Pointing Fingers in the Middle East


The crazy war between Palestine and Israel continues, and nobody knows what's going on. It appears that no person or persons are in control of things on either side, or any sides if you include Lebanon and Iran. Certainly not the elected leaders of those countries. It's like a sudden food fight in the cafeteria, except instead of food it's weapons and instead of children it's grown-ups.

The latest horrible display of savagery occurred today when an explosion in a hospital in Gaza "supposedly" killed 500 people. Surely it was intentional, but who's intention was it? Israel claims it was a misfired Palestinian rocket, and Palestine insists it was an Israeli missile.

One logical explanation is that war is a game played by unimaginative men who can't think of anything else to do with themselves in this life. I have cried enough tears and no longer care how many more people die on either side, because you know what? Everyone dies eventually, one way or another. War is just one of the ways, and it's been quite popular for centuries.
