Channel 4 news last night was saying now maybe was the time to "think the unthinkable" : ie a one nation solution of Arabs and Jews in a democratic state (as bit like a larger and more balanced Israel), although he admitted that it may yet be an idea ahead of its time.
You feel that now is the time to try.
Or will be soon.
I don't think it helps to see this merely in terms of religion and religious dogma. Antisemitism and Islamophobia sadly go hand in hand. This is primarily a conflict of territory not religion. Sort out the territory and I think you are a long way down the road. That may be pie in the sky but it's more doable than trying religious reconciliation.
Sadly you have people all over the world spouting nonsense about whatever religion it is they don't like, probably one reason why this is so univerally divisive.

They're your words. I wouldn't have put it like that.
//If I were an Israeli I'd look to leave for a peaceful land.//
That could be because you're not.

Mods don't work to a rota. All may be present at any one time - or none.
